Process Improvement & Scalability

• Review and optimize existing multi-entity finance processes, identifying inefficiencies and inconsistencies between U.S. and Canadian operations.
• Design and implement improved controls, documentation, and standard operating procedures.
• Identify and lead opportunities for automation and system improvements (ERP, reporting, reconciliation tools) to improve efficiency, speed, and visibility.
• Develop and execute a roadmap for the future-state finance function, balancing near-term needs with long-term scalability.
• Lead the accounting team through acquisitions and integrations, including purchase accounting, systems/process alignment, and post-close reporting.
