About the role

Experience Avail — From Anywhere

At Avail CPA, we believe great work can happen anywhere. With over 90 years of experience and a growing team of 140+ professionals across Alberta and British Columbia, we help our clients and communities thrive through expert advice, genuine care, and innovative solutions.

We’re currently seeking a Remote Audit Supervisor to support our Lethbridge-based not-for-profit team. This role is ideal for a CPA (or someone in the final stages of completing their designation) with solid public practice audit experience and a passion for supporting organizations that make a real impact. You’ll help lead assurance engagements, mentor developing team members, and work closely with not-for-profit clients — all in a flexible, remote-first environment.

If you're looking to grow your leadership skills while doing meaningful work that strengthens communities, we’d love to hear from you.

What You’ll Do

As a key member of our remote team, you will:

Audit Supervision and Execution

  • Assist with the planning and coordination of assurance engagements for not-for-profit clients
  • Oversee audit fieldwork while guiding team members through accurate, timely documentation
  • Review work prepared by team members and offer constructive feedback to uphold professional standards
  • Monitor engagement timelines and ensure alignment with Canadian Auditing Standards (CAS)
  • Evaluate audit risks, flag potential concerns, and recommend opportunities for improvement

Documentation and Reporting

  • Prepare clear, accurate documentation including technical reports, correspondence, summaries, and presentations
  • Communicate results and recommendations in a way that builds understanding and trust

Client Relationship Development

  • Maintain strong communication with clients to understand their operations, challenges, and goals
  • Collaborate with clients to identify improvement opportunities and support their long-term success
  • Help not-for-profit organizations make the most of their resources — so they can make the most impact in their communities

Coaching and Mentorship

  • Guide junior team members through real-time coaching and contribute to their technical and professional development
  • Promote a collaborative, learning-focused environment within the remote team

Continuous Learning and Innovation

  • Stay current with Canadian accounting and auditing standards, particularly those relevant to not-for-profit and public sector entities
  • Contribute to the continuous improvement of audit processes and firm best practices

A Day in the Life

On a typical day, you might plan for an upcoming audit, conduct virtual audit fieldwork, review audit sections prepared by junior team members, connect with a client over Microsoft Teams to walk through audit requests, and wrap up by mentoring a junior team member preparing for their next milestone.

What We're Looking For

  • A CPA designation or in the final stages of completing your CPA designation
  • 3–5 years of audit experience in public practice, ideally with not-for-profit or public sector clients
  • Demonstrated ability to manage competing priorities in a remote work environment
  • Strong attention to detail with excellent organizational and time management skills
  • A dedicated home office with minimal distractions and the ability to store confidential information securely.
  • Proficient in CaseWare, Microsoft Office, and cloud-based audit platforms
  • Clear, professional communication skills — both written and verbal
  • Strong analytical and problem-solving skills that build trust and deliver value
  • Genuine passion for supporting mission-driven organizations and creating positive community impact

What We Offer

  • Competitive salary aligned with experience and responsibilities
  • Comprehensive benefits package (medical, dental, vision, and more)
  • Flexible, fully remote work environment that supports work-life balance
  • A collaborative team culture where connection and transparency matter — including virtual coffee chats, regular check-ins, and real-time collaboration
  • Professional development and learning opportunities tailored to your career goals
  • The chance to do purposeful work with organizations that create lasting community impact
  • A dedicated, quiet home office or workspace with reliable internet — suitable for confidential meetings and focused work

Join Us

  • If you’re looking for meaningful work, flexible freedom, and a team that truly supports you — apply now and let’s build something impactful together.
  • We thank all applicants for their interest. To support collaboration with our Lethbridge-based team, preference may be given to candidates located in the Mountain, Pacific, or Central time zones (MST, PST, or CST).
