About the Firm

This isn’t your typical accounting firm. Think: a modern, high-growth firm that’s redefining what it means to work in public accounting. With an innovative culture, beautiful office space, and a strong emphasis on flexibility, team collaboration, and quality of life (yes—even during tax season), this firm is where CPAs go to thrive.

The Role: CPA Accountant – Relationship Manager & Tax Division Leader

We’re looking for a confident, client-savvy CPA who’s ready to own and grow the firm’s tax division while acting as a trusted advisor to clients and a key decision-maker within the firm. This is a senior-level opportunity for someone who thrives on autonomy, strategic input, and being a builder—not just a doer.

You'll be part of the executive leadership team, shaping direction and policy while also being the go-to tax expert for clients and internal team members.

What You'll Do

✔ Build, grow, and lead the firm’s tax division (Canadian a must and U.S. tax knowledge is a bonus)
✔ Manage accounting requirements for a wide range of corporate and personal clients
✔ Provide expert guidance on corporate structure, tax planning, and cross-border considerations
✔ Maintain and deepen long-term client relationships through top-tier advisory work
✔ Delegate bookkeeping and prep work to junior accountants—own strategy and review
✔ Take ownership of tax file reviews, reporting, and complex accounting questions
✔ Collaborate with other members of the executive team to support the firm’s vision and continued growth
✔ Contribute to key business decisions with your tax and financial expertise

Who You Are

✅ CPA designation (Quebec or equivalent)
✅ 3–5 years of experience in public accounting or a similar professional services setting
✅ Strong command of Canadian tax corporate and personal (U.S. tax a definite asset)
✅ Tech-savvy with accounting software (QuickBooks, CaseWare, Excel, etc.)
✅ Excellent communicator—comfortable with clients and internal team management
✅ Strong sense of ownership and leadership; you thrive in an evolving environment
✅ Fluent in English (French is a plus!)

Why You’ll Love It Here

🚀 Be Part of a Rapidly Growing Firm—And help shape its future
🤝 Executive-Level Role—Have a seat at the table, not just a desk
🧘‍♀️ Real Work-Life Balance—They mean it (no crazy hours during tax season)
📍 Great Hybrid Setup—Beautiful offices + flexibility
💰 Competitive Salary & Bonus + Paid Overtime—Earn what you're worth
🎓 Career Growth—Build your own tax division and team
💡 Refreshing Culture—Collaborative, innovative, and zero micromanagement


If you’re a CPA who wants more than the typical grind, and you're ready to take ownership, grow something meaningful, and work in a firm that values people as much as results—we want to hear from you.

Apply now and let's talk.
