Original job description

Senior Accountant | $75,000–$95,000 | Ottawa (Hybrid)

The problem with some Senior Accountant roles is that you can spend years preparing financial statements without ever getting much closer to the people making the decisions behind them.

This opportunity is rather different.

You'll join a well-established independent CPA firm in Ottawa's Westboro area, working with privately held businesses, incorporated professionals, entrepreneurs and individuals.

The firm has been serving Ottawa clients for over 20 years and has built its reputation on providing personal, practical advice rather than simply preparing financial statements and tax returns.

You'll work closely with experienced Partners, take ownership of client engagements and gain exposure to corporate tax planning, estate and succession planning, and broader business advisory work.

Why consider it:

$75,000–$95,000 salary
Hybrid working in Ottawa
Established independent CPA firm with a strong local reputation
Varied privately held business and individual clients
Exposure to corporate tax planning, estate planning and advisory
Direct client responsibility and close involvement with Partners
Opportunity for long-term career development and progression

What you'll be doing:

Prepare compilation engagements, financial statements and year-end working papers
Prepare T2 corporate, T1 personal and T3 trust tax returns
Assist with corporate tax planning, reorganizations and estate-related matters
Manage client files, resolve accounting issues and respond to CRA correspondence
Work directly with clients and Partners, while supporting and reviewing junior staff where appropriate

What they're looking for:

3+ years of Canadian public accounting experience within a CPA firm is essential
Strong compilation, financial statement preparation and Canadian tax experience
CPA designation or actively working towards completion
Good understanding of ASPE and Canadian income tax requirements
Comfortable managing client files and communicating directly with clients
Experience with CaseWare and Canadian tax software would be beneficial

If you'd like to know more about the position, just hit the apply button and I'll be in touch.

If you're only browsing the job boards and haven't updated your resume yet, that's not a problem. You can call me on 647 503 2624 or email jamieegglenton@distinctrecruitment.com.

Alternatively, search for Jamie Egglenton at Distinct North America on LinkedIn and send me a message.

If you're unsure about applying because you don't meet every requirement, I'd still encourage you to get in touch. We support the CPA firms we partner with in building diverse, inclusive and equitable workplaces, and even if this role isn't the right fit, there may be another one that is.
