Due to continued growth and an upcoming retirement within the team, the firm is seeking an experienced Canadian Tax Manager to join on a part-time basis.

This is a hands-on review role for an experienced Canadian tax professional who can immediately contribute by reviewing tax returns and financial statements, providing technical guidance to staff, and helping manage client work.

Opportunity to contribute to the continued growth of the Canadian tax practice

This position is ideal for an experienced Canadian tax professional who enjoys technical review work, mentoring staff, and working directly with a firm's senior leadership, but is looking for a part-time schedule rather than a full-time position.

CPA designation would be an asset. Candidates should have strong public accounting experience with a particular focus on reviewing Canadian personal and corporate tax returns.

Why is This a Great Opportunity:

This is an opportunity to join an established and supportive accounting firm in a senior, hands-on capacity while maintaining the flexibility of a part-time schedule. The successful candidate will have meaningful responsibility for tax review and technical oversight without being focused primarily on high-volume preparation work.
