Senior Accountant, Public Company Audit

About Us

At Davidson & Company our people are our strongest asset. From our humble beginnings in 1984, our entrepreneurial drive has grown our firm to nearly 200 strong and established us as one of the largest independent CPA firms in B.C. and the leading public auditor in Canada.

From our offices in the hub of downtown Vancouver, you'll be introduced to the tax, audit and advisory services we provide across our diversified global client base, from our stronghold in mining & exploration to the emerging cryptocurrency and cannabis industries. And unlike the other behemoth accounting firms, at Davidson we offer the opportunity to explore and experience multiple facets of the accounting profession. From day one, you'll have the opportunity to work alongside our team of top-notch industry leaders as you carve your own path and make an impact here at Davidson.

About the Role:

Davidson is seeking a Senior Accountant to join our Public Company Audit Practice. In this role, you'll gain hands-on exposure to a wide range of clients. You'll get a front-row seat to some of the most dynamic sectors in the market - It's perfect if you're curious, adaptable, and want to make an impact.

What You'll Be Doing:

No two days are the same—but here's a taste of what you'll be up to:

• Jump into the action by leading all phases of audit engagements—from planning and execution to final wrap-up—while working with a diverse portfolio of clients.
• Turn numbers into narratives as you document audit procedures and findings using our proven methodology.
• Be a mentor and a motivator—guide, train, and support junior team members as they grow their skills and confidence.
• Channel your inner analyst to research and resolve complex financial reporting issues with precision and insight.
• Be the client's go-to problem solver, proactively gathering information, resolving roadblocks, and recommending smarter business processes.
• Break down the complex—offer clear, concise advice on technical accounting topics like revenue recognition, share-based compensation, business combinations, and internal controls.
• Flex your IFRS & US GAAP muscles and apply your deep knowledge of auditing standards and techniques to deliver top-tier work.
• Collaborate with a crew of sharp minds, where debate, discussion, and innovation are part of the daily rhythm.
• Keep growing with continuous learning opportunities that support your career goals and professional development.
• Think globally—you'll work with high-profile clients not just in Canada, but around the world.

What You'll Bring to the Table:

You're more than just your credentials—you're curious, collaborative, and ready to make an impact. Here's what sets you up for success:

• A solid foundation: You've got a Bachelor's degree in Accounting (or a related field) and your CPA designation (or equivalent) - or you've passed the CFE and are closing in on that designation.
• Experience that counts: You bring 2–3 years of public practice audit & accounting experience and know your way around client files like a pro.
• IFRS fluency: You're confident navigating IFRS and auditing standards, and you know how to apply them in real-world scenarios.
• People skills: Whether it's clients or colleagues, you communicate clearly, listen actively, and build strong relationships.
• Project juggler: You're organized, analytical, and thrive when managing multiple priorities and deadlines.
• Detail detective: You've got a sharp eye for detail and a knack for spotting what others might miss.
• Tech-savvy: You're comfortable using Caseware, MS Office, and a willingness to leverage AI-driven tools and new technologies to work smarter
