Level up your accounting career with GGFL! Go beyond the numbers.

At GGFL, our work is our pride, people are our strength, we embrace change and grow with it, and we work collaboratively.

At GGFL, we’re not your average accounting firm. Yes, we take our work seriously (tax laws require it!), but we also believe in having fun, supporting one another, and growing together. We’re proud of what we do, energized by who we work with, and always up for embracing what’s next.

We’re Ottawa’s go-to tax planning and accounting firm for successful business owners. Entrepreneurs and local leaders trust us to help them navigate complex financial territory—from audits to tax planning—with confidence, clarity, and a little bit of personality.

And now, we’re looking for a Staff Accountant to join our incredible team. Ready to jump in?

KEY RESPONSIBILITIES

• Supporting the planning and execution of audit, review, and compilation engagements

• Assisting with the preparation of engagement files, financial statements, and professional client communications

• Getting involved with tax planning for corporate clients, bringing creative solutions

• Preparing corporate tax returns (you’ll be a pro in no time!)

WHY JOIN US?

• Real impact: Work directly with local entrepreneurs and make a meaningful difference in your community.

• Your career, your way: We support your growth journey with structured development, coaching, and career pathing.

• CPA support that’s second to none: Paid study time, financial support, and a best-in-class pass rate.

• Flexible time off: Generous PTO, bonus holiday week in December, and half-day Fridays in July and August!

• Paid Overtime: Yes, you read that right.

• Free onsite parking: Because who wants to pay for that?

What You Bring:

• 1+ years of public accounting experience (we’re looking for a self-starter with a solid foundation)

• An understanding of accounting standards and Canadian tax and if you're currently chasing that CPA designation, we’ll cheer you on every step of the way (coffee and highlighters included).

• Strong written and verbal communication skills

• A growth mindset — you welcome feedback like it’s a free upgrade.

• A genuine interest in helping clients succeed (and maybe a soft spot for a good Excel formula)
