Director of Accounting

$172k - $188k per year
Full-time

bluecatnetworks

We're BlueCat—a Great Place to Work for good reason. Our team solves critical network challenges for some of the world's largest organizations. In simple terms, we manage the systems that keep networks running smoothly, securely, and reliably—the backbone infrastructure that powers digital transformation for enterprises globally. Our Intelligent Network Operations platform delivers and enables AI-driven agentic ops at scale, automating and simplifying how companies manage, secure, and optimize their networks.


But what makes us different is how we work: we believe great work happens in an environment where you're trusted, heard, and supported. With teams globally, we're building a workplace culture that values collaboration and integrity as much as innovation. If you're looking to advance your career with a company that invests in its people, this is it.

We are looking for a Director of Accounting to join our Finance team!

About the Role
You will own day-to-day accounting operations, including the close, technical accounting, and audit readiness. You will lead a team of 9 (3 direct reports) and play a central role in integrating systems and future acquisitions. This is a high-impact role at a dynamic, fast-paced company.

What You’ll Do

Accounting Operations & Close

  • Own the monthly, quarterly, and annual close: set the calendar and drive deadlines across cross-functional teams.
  • Oversee GL, A/P, and revenue accounting, including account reconciliations and journal entry review.
  • Review revenue recognition under ASC 606, including complex contracts, multiple-element arrangements, and deferred revenue.
  • Own equity accounting, including stock-based compensation and cap table reconciliation.

Reporting & Compliance

  • Prepare and review monthly financial statements and flux analysis, and provide inputs to management reporting.
  • Own regulatory, tax-support, and lender/bank covenant compliance reporting.
  • Partner with external auditors to deliver clean audits, including PBC lists, technical memos, and timely issue resolution.

Controls, Policy & Process

  • Design, document, and maintain accounting policies, procedures, and internal controls.
  • Identify and lead process improvements and automation (e.g., close tooling, NetSuite workflows, reconciliation and reporting automation) with measurable outcomes.
  • Leverage AI tools such as Claude to automate manual accounting work (e.g., flux commentary, reconciliations, journal entry prep, and documentation) while maintaining strong controls and review standards.

M&A Integration

  • Lead accounting due diligence support and post-close integration: opening balance sheets, purchase price accounting (ASC 805), system migration, and harmonization of policies and procedures.

Leadership

  • Lead, coach, and develop the accounting team; set goals, delegate authority, and build a strong bench.
  • Serve as a trusted business partner to senior leadership, translating accounting issues into clear, actionable guidance.

What You Bring

  • Bachelor’s degree in Accounting; CPA required.
  • 8+ years of progressive accounting experience, including 4+ years managing people.
  • Public accounting or audit background (Big 4 a plus) and industry experience in technology.
  • Deep US GAAP expertise, especially ASC 606; working knowledge of ASC 805, 842, and 718.
  • Hands-on experience with an ERP (NetSuite preferred) and advanced Excel skills.
  • Proven track record improving close, controls, and processes.
  • Hands-on experience using AI tools (e.g., Claude) to streamline accounting workflows, with a practical understanding of how to validate AI output and keep it audit-ready.
  • Experience with M&A accounting, purchase price accounting, and integrations (strongly preferred).
  • Strong analytical, communication, and leadership skills; comfortable working independently and adapting to shifting priorities.

This position offers a salary range of $172,000 - $188,000 CAD per year plus participation in a discretionary bonus plan. Final compensation will be based on skills, experience, and qualifications. The role is for an existing vacancy.
