Job description

As a Tax Manager in our Domestic Tax team, you’ll work with a wide variety of clients and build your experience in new industries. Working with some of Canada’s top gurus in Tax, a career in tax at Doane Grant Thornton is an opportunity to create your unique career journey.

Joining our robust team of over 400 tax professionals means you’ll collaborate with colleagues across service lines such as Advisory and Specialty Tax, which will broaden your perspective and help you solve client problems, delivering personalized solutions.

Who we are

You know those big cities that still feel like small towns? Where everyone’s friendly and helps each other out? That’s like Doane Grant Thornton. Except here we’re all professionals and there isn’t a mayor or a general store. What we’re trying to say is that we’re a large and growing professional services firm that still feels like a community. We employ over 3000 people across Canada, and we truly care about our colleagues, our clients and the communities where we work and live. That’s what’s most important to us. We’re building a thriving organization that’s purpose driven and still want to remember what your favourite milkshake flavour is.

As a Tax Manager, you’ll help our clients with corporate tax planning so they can benefit from tax savings and incentives. Here’s some of what you’ll get to do:

• Coaching and mentoring a team of tax colleagues on compliance, helping them walk in clients' shoes by discussing tax planning options
• Establish deep trusting relationships with clients as you advise them on complex tax matters
• Review corporate compliance engagements, and analyze, review and complete corporate, personal and trust income tax returns
• Proactively resolve tax related issues with clients and other team members
• Act as a leader in the management of our growing tax practice, identifying and developing new opportunities for additional tax services

A typical day…

You’ll talk with the CFO from an agricultural client, and Jenny, the Tax Partner, will challenge your thinking as you work through uncovering client pain points and providing tax solutions. You’ll share your feedback with your coachees ensuring they have what they need to complete their files and feel supported. When you get a call from the corporate accountant at a national retail client, a quick Teams check-in with Dave from Indirect Tax, and you’re on to planning for tomorrow’s client meeting. But not before a quick stop at the fully stocked fridge for a flavoured sparkling water.

Think you’ve got what it takes to be a Tax Manager? Like the colour purple? Great. Here’s a few more boxes we’re also hoping you can tick:

• You’re enrolled in, or have completed, the CPA Canada In-Depth Tax Course, or have a Masters of Taxation degree
• You’ve developed and presented new ideas and conceptualized new approaches and tax solutions for clients as part of your commitment to providing exceptional client service
• You have solid experience in corporate and personal Canadian tax planning and/or compliance
• You’ve helped mentor and develop others

“My colleagues have fostered an inclusive and collaborative work culture that I enjoy coming to everyday. Not only that, the leaders I work with have helped me focus in on an area of tax that I’m most passionate about and supported me in reaching opportunities at a very early stage in my career.” -Roshni L., Tax Manager.

What's in it for me?

• Profit sharing
• Flex days
• RRSP contributions
• Firmwide holiday closure
• Wellness benefits
• Concierge-like benefits
• Work from anywhere in Canada in the summer for 4 weeks
• and more!

At Doane Grant Thornton, we believe compensation should reflect more than just market data—it should reflect you. We’re serious about compensation. We benchmark regularly across a wide spectrum of roles, industries, sectors, and levels to ensure our ranges are both competitive and current. But we don’t stop there. We also consider the unique strengths, experiences, and impact each individual brings to the table. Our salary ranges are reviewed annually, and where you land within the range depends on a mix of factors—your background, your skills, and how your contributions align with internal equity. To help start the conversation, the current salary range for this role is $80,000-$125,400 in Penticton. If the role is available in other locations, the range may differ to reflect local market factors.

We’re focused on making a difference in the lives of our clients, our colleagues and our communities. That’s our purpose. Or, as we like to say, living our purple.

Our special culture shines through when we have the opportunity to connect in person. That’s why we’re working in a model where teams are required to be together in the office 4 days per week.
