Remote Chief Accounting Officer Jobs (NOW HIRING)

Reports to: Chief Executive Officer | Interfaces directly with the Audit Committee of the Board

Position Summary

Jericho Energy Ventures (TSXV: JEV | OTCQB: JROOF) is seeking a senior accounting executive to own and lead the Company’s accounting function end to end — the general ledger, consolidation, external financial reporting, audit, tax, and internal controls — for a TSX Venture–listed Canadian issuer with U.S. operating subsidiaries and joint venture interests.

This is a hands-on, senior-most accounting role. The successful candidate will be responsible for the integrity of the Company’s financial statements under IFRS, for maintaining U.S. subsidiary records and reporting under U.S. GAAP, and for building the accounting infrastructure required to support the Company’s transition into AI data center and powered-land infrastructure development.

CORE RESPONSIBILITIES

Leadership of the Accounting Function

– Own the month-end, quarter-end and year-end close calendar, the account reconciliation process, and the consolidation of a multi-entity, cross-border corporate structure.

– Hire, supervise and develop internal accounting staff, and manage outsourced bookkeeping, tax, valuation and transfer agent providers.

– Serve as the primary relationship manager for the external auditor — planning, PBC coordination, technical accounting memoranda, and management of audit timelines against statutory filing deadlines.

– Prepare and present financial reporting packages and technical accounting positions to the Audit Committee and the Board.

IFRS Financial Reporting

– Prepare annual and interim consolidated financial statements, notes and supporting working paper files in accordance with IFRS as issued by the IASB.

– Draft and control the MD&A, and prepare financial disclosure supporting information circulars, financing documents and exchange filings.

– Own the technical accounting positions that this business actually generates business combinations, consolidation and joint arrangements, financial instruments (including convertible debentures and warrant classification), share-based payments, leases, capital projects and borrowing cost capitalization, foreign currency translation, impairment, and deferred tax.

U.S. GAAP and Cross-Border Reporting

– Maintain U.S. subsidiary accounting records and reporting under U.S. GAAP.

– Identify, document and quantify IFRS–U.S. GAAP differences, and prepare conversion or reconciliation packages as required for financing, listing or partner reporting purposes.

– Support diligence and financial reporting workstreams associated with a potential U.S. listing, including SEC registration and PCAOB audit requirements.

Compliance, Controls and Transaction Support

– Maintain the Company’s continuous disclosure record in good standing, including SEDAR+ filings and certification obligations.

– Design, document and operate internal control over financial reporting and disclosure controls and procedures appropriate to the Company’s size.

– Manage corporate tax compliance across Canadian and U.S. federal and state jurisdictions, including protection of the Company’s tax attributes.

– Provide accounting and structuring input on financings, acquisitions, joint venture formation and reorganizations, and prepare JV-level reporting to partners.

– Own cash management, budgeting and forecasting, and the reporting cadence to the CEO and Board.

REQUIRED QUALIFICATIONS

Credentials and Experience

– CPA (Canada) or CPA (U.S.) in good standing.

– Ten or more years of progressive accounting and financial reporting experience, including at least three to five years as Corporate Controller, or Vice President of Corporate Controller, or Vice President of Finance and Accounting, or Chief Accounting Officer of a public reporting issuer.

– Prior public company experience is required. Public accounting firm background is an asset at any firm tier; a Big Four pedigree is not a requirement for this role.

IFRS

– Full-cycle IFRS preparation experience for a Canadian reporting issuer, including annual and interim financial statements, note disclosure, and audit-ready supporting files.

– Technical depth across: IFRS 3 business combinations; IFRS 10 and IFRS 11 consolidation, joint arrangements and equity-method investments; IFRS 9 financial instruments, including convertible debentures and warrant classification and derivative liability treatment; IFRS 2 share-based payments; IFRS 16 leases, including ground leases and power and interconnection arrangements; IAS 16 and IAS 23 capital projects, construction in progress and borrowing cost capitalization; IAS 21 translation of a USD-functional subsidiary group into a CAD presentation currency; IAS 36 impairment testing and CGU determination; and IAS 12 deferred tax, including cross-border attributes and loss carryforward preservation.

U.S. GAAP

– Working proficiency in U.S. GAAP, with practical experience preparing or converting financial information under both frameworks.

– Ability to maintain U.S. subsidiary reporting, identify and document framework differences, and prepare a conversion or reconciliation package.

– Familiarity with SEC reporting requirements and PCAOB audit standards, including the 10-K / 10-Q and 40-F / 20-F reporting regimes.

Canadian Public Company Compliance

– Working knowledge of NI 51-102 continuous disclosure, NI 52-107 acceptable accounting principles, NI 52-109 certification, MI 61-101 related party transactions, and TSX Venture Exchange policies governing financings, escrow and change of business transactions.

– Direct experience with SEDAR+ filings and public company reporting deadlines.

PREFERRED QUALIFICATIONS

– Experience in energy, power generation, and/or real estate development/digital infrastructure, including capital project accounting and capitalization judgments on large construction programs.

– Joint venture accounting experience where the issuer holds a non-wholly owned interest, including control versus joint control determinations and partner-level reporting.

– Involvement in equity and debt financings, reverse takeovers, reverse mergers, or NASDAQ / NYSE listing processes.

– Corporate tax exposure across Canadian and U.S. federal, state and multi-state regimes, including transfer pricing and withholding.

– ERP implementation or accounting systems modernization for a company outgrowing a single-line-of-business platform.

– Prior work at a company undergoing a strategic pivot or change of business, where the accounting function had to be rebuilt alongside the operating model.

Personal Attributes

– Comfortable operating with limited support in a small-cap environment — in the ledger one day, in front of the Audit Committee the next.

– Direct, well-reasoned technical judgment, with the rationale for material accounting positions documented before the auditor asks for it.

– Command of deadlines. Filing dates are not negotiable, and the successful candidate will not have missed one.

– Discretion and judgment appropriate to a role with full visibility into transactions in progress.

Compensation and Terms

Compensation will be structured as base salary plus participation in the Company’s equity incentive plan, commensurate with experience and title.

To Apply

Submit a résumé and a brief cover note. Please identify in your cover note the reporting frameworks you have personally prepared statements under and the size and structure of the accounting function you have led.
