Head of Financial Operations in Winnipeg

Winnipeg Full-Time On-site

ABOUT MAYFAIR Mayfair is a Private Family Office, and we launched in October 2026. We are new, we are doing things differently, and we have brought together experienced talent from the family office world to do it.

THE ROLE You will run financial operations for the families we serve, across their personal, holding, operating, trust and foundation entities. You will report to Chris Canavan, President, and work day to day with each family's Client Chief of Staff and with our Banking & Treasury function. To start, the role is hands day to day: you do the work yourself.

What you'll do

Run the monthly close through consolidation across each family's entities

Own budgets, cash forecasts, variance reporting and cash flow scenarios

Manage shared cost allocation and debt covenants

Handle household payroll and donor-advised fund and foundation administration

Collect tax documents through the year and track K-1s and slips

Prepare the year-end file and work with the firm of record through any review or audit

Put internal controls in place inside each family's finance function

Work with Banking & Treasury on cash, capital calls and payment schedules

Partner with each family's Client Chief of Staff

Contribute input on systems and processes

This is not a tax role. Tax & Structures owns tax planning and structuring.

What you bring

CPA (Canadian designation required; a US CPA is also valued)

10+ years of progressive finance experience across multiple entities

Controller-level or above experience inside a single- or multi-family office serving ultra-high-net-worth families

US experience and comfort working across jurisdictions

Strong banking and treasury knowledge: cash management, payments and controls, lenders and FX

Experience building finance systems from scratch

The judgment to work directly with principals and their advisors

You live in Canada and are legally entitled to work in Canada, and you are able and willing to travel to the US

THE DETAILS Base salary range: $190,000 to $235,000 CAD per year. Where you land in the range reflects your experience.

Based anywhere in Canada, remote-friendly, and available during core business hours. 37.5 hours a week, with flexible scheduling for client time zones. Periodic travel in Canada and the US, with expenses covered.

HOW WE HIRE Five values guide how we work:

Do What Is Right.

Be In The Arena.

Earn The Right.

All In. One Team.

Fear Nothing. Solve Everything.

They are the first filter for anyone who joins us, ahead of the interview and ahead of skills.

Because this role handles client funds, the process includes a background check, including a credit check, with your written consent.

Mayfair welcomes applications from all qualified candidates. Accommodations are available on request at any stage of our hiring process.
