About Liquid Rubber Liquid Rubber is a Canadian based e-commerce company that provides DIY homeowners with cost effective waterproofing and protective coating solutions through straightforward and reliable technical support using professional grade products. Most of our products are sold online and after years of consistent annual growth, we know we are just scratching the surface of our potential. Liquid Rubber is adding key talent to the team to continue years of solid growth.

The Role We are looking for a highly detailed-orientated Finance Manager to own the day-today financial operations of our e-commerce business. This is a hands-on role requiring someone who asks the right questions before acting, documenting their work thoroughly, ad is genuinely motivated to improve the process they inherit. You will be responsible for the accuracy of our financial data across multiple platforms and you'll work closely with the Director of Finance to ensure our reporting reflects reality. If something doesn’t add up, we expect you to flag it - not work around it.

What Success Looks Like

First 90 Days - Foundation & Accuracy All recurring processes - understanding of AR, AP, month end close. Month-end close is completed on time with full hands-on ownership. Discrepancies and anomalies are flagged proactively - nothing is let slide or worked around. Understanding the sales channels and how the business works. Questions are being asked regularly; the Director of Finance is never learning about a problem after the fact.

By Month Six - Ownership & Improvement Month-end close is owned end-to-end and completed consistently without guidance. Monthly consolidation of entities. YoY and MoM variance analysis. Ownership of sales tax filings and GST/HST filings. The finance team is operating with clearer expectations and greater consistency. Help Director of Finance with year end close and communications with external auditors.

By Year One - Strategic Consultant Financial reporting is accurate and reliable to support confident business decisions. The close cycle is measurably faster or more accurate than at the start of tenure. At least one reporting tool, template, or workflow has been built or meaningfully improved and adopted by the team. The compliance calendar is fully owned with no missed deadlines or remittances. Variances and trends in the numbers are being flagged and explained proactively, not just reported.

Key Responsibilities

1. Accounts Receivable (AR) Management Oversee invoicing, billing, and collections to ensure timely and accurate revenue recognition across all channels. Monitor customer account balances, aging reports, and follow up on overdue accounts with appropriate escalation. Reconcile AR records against platform-level data (Amazon, Shopify) and flag discrepancies immediately for review.

2. Accounts Payable (AP) Management Supervise end-to-end AP functions: invoice processing, vendor payments, three-way matching, and reconciliation. Ensure invoices are coded to the correct accounts and cost centres before approval; escalate coding questions rather than guessing. Optimize payment timing to support cash flow while maintaining vendor relationships. Maintain a clean, current AP aging report and resolve outstanding items before month-end close. Manage vendor communications professionally and document all dispute resolutions.

3. Internal Controls & Compliance Maintain and strengthen internal controls over financial reporting; document all control procedures clearly. Ensure compliance with relevant legislation including the Income Tax Act, HST/GST/US sales tax, WSIB, payroll remittances, and corporate tax filings. Prepare and file statutory returns on schedule; maintain a compliance calendar with no items falling through the cracks.

4. Financial Reporting & Month-End Close Own the month-end close process: accruals, prepayments, bank reconciliations, and intercompany entries. Produce monthly management reports with variance commentary - don’t just report the numbers; explain them. Maintain audit-ready books at all times; documentation should be thorough enough for a third party to follow.

5. Process Improvement & Systems Thinking Continuously evaluate existing workflows and identify opportunities to reduce manual effort, improve accuracy, and shorten close cycles. Bring forward process improvement proposals in writing with a clear problem statement, proposed solution, and expected impact.

6. Team Leadership & Development Supervise and mentor junior finance staff; set clear expectations and provide timely, constructive feedback. Model the detail-oriented, question-first behaviours expected of the team. Foster a culture of continuous improvement and accountability within the finance function.

Qualifications & Experience CPA designation. 5+ years of progressive experience in accounting or finance, with at least a year in a supervisory or lead role. Advanced proficiency in Excel. Demonstrated ability to investigate financial discrepancies, reconcile variances, identify root causes, and implement practical, sustainable solutions. Strong technical aptitude with the ability to quickly learn and effectively utilize new financial systems, ERP platforms, and software applications. Excellent organizational and project management skills, with the ability to manage multiple priorities and consistently meet deadlines. Strong written and verbal communication skills, with the ability to present financial information clearly to both financial and non-financial audiences. Demonstrated leadership, sound judgment, and a collaborative approach to partnering with cross-functional teams. Proactive, solutions-oriented mindset with a commitment to continuous improvement and process optimization.
