Edmonton, Canada Grant Thornton Full time

**Who we are**
You know those big cities that still feel like small towns? Where everyone’s friendly and helps each other out? That’s like Grant Thornton. Except here we’re all professionals and there isn’t a mayor or a general store. What we’re trying to say is that we’re a large and growing professional services firm that still feels like a community. We employ over 3000 people across Canada, and we truly care about our colleagues, our clients and the communities where we work and live. That’s what’s most important to us. We’re building a thriving organization that’s purpose driven and still want to remember what your favourite milkshake flavour is.

**As an Assurance Manager [Audit] your responsibilities will include**:

- Collaborating with colleagues to deliver exceptional client service
- Leading the coaching and performance management/development for direct reports through goal-setting, providing guidance, regular and timely feedback, and learning opportunities for professional development
- Planning, leading and executing client engagements under varying reporting frameworks across different industries and sectors; ensuring client needs and expectations are clearly understood and communicated, and exceptional service is provided
- Managing the work assignment and performance of engagement team members and being accountable for the outcome
- Proactive problem-solving with engagement teams and clients
- Being a leader in the Firm by actively sharing leadership for Grant Thornton culture and contributing to business plan development and execution
- Identifying and supporting new business opportunities by understanding the Firm, its service lines, and client relationships
- Building of our reputation as the preferred business advisors in key sectors of our growing practice

**Be Grant Thornton**
If you’re a bit like us, you’re driven to connect with how others are feeling and thinking. Here we walk in others shoes before taking action. Just imagine being part of a team that puts “we before me”, where flexAbility is a mindset, and where you trust your colleagues to have your back. At Grant Thornton, you’ll work with inspiring leaders who support your development, both personally and professionally. This is a place where your insatiable curiosity enables you to think, see and hear from a variety of perspectives, a place where every day is different and having the courage to grow is part of who you are. And when all this comes together, well that’s when the magic happens

**Think you’ve got what it takes to be an Assurance Manager [Audit]? Like the colour purple? Great. Here's a few more boxes we’re also hoping you can tick**:

- CPA (CPA, CA; CPA, CMA or CPA, CGA) accreditation
- Completed post-secondary degree/diploma
- 2-4 years’ post-designation experience in public accounting or related industry
- Strong technical expertise in accounting and professional standards including ASPE, ANPO, PSAS and IFRS

- Agile in the face of change and proven problem-solver with solid analytical skills
- Strong interpersonal skills with the ability to earn the trust and confidence of clients and colleagues at all levels, influence decision-makers, and lead change
- Team player with the ability to rally resources and work with others to meet the needs and exceed the expectations of clients
- Ability to establish and develop meaningful business relationships with colleagues, clients, and in the marketplace, based on strong rapport, trust and respect
- Strong people management and inclusive leadership skills, especially in the areas of coaching and development of team members, project management, and multi-team management
