Accounting & Tax Manager | $110,000–$135,000 | St. Marys, ON (Hybrid) The interesting thing about becoming a Manager is that the best part of the job usually isn’t managing, it’s being trusted. Trusted by clients to answer the question before they make the decision. Trusted by junior staff when a file gets complicated. And trusted by the Partners to look after relationships they’ve spent years building. That’s much closer to what this opportunity is about. You’ll join an established independent CPA firm in St. Marys, taking ownership of a portfolio of owner-managed businesses and individuals across accounting, tax, planning and business advisory. It’s deliberately broad. One client might need help with a corporate tax issue, another with financing, another with succession or retirement planning, and another simply needs somebody who understands their business well enough to spot the problem before they do.
