Financial Analyst
Base Salary: $50,000 – $60,000 CAD + bonus + meaningful equity
Location: Remote-first (Canada/US preferred), optional in-person collaboration in Vancouver
The Opportunity
We’re hiring a high-potential Financial Analyst to join the FP&A function of a dual-listed (TSX/NASDAQ) fintech company operating across lending, payments, and capital allocation.
This is not a traditional entry-level finance role.
You will work directly on:
- financial models
- forecasting
- business performance
- capital allocation
…and partner closely with senior finance leadership, including the Director of Finance and CFO.
About Orion
Orion is a dual-listed fintech company (TSX/NASDAQ) focused on building financial infrastructure across wealth, payments, and capital allocation. The company is evolving toward a model where capital allocation is a core capability - integrating a long-term investing platform, global payments infrastructure, and an actively managed treasury strategy. This results in a business with non-trivial accounting and financial complexity, spanning financial instruments, multi-entity operations, and capital deployment decisions.
Orion is founder-led and operates with a focus on discipline, long-term value creation, and thoughtful balance sheet management. In this environment, finance and accounting are not support functions - they are central to how performance is measured, decisions are made, and the business is understood by public market investors.

- Build a deep understanding of how a multi-product fintech operates
- Gain exposure to lending, payments, and capital allocation within a public company
- Develop strong financial modeling and analytical skills early in your career
- Contribute to real outputs used by leadership
- Help shape how the business is understood internally and externally through financial insights
- Help build a modern FP&A function leveraging automation and AI
