Help Shape the Financial Function of a Company Unlike Any Other
For the past 50 years, Protexplo has designed, manufactured, inspected and maintained explosive safety infrastructure across Canada. Our clients include mining companies, specialized contractors, government agencies, the Canadian Armed Forces, research centres, avalanche control organizations, and the world's largest explosives distributors.
One morning, we're discussing a military infrastructure project. That afternoon, we're supporting a mine in northern Saskatchewan. The next day, we're overnighting the key that will allow a contractor in Yukon to access their explosives storage facility.
It's this diversity that makes our work so rewarding.
Today, our team of approximately 30 employees is split between our two divisions in Quebec and Alberta. We are experiencing strong growth, strengthening our processes, implementing a new ERP system, and preparing for the next stage of our development.
We're looking for someone who shares our vision.

A Position That Will Grow With the Company
We're looking for someone who wants to become the company's financial reference.
