Director of Finance - Tech Startup

STAN is the largest provider of AI solutions for HOA and Condo Property Managers. We're using cutting-edge, patented AI technology to build solutions that enhance life for residents of more than 2.5 million+ homes across North America — and we're on a mission to build the world's first AI property manager. We've been recognized by Rogers, FedEx, George Brown College, StartUp Canada, the Waterloo Accelerator Centre, and more — and we're just getting started. We're looking for a hands-on finance professional to help build and scale our Finance function — a rare chance to shape how Finance works at Stan from the ground up, not just execute an existing playbook. Reporting directly to the Head of Finance, you'll get a front-row seat to how a fast-growing AI startup runs, with real ownership over key parts of our day-to-day finance operations as you help build stronger reporting, planning, systems and financial insights as the company grows.
You'll work across accounting operations, FP&A, systems, automation and strategic analysis, with real ownership from day one.

Compliance: Support sales tax, compliance, SRED process and other recurring finance requirements.
Planning & Forecasting: Support the annual operating plan, forecasting, and cash-flow/runway visibility.
Strategic Finance: Identify cost-saving opportunities and build the business cases behind major investments and capital-allocation decisions.
