Staff Accountant | $70,000 – $90,000 | Kitchener (Hybrid)

Most accountants don't start their careers wanting to become specialists. They want to learn. The challenge is finding a firm that actually gives them the opportunity. This role offers exactly that.

You’ll be joining a well‑established CPA firm where Staff Accountants are exposed to a broad range of work across accounting, review engagements, tax, compilations, and client advisory services. Rather than being limited to one narrow area, you’ll gain experience across the full client lifecycle and develop a deeper understanding of how businesses operate.

The client base consists primarily of owner‑managed businesses, entrepreneurs, professionals, and growing private companies across a variety of industries throughout the Kitchener‑Waterloo region.

Responsibilities
  • Work directly with clients, supporting senior team members on engagements and gradually taking on greater responsibility as experience develops.
  • Handle a broad spectrum of work across accounting, review engagements, tax, compilations, and client advisory services.
Benefits
  • $70,000 – $90,000 depending on experience
  • Hybrid working arrangement
  • Exposure to accounting, tax, review engagements, and advisory work
  • Diverse owner‑managed business client base
  • Direct interaction with clients and business owners
  • Strong mentorship from experienced managers and partners
  • Clear opportunities for long‑term growth and progression
  • Collaborative team environment where development is genuinely encouraged
Qualifications
  • 2–5 years of public accounting experience
  • Experience preparing financial statements and supporting review engagements
  • Exposure to corporate and personal tax work
  • Strong communication skills and a client‑focused approach
  • Someone who enjoys variety and wants to continue building their technical skillset

We support the CPA firms we partner with in building diverse, inclusive, and equitable workplaces.
