North York | Full-time, Permanent, On-siteThe role
Envy Consulting has been engaged by a global consumer products company to hire a Senior Financial Analyst for its Canadian head office. The company’s brands are household names sold through every major retailer in the country, and its Canadian finance team is adding this role to go deeper on commercial performance. This is not a close-the-books seat. The team already has people doing budgets, forecasts and reporting. This role was created so someone could spend their time on the question that matters to the business: which products, customers and channels make money, which don’t, and what to do about it. You will report to a newly promoted Commercial Finance Manager and work day to day with the heads of Sales, Marketing and Channel Marketing.What you’ll own
