About Us

We are a growing, dynamic CPA firm located in Toronto. We pride ourselves on delivering exceptional accounting, tax, and advisory services to a diverse portfolio of owner managed business clients. Our collaborative and supportive team environment empowers professionals to build a strong foundation for their accounting careers through mentorship, hands-on experience, and ongoing training.

We are currently looking for an enthusiastic, detail-oriented Junior Accountant / Bookkeeper to join our team. If you have recently completed your accounting studies and are eager to kick-start your career in public practice, we want to hear from you!

Key Responsibilities

  • Full-Cycle Bookkeeping: Assist with day-to-day bookkeeping tasks for a varied portfolio of corporate clients, including data entry, accounts payable, and accounts receivable.
  • Reconciliations: Perform monthly bank and credit card reconciliations under the guidance of senior staff.
  • Tax & Compliance Support: Assist with gathering information and preparing working papers for HST/GST returns and year-end financial statement preparation.
  • Payroll Processing: Process payroll and manage related source deductions (e.g., T4s, ROEs) for clients as required.
  • Client Record Organization: Maintain clean, organized, and up-to-date cloud-based accounting files and source documents.
  • Client Communication: Liaise professionally with clients to gather necessary source documents, answer inquiries, and resolve discrepancies in a timely manner.
  • Team Collaboration: Work closely with our senior accountants and CPAs, absorbing best practices and learning the ins and outs of public accounting.

Qualifications & Skills

  • Education: Recent graduate of a college diploma, advanced diploma, or certificate program in Accounting or Finance.
  • Experience: While previous bookkeeping or office experience is a plus, no prior public practice experience is required - we are fully committed to training the right candidate!
  • Technical Knowledge: A solid foundational understanding of accounting principles, debits/credits, and financial statements.
  • Software Literacy: Familiarity with modern cloud accounting software (such as QuickBooks Online) is an asset, along with strong proficiency in Microsoft Excel.
  • Soft Skills: Eagerness to learn, strong attention to detail, and good organizational skills with the ability to manage time effectively across multiple tasks.

What We Offer

  • Comprehensive Training & Mentorship: Dedicated guidance to help you transition from the classroom into a successful public practice career.
  • Competitive starting salary.
  • Comprehensive benefits package.
  • A collaborative, inclusive, and modern Toronto office environment.
  • Clear pathways for professional growth.
