- Finance Associate/Analyst
- Location: 7 Rimini Mews, Mississauga, ON L5N 4K1
- Job Type: Full-Time, Permanent
- About Farm Girl
- Farm Girl is a Canadian better-for-you cereal and granola company on a serious growth trajectory. We’ve built a strong foundation across Canadian grocery and we’re now expanding into the US, with launches at Sprouts and other major retailers. We’re a small, hands-on team that ships real product, moves fast, and is building something we’re proud of.
- About the Role
- We’re hiring a Finance Associate/Analyst to be the backbone of our finance function. You’ll report directly to the CFO and Controller — meaning daily mentorship and real exposure to how a growing CPG business is run financially.
- Day to day, you’ll own the bookkeeping, AP, and AR that keep the business running. But this is not a narrow seat: as the most junior member of a lean, senior team, you’ll flex into whatever the business needs — reconciliations, month-end support, reporting, analysis, and ad-hoc projects.
- If you want to learn corporate finance from the ground up with people who’ll invest in you, this is the role.
- What You’ll Do
- Own day-to-day bookkeeping: process vendor invoices, code to GL, run weekly payment runs (EFT, wire, cheque), generate customer invoices, and apply cash receipts
- Reconcile retailer remittances and work through deduction backup including chargebacks, MCB, shortages, freight claims, and promotional clawbacks
- Reconcile bank and credit card accounts monthly
- Process employee expense reports and maintain clean, audit-ready records
- Support month-end close and assist with financial reporting
- Build spreadsheets and pull data to support analysis, budgeting, and decision-making
- Flex into ad-hoc finance projects as the company scales across Canada and the US
- What We’re Looking For
- 1–4 years of accounting, bookkeeping, or finance experience (new grads with a strong internship welcome)
- Accounting or finance degree, or working toward a CPA designation
- Strong Excel skills and comfort working with numbers and data
- Experience with Xero or a comparable cloud accounting system (an asset)
- Detail-oriented, organized, and eager to take on more than the job description
- Clear, professional written communication
- A genuine desire to grow into a broader finance role
- Nice to Have
- CPG, food and beverage, or wholesale industry experience
- Familiarity with retailer deductions (Loblaw, Sobeys, Metro, Costco, Walmart, Whole Foods)
- Exposure to US AR and multi-currency (USD/CAD) transactions
- What You’ll Get
- Direct mentorship from a CFO and Controller — a rare chance to learn corporate finance at close range
- A clear path to grow into a more senior analyst or accounting role as the company scales
- Meaningful, visible work at a growing Canadian food brand with national and US distribution
- Full-time, in-office role with benefits
Benefits
- Dental care
- Vision care
- Life insurance
- Disability insurance
- Paid time off
- Store discount
