Support Smarter Decisions in a High-Growth Environment
Join Acuity Insights as we enter a new chapter of growth and operational maturity.
As our Accounting Manager, you’ll lead core accounting operations while helping evolve the financial systems, processes, and insights that guide our business forward.
This fully remote role gives you the opportunity to work from anywhere in Canada while shaping how a mission-driven SaaS company manages its financial health.
Reporting to the Director of Finance, you’ll own the accounting cycle end-to-end, from closing the books to managing AR, improving tooling, and partnering with teams across the company to support accurate, timely, and actionable financial reporting.
It’s a hands-on, high-impact role suited to someone who enjoys navigating operational complexity, spotting opportunities to streamline processes, and bringing clarity to financial data.
You’ll play a visible role in supporting a company that’s scaling with intention and helping ensure we do so on solid financial footing.
The opportunity could be a strong fit if you’re looking for a thoughtful work environment, meaningful collaboration across departments, and the chance to build scalable systems that support long-term decision-making and sustainable growth.
With foundational systems in place, our Finance team is focused on the next stage: scaling effectively, speeding up operations, and delivering timely, decision-ready financial insights across the business.
As Accounting Manager, you’ll own our core accounting functions from end to end. You’ll lead the month-end close, manage AR and revenue workflows, improve reporting accuracy, and introduce automation that reduces manual work. You’ll collaborate closely with Sales, RevOps, and Engineering colleagues to improve data quality and reporting reliability.
This individual contributor role is both broad in scope and highly visible. You’ll operate at the center of how we understand and manage our financial performance, with the opportunity to shape scalable systems and processes that support a smarter, more responsive business.
Lead Core Accounting Activities
Improve Process & Data Integrity
Enable Better Business Decisions
Collaborate & Coach
Your impact will be visible in how confidently and quickly the business can operate.
Specifically, your work will drive:
Accounting Operations & Controls. You’ve worked in accounting roles with or within tech or SaaS companies, likely small to mid-sized ones, where you were hands-on with the day-to-day and contributed to shaping the systems around you. You’ve led accounting cycles end-to-end, closed the books, and kept a steady eye on revenue, cash flow, and controls. If the company was earning $15M or more in annual revenue, you were in the thick of it, helping make sure reporting stayed clean and timely. You’ve managed accounts payable and receivable, handled invoicing and collections, and worked closely with Sales or Customer Success to get AR right. You’ve been part of audits and know how to prepare and respond, not just react.
Systems & Tools. You’re comfortable in cloud-based accounting systems and may have helped implement or improve tools like Xero, Dext, or Stripe. You like figuring out how to automate repetitive tasks and reduce errors, and if you don’t have experience with AI in finance yet, you’re definitely interested in exploring it.
Strategic & Cross-Functional Impact. You’ve worked alongside RevOps, Sales, or CS and know how financial decisions ripple across teams. You enjoy translating financial data into something actionable for non-finance teammates and are comfortable navigating ambiguity or complexity to move things forward. You build relationships easily and influence through trust and clarity.
Credentials & Orientation. You may be working toward a CPA or MBA, or already have one, but you understand that credentials are just one piece of what makes a great finance partner. What matters is how you show up. You’ve built strong relationships with external partners like banks, auditors, and advisors, and you bring integrity, accountability, and collaboration to everything you do.

At Acuity Insights, we believe everyone has incredible potential, and our mission is to help uncover and nurture it.
Imagine a world powered by everyone’s full potential. We’re working to create that future by building tools and insights that support holistic success for students, educators, and institutions around the world.
Our journey began with a bold idea: to improve how we assess people, not just by academic metrics, but by who they are. In partnership with McMaster University, we developed Casper in 2004 to measure the durable, human skills that matter in health professions and beyond. That vision came to life with the founding of Altus Assessments in 2014.
Meanwhile, One45 started in 1998 at the University of British Columbia helping medical education programs digitize complex processes like curriculum management, scheduling, and assessment. Over time, it became a trusted partner to programs across North America and beyond.
In 2021, Altus Assessments acquired One45, and in 2022, we unified as Acuity Insights, a single, growing organization with a shared purpose and broader vision.
What started as two distinct products is now one integrated mission supported by our Analytics platform, which delivers actionable insights to drive continuous improvement across the learner journey.
Today, our solutions support students and institutions from admissions to graduation across North America, the U.K., Australia, and Saudi Arabia.
As we continue to grow, we’re committed to being more than a software provider. We’re trusted thought leaders and valued advisors in higher education, offering practical solutions, strategic insights, and guidance that help our partners make confident, informed decisions.
At Acuity Insights, you’ll be part of a team of 130+ professionals. While we primarily collaborate virtually, we foster strong social connections and opportunities for in-person co-working.
Our core values - caring, curious, and driven - define how we work. We listen actively, collaborate openly, and act with integrity. We embrace challenges with creativity, resilience, and a shared commitment to continuous improvement. Above all, we believe in purposeful work that makes a real difference.
We are deeply committed to inclusion and belonging. We respect and value diverse perspectives and recognize that different experiences drive innovation and success.
Our workplace policies are designed to promote equity, flexibility, and well-being.
We encourage applicants from all backgrounds, especially those from underrepresented groups, to apply.
Thanks for considering Acuity Insights as your next employer!
