Portfolio Controller (CPA)

A Controller job in heli-skiing. Mostly remote, anywhere in Canada.

Heli Adventures Inc. operates Mustang Powder Catskiing, Stellar Heliskiing and the Kaslo Hotel in BC, along with Silverton Mountain and Great Canadian Heli-Skiing, and runs an online marketplace (heli.life), which sells heli-skiing worldwide. We're long-term owners run by people who love this industry. We're hiring a CPA to own accounting across most of the portfolio, reporting to the CFO.

What you own

• Monthly and year-end closes for Silverton Mountain, Mustang Powder, Stellar Heliskiing and the Kaslo Hotel: 5 operating entities, CAD and USD, staggered year-ends, plus about a day a month on the parent company
• Coordinating annual audits and reviews and our external tax preparers (US and Canadian returns)
• Lender reporting and point of contact for our lenders, insurance renewals, the annual budget
• Payment authority, and keeping our financials accurate and on time
• A seat in the weekly leadership L10 meetings
• Monthly financial reporting and analysis

The rhythm. Busy coming into and out of the season. Summer is lighter unless we're doing an acquisition. The work is results-based, so in quiet stretches, where you work from is up to you.

What you get. Heli-skiing and cat-skiing at our operations on an availability basis, and free skiing at Silverton when you're there. Company-paid stays at the Kaslo Hotel, the Mustang lodge or the Silverton House on your few on-site days a month. Mentoring from a CFO with 25+ years in skiing, and a path into M&A, strategy and board work. Kit, logo wear, annual leadership training and onboarding at the CFO's Dude Ranch - Sundance Trail Ranch in Colorado.

The honest part. These were family-owned businesses and the books aren't corporate. You'll love structure and still turn on a dime: this business is seasonal, guest-facing and weather-dependent.

Required: CPA · Controller-level experience in Canada at a small or mid-sized business · 5+ years in senior accounting · a few days a month on-site · entitled to work in Canada

You ski or snowboard, and you love it. This is a mountain business run by people who live for powder days.

Strongly preferred: public accounting, then private industry · multi-entity close · audit coordination · US/Canada cross-border and K-1 experience

Pay. $120,000–$140,000 CAD base, set by experience.

Process. Screening → 45- 60 minute call with the CFO → technical case sent 72 hours ahead → profiling → a final day with our team and leadership. We don't ask about salary history. Target start: early 2027, sooner if you're available. We'll work around your notice period.
