CONTROLLER Location: Ottawa, ON | Hybrid Department: Finance Reports To: Krish Venkataraman | Chief Financial Officer https://www.linkedin.com/in/venkataramankrish/ Type: Permanent | Full-Time ABOUT SOLINK At Solink, our mission is to safeguard what matters most. We provide businesses with the tools to know sooner and act faster by transforming video security into real-time operational insights. Our cloud-based platform integrates seamlessly with your existing cameras and systems, turning them into intelligent sensors that detect and interpret key moments. This empowers teams to make data-driven decisions, enhance security, and improve operational efficiency. Trusted by over 30,000 locations across 32+ countries - including brands like McDonald’s and JYSK - Solink delivers clarity when it counts. Our solutions help businesses reduce shrink, optimize performance, and respond proactively to potential threats. We're growing rapidly, earning industry recognition, and scaling with purpose. We’ve been recognized by Deloitte’s Fast 50™ and Fast 500™, Business Intelligence Group, and as one of Ottawa’s Best Places to Work. And we’re just getting started! THE ROLE We are seeking a Controller to lead and scale Solink’s global accounting function through a period of rapid growth and increasing complexity. This is not a traditional Controller role. You will be responsible for building the accounting infrastructure required to support a high-growth company, with a clear trajectory toward significant revenue growth over the next 3 years. Reporting to the CFO, this role combines strategic leadership, systems transformation, and operational excellence. You will act as a builder and architect, designing scalable processes, upgrading systems, and structuring the accounting organization for the next stage of growth—not just maintaining what exists today. This role is also part of a long-term succession plan, offering the opportunity to grow into broader finance leadership over time. W
