  • 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
