• Contributing to financial statement preparation using CaseWare
• Supporting tax slip preparation (Canadian and U.S.)

• Software experience with QuickBooks, CaseWare and/or Profile would be an asset
• Experience with preparing corporate, personal, GST/HST and/or tax slips would be an asset

Why This Role Is Different
