Montréal, QC
Senior Level
Full-Time

About the role

We are looking for a dynamic and curious finance professional to join our consolidation team in Montreal. Are you intrigued by CGI's financial results — from the operating to the legal and consolidated view? Do you want to deepen your expertise in the challenges of a global, growing organization? If so, we can offer you this opportunity.

As a Senior Consultant in consolidation, you will support the production of monthly operational results (RMM), consolidated financial statements, and quarterly notes to the consolidated financial statements. You will collaborate closely with various internal experts, including accounting policy, financial planning and analysis, tax, treasury, and legal teams. You will also play a key role in projects such as accounting for acquisitions, process improvements, and implementing new financial reporting tools.

We are looking for someone who is not only technically strong but also intellectually curious — someone eager to explore complex topics such as debt and financing structures, foreign exchange (FX) and hedging strategies, and stock-based compensation. Whether you already bring deep expertise in these areas or a strong willingness to learn, your analytical mindset and commitment to continuous improvement will be key to your success.
