Director of Finance Jobs in Ontario

A Director of Finance plays a crucial role in the finance industry by overseeing all financial activities, planning for long-term financial goals, and generating financial reports. They assess and manage financial risks, supervise cash management activities, develop financial strategies, and ensure adherence to budgets. Their responsibilities also extend to the development and implementation of financial policies and procedures, ensuring compliance with the state and federal regulations. They oversee and support the finance team, monitor financial details to ensure legality and make investment plans.

Important skills for a Director of Finance include strong leadership, excellent communication, analytical skills, and a deep understanding of financial software and databases.

In terms of qualifications, they should have a degree in finance, economics, or a related field, although an MBA or a certification like a Certified Public Accountant (CPA) or Chartered Financial Analyst (CFA) is often preferred. Prior to becoming a Director of Finance, an individual may have roles such as Finance Manager, Senior Financial Analyst, or Chief Financial Officer.
