Compensation: $72,000–$85,000 per year, based on experience and ability

Pro Business Tax & Accounting Inc. is a growing CPA firm in Vaughan serving small businesses, entrepreneurs, professionals and privately owned corporations.

We are looking for an experienced Accounting Manager who can independently manage corporate accounting and tax files while also communicating confidently with clients.

This is an excellent opportunity for someone with public-practice experience who enjoys both the technical side of accounting and working directly with business owners.

Responsibilities

- Prepare and review year-end working paper files and financial statements
- Prepare corporate income tax returns (T2)
- Review bookkeeping, bank reconciliations and adjusting journal entries
- Prepare and review GST/HST filings and other corporate compliance work
- Work on bookkeeping cleanup and catch-up engagements
- Identify accounting and tax issues and bring complex matters to the Managing Partner
- Communicate directly with clients to obtain information and resolve questions
- Explain year-end results and routine accounting/tax matters clearly to business owners
- Help manage client deadlines and workflow
- Review work prepared by bookkeeping and accounting staff where appropriate
- Assist with practical tax planning for owner-managed corporations
- Help improve internal accounting processes and workflows

What We Are Looking For

- Minimum 3–5 years of recent Canadian public accounting experience
- Strong experience with owner-managed corporations and small businesses
- Strong knowledge of T2 corporate tax returns and year-end financial statements
- Experience preparing compilation engagements




- Strong bookkeeping and accounting fundamentals
- Ability to independently take a file from working papers through completion
- Strong verbal and written communication skills
- Comfortable dealing directly with clients
- Organized, efficient and able to manage multiple deadlines
- Comfortable working in a technology-driven, paperless environment
- Canadian CPA designation or CPA program experience is an asset, but not mandatory

Experience with CCH iFirm (TaxPrep), Quickbooks Online, Xero, Countable or similar accounting and tax software is a major asset.

About the Role

We are specifically looking for someone who can take ownership of their work.

The ideal candidate does not simply prepare a file and pass it along. They are able to review the numbers, identify issues, communicate with the client, resolve normal accounting and tax matters, and know when something should be escalated.

Solid communication skills are important. Our clients are business owners, and we place significant value on being able to explain accounting and tax matters in a practical and understandable way.

About Our Practice

Our practice focuses primarily on:

- Corporate accounting and tax
- Bookkeeping and accounting support
- Compilation engagements
- GST/HST compliance
- Cleanup and catch-up accounting
- Owner-manager tax planning and advisory

We do some personal tax work and our practice is not currently assurance-heavy.

We use modern cloud-based systems and are continually improving how we deliver accounting and tax services.

This position offers the opportunity to take on increasing responsibility as the firm continues to grow.
