About the role

We’re looking for a Senior Accountant to join our Public Company Audit team in downtown Vancouver.

In this role, you’ll be trusted to lead parts of our audits, work directly with clients, and help guide the team. We’re known for helping our people grow quickly—if you’re ready to take on more and move up faster, this is a great place to do it.

You’ll get to work with companies in all kinds of industries—mining, health sciences, tech, gaming, agriculture, manufacturing, and more. Every file is a little different, so you’ll always be learning.

How you’ll make a difference

• You’ll run audits and reviews for public companies, making sure everything is accurate, efficient, and meets all the rules.
• You’ll use your IFRS know-how to check financial statements and disclosures, helping clients understand tricky requirements.
• You’ll keep engagements running smoothly—organizing the work, guiding your team, and making sure deadlines are met.
• You’ll build great relationships with clients through clear communication and being reliable.

Who you are

You’ve recently passed your CFE (or earned your CPA) and you’re ready for that next challenge of more responsibility, bigger files, and new opportunities to grow.

2 years of public company audit experience and know your way around IFRS and Canadian Auditing Standards.

You’re confident in your skills, organized in your work, and ready to be part of a team that supports you.

Three weeks’ vacation to start – Plus, earn more time off through our flexible banked time policy.

A standard 35-hour work week – In busy times, any hours over 35 are paid at your regular hourly rate or can be banked for extra holidays—your choice.

Meal allowance – If you’re working late, dinner’s on us.

Free food and snacks – Because sometimes, the small perks make a big difference.

Professional development support – We sponsor your CPA Professional Development Passport so you can keep learning and building your skills.
