Job description

One of Canada’s Most Trusted Investment Brands.

At Picton Mahoney Asset Management (PICTON Investments), being alternative isn’t just what we do, it’s who we are.

Founded by industry pioneer David Picton, we’ve spent 20 years challenging conventional wisdom and redefining the investing landscape. As one of Canada’s most trusted investment brands, we are proudly independent, privately run, 100% employee-owned, and deeply committed to delivering results for our clients.

Thinking Alternatively is in Our DNA.

With a team of 250 bold thinkers - one-third dedicated solely to investment management - we are specialists, not generalists. Managing over $20.8 billion (October 31, 2026) for institutional and retail clients, we navigate markets with conviction, resilience, and a forward-thinking approach.

We’re more than investors; we’re innovators. We challenge traditional investment mindsets, constantly pushing the boundaries to achieve our mission: to bring greater certainty to investors.

Our success is built on four guiding principles:

• Redefine the way investors invest.
• Be human, always approachable.
• Succeed together, one investment at a time.

These aren’t just words. They define how we think, how we invest, and how we work.

Now, we’re entering our next chapter. We’re transforming our brand and reshaping the way the world invests. If you think alternatively, embrace an entrepreneurial spirit, and thrive in a dynamic, bureaucracy-free environment, join us and be part of what’s next.

Thriving in Our Entrepreneurial Culture

At PICTON Investments, you’ll thrive in our creative and dynamic workplace, where collaboration and support are at the core of everything we do. At our firm, you’ll have the opportunity to take on significant responsibilities, work in a flexible environment, and tackle challenging projects from the outset. Our culture is designed for ambitious professionals who want to make an immediate impact while continuing to push boundaries and achieve our greater mission. You’ll be empowered with a high level of responsibility, trust, and flexibility, providing an exciting and creative space for you to help reshape how the world views alternative investments. With competitive total rewards, performance-based bonuses, and a clear path for career growth, you’ll have everything you need to develop both now and over the longer term.

The Opportunity

PICTON Investments is presently seeking a skilled and motivated individual to join the Finance team as a Corporate Accountant. The successful candidate will work closely with the Director, Finance to manage the corporate financial accounting responsibilities and administration of the firm.

The base salary for this role is $70,000–$80,000, depending on experience, skills, education and team budget, plus a discretionary bonus. As an employee-owned firm, top performers can participate in our equity ownership program over time. Benefits include profit sharing, extensive health and dental coverage, a healthcare spending account, a minimum of 15 vacation days, parental leave top-up, learning and development reimbursement, fitness reimbursement, and charitable donation matching.

You’ll have the opportunity to learn and lead:

• Full-cycle corporate accounting, including processing journal entries, and account reconciliations.

• Communicate and enforce sound accounting policies and internal controls.
