We are currently seeking a Staff Product Manager to join our Accounting Team. This role can be performed remotely across Canada.

What your team does: 

You will be leading our Accounting business which is the next frontier for Clio. It's a key area of investment for the company and a cornerstone of our future growth.

This will be complemented by deep quantitative data to complete the customer picture.
