If so, you may be a fit for our well-respected private equity client located in downtown Vancouver.

As a passionate CPA, the world is your oyster to take this role, run with it, and make it your own, as this is a newly created position at this established investment manager.

Reporting to senior leadership, our client is looking for a brilliant CPA to lead all accounting and tax functions for the firm’s funds and entities.
