Job Description

Senior Accountant responsible for full-cycle accounting at KOHO, managing financial activities for a fintech company. Transforming finance function towards a bank-grade operation with increasing automation.

Responsibilities:

  • Performing key month end activities (preparation of journal entries and reconciliations) with accuracy and efficiency, delivering "audit-ready" working papers that require minimal review.
  • Determining accounting treatment for areas like IFRS 9 loan provisioning, debt facility covenants, and equity-based compensation, ensuring our treatment is compliant and well-documented.
  • Executing and documenting internal controls to ensure our financial data is accurate/secure and managing monthly tax compliance tasks (such as GST/HST filings) to keep us in good standing with auditors and external regulators.
  • Identifying manual bottlenecks in our reconciliation processes and actively working to automate them using our tech stack Netsuite and emerging AI tools.
  • Assisting with the transition to a schedule 1 Bank by supporting data migration, setting up new GL structures and preparing for new regulatory reporting requirements.

Requirements:

  • You hold a CPA designation with 3-5+ years of accounting experience, preferably with a background in public practice (audit) or a complex industry environment (fintech/banking).
  • You have a strong working knowledge of IFRS and are comfortable applying accounting standards to real-world business scenarios without needing constant guidance.
  • You are an advanced Excel user and proficient with ERP systems (NetSuite preferred). You have a curiosity for AI and automation, always looking for a "better way" to solve repetitive problems.
  • You take immense pride in the accuracy of your work. You don't just "roll forward" spreadsheets; you understand the underlying business logic and proactively flag anomalies.
  • You thrive in a fast-paced environment where priorities can shift, and you communicate financial concepts clearly to non-finance stakeholders.

Benefits:

  • Competitive compensation & equity
  • Generous vacation + Wellness days + Flex Days + holiday closure
  • Remote-first environment + coworking support + yearly all hands retreat
  • Access to coaching & growth programs
  • Parental top-up & leave policies
  • Comprehensive health benefits
  • Power-up budgets for books, home office setup, phone & internet, AI tools, and professional development
