**Manager, Assurance & Advisory Education Programs (CPA)**

We are seeking a CPA with a strong background in Assurance and Auditing who is passionate about developing the next generation of accounting professionals. This is an ideal role for an accountant looking to transition into professional development, focused on equipping our people with technical expertise and practical skills. Please note, this is not a human resources position; it is a unique opportunity for a CPA with hands-on experience to step into a learning role that directly impacts our Assurance, Advisory, and Taxation teams.

**Position Overview**

**Key Responsibilities**
- ** Technical Curriculum Development**: Lead the development and enhancement of technical and competency-based learning programs tailored to Assurance, Auditing, and some Taxation. Craft curricula that focus on building both foundational skills and advanced knowledge, fostering career-long growth in our accountants.
- ** Training Facilitation**: Co-facilitate onboarding and new-start training sessions to provide new CPA students and junior staff with a solid foundation in the firm’s culture, processes, and expectations. Integrate a variety of teaching methods to accommodate different learning styles and technical levels.
- ** Ongoing Support & Coaching**: Serve as a go-to resource for new hires post-onboarding, offering technical guidance and coaching to ensure they adapt effectively and perform at their best. This role involves a high degree of mentoring and hands-on support to foster early career success.
- ** Cross-Departmental Collaboration**: Work closely with the Learning & Development Partner, Quality Assurance Director, and Assurance and Advisory leaders to ensure that all learning programs meet firm standards and drive business outcomes. Facilitate regular cross-functional meetings to align on learning initiatives and quality expectations.
- ** Program Evaluation & Feedback**: Implement feedback mechanisms to continually assess the effectiveness of training programs and make data-driven improvements. Collect feedback from participants and stakeholders to refine learning offerings and enhance engagement.
- ** New Manager Training**: Develop a structured onboarding and training program specifically for newly promoted or hired managers, focusing on technical leadership skills, compliance with firm policies, and quality control procedures.
- ** Stakeholder Engagement**: Collaborate with Practice Leaders and Subject Matter Experts to understand current technical demands and future learning opportunities. Lead the design of an Advisory curriculum that balances technical expertise with critical professional skills.
- Holds a **CPA designation** and has substantial experience in **Assurance, Advisory, and Taxation**.
- Is energized by working with CPA students and early-career accountants, sharing knowledge, and providing mentorship throughout their career journey.
- Has previous experience in developing learning materials tailored to adult learners, including both in-person and virtual training formats.
- Understands the challenges accountants face on their path to designation and is committed to supporting them with technical training and practical guidance.
- Has excellent communication skills, with a focus on clear, supportive, and impactful training and mentorship.
- Is well-versed in performance coaching and understands how to foster resilience and adaptability, especially for those new to the profession.
