Job title: Finance and Business Administrator – IFD corporation

Job description: IFD Corporation is a privately-owned technology company based in Vancouver, BC. The company has developed, patented, and commercialized the IFD™ safety device for use by electric power utilities in distribution transformers.

We are a talented and committed group focused on delivering high-quality results for our customers, and we have been having fun doing it. We have a strong, open culture where everyone on the team is willing to check their egos at the door and roll up their sleeves to get the job done.

At IFD your creativity and initiative will drive your opportunity. If you’re an individual with an accounting (or equivalent) degree and seeking new challenges, and a self-starter that uses data to make decisions you will thrive on the challenge and responsibility available at IFD Corporation.
