Job Title: Senior Accountant (Public Practice)
Location: 
Vancouver BC
Work Model: 
In-office
Compensation: 
$70K - $90K

About This Role

This role is ideal for a Senior Accountant who enjoys a mix of assurance, compilation, and tax work while supporting a diverse portfolio of private enterprise clients. You’ll take ownership of year‑end files, mentor junior staff, and deliver high‑quality client service in a collaborative public‑practice environment.

What You’ll Do

  • Prepare and review financial statements, working papers, and corporate tax returns.
  • Participate in planning and completing assurance engagements, identifying and resolving key issues.
  • Support junior team members through coaching, file review, and on‑the‑job guidance.
  • Communicate with clients professionally, providing clear explanations and value‑added insights.

What We’re Looking For

  • CPA designation (or successful CFE) with 2+ years of public practice experience.
  • Strong technical knowledge of ASPE, assurance standards, and tax fundamentals.
  • Proficiency with CaseWare, tax preparation software, and Excel.
  • A proactive, organized team player who manages deadlines well and communicates with confidence.

Why This Role Stands Out

  • Exposure to a wide variety of client files across assurance, compilation, and tax.
  • A supportive team environment with mentorship and opportunities for advancement.
  • A role that builds strong technical foundations and prepares you for future leadership.
  • A culture that values collaboration, initiative, and delivering exceptional client service.
