Senior Accountant | Burlington | $70,000 to $95,000
A lot of accountants say they want variety in their work.
Then they join a firm where they end up doing the same type of file all year.
This firm in Burlington is different.
The client base is nicely mixed. Owner managed businesses across different industries, which means the work changes enough to keep things interesting. Audits, tax work, compilations and financial statements all form part of the role.
You will get proper exposure to the full picture rather than sitting in one small corner of the practice.
It is also a smaller CPA firm, which brings a few benefits of its own. You work closer with the Partners, clients know who you are, and the work you do is visible.
That tends to open doors quicker.
As the firm continues to grow there is room ahead of you as well. Some people will see a path towards Manager and eventually Partner. Others will simply enjoy being a strong Senior with good clients and a supportive team.
Both paths are respected.
They will want someone who already understands life inside a CPA firm though. Ideally two or more years of public accounting experience, with familiarity across things like T1s, T2s and financial statements.
If your current firm feels like it might be a bit too small for your ambitions or a bit too big for your voice to be heard, this could be an interesting middle ground.
