Candidates must demonstrate a high degree of initiative, attention to detail, and the ability to work independently. Excellent interpersonal and customer relations skills are essential, along with the ability to communicate diplomatically and professionally with internal and external stakeholders. Proficiency in financial systems, ERP systems, and Microsoft Office is required, as well as strong time management and organizational skills. A high degree of judgment and confidentiality is crucial due to the sensitive nature of the role. A CPA designation and 7-10 years of experience in a similar financial leadership role are necessary, as well as IFRS experience. Experience in the Waste Management Industry would be considered an asset, but is not required.
