We’re Ottawa’s go-to tax planning and accounting firm for successful business owners. Entrepreneurs and local leaders trust us to help them navigate complex financial territory—from audits to tax planning with confidence, clarity, and a little bit of personality.
We are seeking a detail-oriented, client-focused Senior Staff Accountant who is ready to lead assurance and advisory work. You’re confident in your skills, curious by nature, and love supporting clients (and your teammates) with creative solutions and rock-solid advice.
And now, we want you to join our incredible team!

- Real impact. You’ll work directly with local entrepreneurs, making a meaningful difference in the community where you live.
- Your career, your way. We support your growth journey with structured development, coaching, and career pathing.
- CPA support that’s second to none. Paid study time, financial support, and a best-in-class pass rate.
- Flexible time off. Generous PTO, bonus holiday week in December, and half-day Fridays in July and August!
- Paid Overtime – yup, you read that right.
- Free onsite parking – because who wants to pay for that?
What You Bring To The Table
- 3+ years of progressive experience in a public accounting firm
- Strong knowledge of accounting standards and Canadian tax (CPA in progress? Even better!)
- Excellent written and verbal communication skills
- A feedback-friendly mindset and a willingness to grow
