About this Opportunity:
**MUST HAVE TURN KEY LAW FIRM ACCOUNTING EXPERIENCE**

Our Firm Culture

We aim to be connected as a team and promote dignity respect and being valued. If you like to work alone repeating the same tasks without much context, don’t apply.

That information comes from interactions with others on our team who approach their day to day work with a focus on collegiality which we feel gives everyone working here a sense of purpose in helping others. We offer a dynamic, collaborative and professional environment, yet we also take time daily to connect with and support each other, and make an effort to celebrate personal and festive events together. Our culture and management style is focused on the promotion of a safe workplace, professional growth and collaboration, over ever increasing demands for productivity and efficiency found elsewhere. The Bookkeeping position has its own physical office.
