The posting

About the client: Specializes in products for retail stores, wholesale, and distribution partners.

Role Overview - Chief Financial Officer (CFO)

Seeking an experienced, hands-on CFO to lead financial operations, strengthen financial controls, and oversee the transition from our existing in-house financial platform to QuickBooks Online (QBO).

We are looking for a finance leader who understands the complexities of wholesale distribution, particularly inventory accounting, cost of goods sold, purchasing, vendor payables, and gross margin management.

This individual will play a critical role in designing and implementing our future accounting processes, ensuring financial accuracy throughout the system migration, and building a scalable finance function to support continued business growth.

The ideal candidate combines CFO-level financial expertise with practical experience in inventory-intensive businesses and accounting systems implementation. This is not a traditional bookkeeping role. We need someone who can lead the finance function while personally driving critical aspects of the transformation project.

  • Lead monthly, quarterly, and annual financial reporting and close processes.
  • Prepare and analyze financial statements, management reports, budgets, and forecasts.
  • Develop cash flow forecasts and improve working capital management.
  • Monitor revenue, gross margins, operating expenses, and overall financial performance.
  • Provide actionable financial insights and recommendations to executive leadership.
  • Establish standardized accounting procedures and financial reporting practices.  Inventory Accounting and Wholesale Distribution
  • Oversee inventory valuation, cost of goods sold (COGS), landed costs, purchase-price variances, inventory adjustments, and shrinkage.
  • Reconcile inventory subledgers and warehouse inventory reports with the general ledger.
  • Analyze gross margins, inventory turns, purchasing trends, and working capital.
  • Establish controls to ensure inventory movements are accurately reflected in financial records.
  • Work closely with purchasing, warehouse operations, and sales teams to investigate discrepancies.
  • Develop financial reporting that provides visibility into product profitability and inventory performance.
  • Ensure consistent application of accounting policies across inventory transactions and financial reporting.  QuickBooks Online Migration and Implementation
  • Lead the transition from the existing in-house financial platform to QuickBooks Online.
  • Assess current accounting workflows, data quality, financial reporting, and system limitations.
  • Develop the migration roadmap, implementation timeline, and project milestones.
  • Design the chart of accounts and financial reporting structure.
  • Establish data-mapping procedures for the general ledger, accounts payable, accounts receivable, vendors, customers, and inventory-related transactions.
  • Coordinate with internal stakeholders, software vendors, and technical implementation partners.
  • Evaluate integration requirements between QBO and existing inventory, warehouse management, purchasing, and sales systems.
  • Develop and execute migration testing, reconciliation procedures, and financial validation controls.
  • Ensure opening balances and migrated financial data are accurate before go-live.
  • Establish post-implementation controls, reporting procedures, and ongoing reconciliation processes.
  • Identify opportunities to automate financial workflows and reduce manual data entry.  Accounts Payable, Receivable, and Working Capital
  • Oversee accounts payable, accounts receivable, vendor reconciliations, and customer balances.
  • Improve visibility into payment obligations, collections, and cash requirements.
  • Evaluate vendor payment terms and opportunities to improve working capital.
  • Establish procedures for invoice matching, payment approvals, and account reconciliations.
  • Monitor aging reports and resolve discrepancies with vendors and customers.  Process Improvement and Internal Controls
  • Document accounting workflows and develop standard operating procedures.
  • Strengthen financial controls and approval processes.
  • Identify inefficiencies and implement automation where appropriate.

  • Advanced Excel skills and experience with financial analysis and reporting tools.
  • Excellent written and verbal English communication skills.

  • CPA, CMA, or equivalent professional accounting qualification.
