Full job description

The Role

The Financial Controller is the operational engine of the AHANS finance team. Reporting to the Finance Director, you are the technical lead responsible for the "doing"—executing claims, monitoring sub-projects, and managing our diverse funding programs. You will thrive in a project accounting environment and act as a tech-forward leader, managing the complexities of deferred capital grants and day-to-day administrative precision.

Key Responsibilities

Funding Program Execution: Technical lead for executing financial claims and monitoring sub-projects across all AHANS funding programs. This includes managing the Financial Claims and Forecast of Project Expenditures (FPE), while providing critical data for Activity Reports.
Reaching Home (RH) Support: Oversee the financial reporting requirements for the RH program. While you will support the Finance Coordinator in managing RROL data, you hold the primary responsibility for ensuring claim accuracy and compliance.
Project Accounting & Modernization: Manage the full cycle of accounting within a project-based environment, with a heavy focus on deferred capital grants. You will lead the continued transition to a paperless, modern accounting environment.
HICC Audit & Monitor Lead: Prepare all working papers for the annual external audit and serve as the technical lead for Housing, Infrastructure and Communities Canada (HICC) financial monitors and reviews.
Operational Precision & Team Support: Manage the daily "engine" tasks—bi-weekly payroll (Payworks), bank reconciliations, AP/AR, and deposits. Direct the Finance Coordinator in serving the property management team, ensuring rent rolls and security deposit trust accounts are managed with precision.

Requirements

5-7+ years of experience in operational finance, preferably in a project-based or property management setting. A CPA is not required; we prioritize hands-on mastery of project accounting and grant execution.
Technical Agility: A commitment to maintaining a paperless, efficient finance department and proficiency in QuickBooks.
Strong hands-on accounting experience in a project-based or multi-entity environment
High attention to detail and ability to manage multiple priorities
Mobility: A valid driver’s license and the ability to travel across the province for monitoring visits and project reviews.

Assets

Experience in nonprofit, housing, or government-funded environments
Experience with government funding programs, grant reporting, or contribution agreements

Why Join AHANS

Meaningful work supporting housing solutions across Nova Scotia
Opportunity to modernize and shape finance operations
Collaborative, mission-driven environment
