- Lead the preparation of the annual budget in partnership with store managers and the President
- Manage banking relationships, insurance renewals, and lease administration
- Identify and pursue grants, bursaries, rebates, and hiring credits that benefit the organization
- Review all cost centres and identify opportunities for improvement
