About No Saint

At No Saint, we're building a different kind of technology-driven consumer product company. We develop next-generation nicotine products with a focus on innovation, product quality, and responsible commercialization. By combining science, engineering, and technology, we're helping shape the future of the industry.

We're growing quickly. Our products were recognized as The Grocer's Top Product Launch of 2025 , and we're expanding into new markets. As the business grows, so does the complexity of our financial operations. Strong financial foundations are essential to supporting that growth, helping leadership make informed decisions, and enabling the business to scale with confidence.

About The Role

Behind every growing company is a strong finance function.

As our Accountant, you'll play a key role in building the financial foundation that supports No Saint's continued growth. You'll take ownership of the full accounting cycle, partnering closely with our Controller and Director of Finance to deliver accurate financial reporting, improve accounting processes, and support budgeting, forecasting, and other financial initiatives as the company continues to grow.

This is an individual contributor role with significant ownership. You'll have experienced finance leaders to mentor and support you, but you'll be trusted to manage the day-to-day accounting function independently. As No Saint continues to grow, you'll have opportunities to contribute beyond the fundamentals by improving systems, strengthening financial processes, and supporting initiatives that prepare the business for its next stage of growth.

If you're looking for an opportunity to take ownership, expand your responsibilities, and grow alongside a fast-moving company, you'll find plenty of opportunities to make a meaningful impact while continuing to develop your career.

What You'll Do

As a key contributor to No Saint's financial foundation, you'll have visibility across the business while working closely with Finance leadership to support accurate reporting, strengthen accounting processes, and help the company continue to grow.

Your responsibilities will include:

• Own the complete accounting cycle from data entry through to draft financial statements, fully and independently
• Process and reconcile all accounts payable and accounts receivable transactions accurately and on time
• Process vendor and supplier payments, including scheduling, authorization follow-up, and maintaining accurate payment records
• Manage payroll processing and ensure compliance with applicable payroll regulations
• Maintain the general ledger, perform month-end and year-end close procedures, and prepare trial balances
• Perform bank, credit card, and balance sheet reconciliations on a regular and timely basis
• Manage inventory tracking and cost accounting to support product operations
• Track and report HST/GST/QST remittances and support all provincial and federal tax filings
• Manage cash flow tracking and provide regular cash position reporting
• Prepare and maintain accurate financial reports for internal use by the leadership team
• Produce draft financial statements (income statement, balance sheet, cash flow) for review by the Controller and Director of Finance
• Support the Controller and Director of Finance in budgeting, forecasting, and variance analysis
• Maintain organized and audit-ready documentation for all transactions
• Liaise with external accounting firms to support annual audit preparation and tax filings
• Continuously improve accounting workflows and identify efficiencies in existing processes
• Leverage AI and digital tools to improve the accuracy and speed of your accounting processes

What We're Looking For

• 3–6 years of hands-on accounting experience with the ability to independently own the full accounting cycle.
• University degree or college diploma in Accounting, Finance, or Business Administration.
• Working toward or holding a CPA designation is a strong asset.
• Experience with full-cycle bookkeeping, month-end close, accounts payable, accounts receivable, payroll, and bank reconciliations.
• Exposure to inventory and cost accounting within a product-based company is a strong asset.
• Experience with Quebec and Canadian taxation, including HST, GST, and QST remittances, is a plus.
• Previous experience in a lean startup, manufacturing, or technology-driven product company is a strong asset.
• Solid understanding of GAAP and Canadian accounting standards.
• Experience with Odoo is a major asset. Experience with QuickBooks Online (QBO) is also valued, particularly during our transition to Odoo.
• Strong Excel skills. Experience with reporting or dashboard tools is an asset.
• Comfortable using AI tools and digital automation to improve accounting processes and efficiency.
• Exceptional attention to detail with a high standard for accuracy and documentation.
• Self-starter who can manage competing priorities, meet deadlines, and work independently.
• Comfortable partnering with senior stakeholders and asking thoughtful questions when needed.
• High degree of professional ethics, integrity, and sound judgment.
• Excellent written and verbal English communication skills. French is a strong asset.

What Success Looks Like

Within your first few months, you'll begin to:

• Take ownership of the full accounting cycle with confidence and minimal oversight.
• Build trusted relationships across Finance and the broader business.
• Strengthen accounting processes, documentation, and internal controls that support a growing company.
• Contribute to budgeting, forecasting, and financial reporting that helps leadership make informed decisions.
• Identify opportunities to improve efficiency through better systems, automation, and AI-enabled workflows.
• Become a trusted partner to Finance leadership as No Saint continues to grow.
