About Us


At Davidson & Company, our people are our greatest strength. From our humble beginnings in 1984, our entrepreneurial spirit has grown our firm to nearly 200 professionals, making us one of the largest independent CPA firms in British Columbia and the leading public auditor in Canada.

Based in the heart of downtown Vancouver, we provide tax, audit, and advisory services to a diverse global client base. While we have a stronghold in the mining and exploration sector, we also work with clients in emerging industries such as cryptocurrency and cannabis. Unlike larger, more rigid accounting firms, Davidson offers the opportunity to explore multiple facets of the profession and shape your career in a way that’s meaningful to you.

From day one, you’ll work alongside experienced industry leaders who are invested in your growth—while making a real impact for our clients and our firm.

About the Role


Davidson is seeking a Senior Accountant to join our Public Company Audit Practice.

If you’re curious, adaptable, and eager to deepen your technical expertise while taking on increasing responsibility, this role offers a front-row seat to some of the most exciting work in the market.

What You’ll Be Doing


No two days look the same, but your core responsibilities will include:

  • Leading all phases of audit engagements—from planning and execution through to completion—across a diverse portfolio of clients
  • Preparing clear, accurate audit documentation in accordance with firm methodology and professional standards
  • Researching and resolving complex accounting and financial reporting issues, including the practical application of IFRS, US GAAP, and auditing standards
  • Acting as a key point of contact for clients, proactively identifying issues and delivering thoughtful, value-added recommendations
  • Mentoring and supporting junior team members while collaborating closely with cross-functional teams to deliver high-quality audit services

What You’ll Bring


You’re more than your credentials—you’re collaborative, detail-oriented, and ready to grow. Ideally, you bring:

  • A Bachelor’s degree in Accounting or a related field, plus a CPA designation (or CFE completion with active progress toward designation)
  • 2–3 years of public practice audit and accounting experience, with meaningful exposure to client engagements
  • A solid working knowledge of IFRS and auditing standards, with the ability to apply them in real-world scenarios
  • Strong communication and interpersonal skills, with the confidence to build trusted relationships with clients and colleagues
  • Excellent organizational skills and attention to detail, with comfort managing multiple priorities using tools such as CaseWare, MS Office, and emerging technologies

What’s in It for You?

At Davidson, we invest in our people. Our total rewards package is designed to help you thrive both personally and professionally.

Here's a snapshot of what you can expect:

  • Comprehensive health and wellness coverage from day one, including extended benefits, Telus Health EAP, and Maple Virtual Care.

  • 3 weeks of vacation to start, plus ad hoc paid time off throughout the year
  • $250 monthly commuting and connectivity allowance.
  • Opportunities to work with global clients and gain exposure to diverse industries and markets.
