  Who we are
  You know those big cities that still feel like small towns? Where everyone’s friendly and helps each other out? That’s like Grant Thornton. Except here we’re all professionals and there isn’t a mayor or a general store. What we’re trying to say is that we’re a large and growing professional services firm that still feels like a community. We employ over 3000 people across Canada, and we truly care about our colleagues, our clients and the communities where we work and live. That’s what’s most important to us. We’re building a thriving organization that’s purpose driven and still want to remember what your favourite milkshake flavour is.

  As a Senior Tax Manager in our Domestic Tax team, you'll own client relationships within a wide variety of industries. Working with some of Canada's top gurus in Tax, a career in tax at Grant Thornton means you'll be supported to further your professional career and create your unique career journey .

  Joining our robust team of over 400 tax professionals means you’ll collaborate with colleagues across service lines such as Assurance, Advisory, and Specialty Tax, which can broaden your perspective and help you solve client problems, delivering personalized solutions.

  As a Senior Tax Manager, you're a trusted advisor to clients, helping them with corporate and personal tax planning and compliance so they can benefit from tax savings. Here's some of what you'll get to do:
  • Establish deep trusting relationships with clients as you advise them on complex tax matters
  • Advise clients on reorganizations, rollovers, windups, amalgamations, provisions, succession and estate planning, as well as manage T1, T2 and T3 returns
  • Coach and mentor a team of colleagues on tax compliance, helping them walk in clients’ shoes by discussing tax planning options
  • Impact the financial operation of the practice by developing meaningful relationships with clients from a variety of industries
  • Act as a leader in the management of our growing tax practice, identifying and developing new opportunities for additional tax services
