Full job description

About us

We’re a boutique cross-border tax firm in Kitsilano, near Granville Island, specializing in US and Canadian personal tax for US citizens resident in Canada. If you’re doing excellent work at a larger firm but want more control of your time, more ownership of your files, and direct client relationships — without the bureaucracy — this role is built for you.

The role

Working alongside Kevin Beesley, Tomoko Wakeford, and Shivani Sachdev, you’ll review the US and Canadian cross-border personal tax work prepared by our team, prepare the most complicated files we have, own the technical quality of what goes out the door, resolve the hard cross-border questions, and mentor our junior staff. You’ll manage your own portfolio of client relationships and help shape how the practice runs.

What you’ll do

  • Review and prepare Canadian (T1), US (Form 1040), FBARs and state personal returns and supporting working papers for technical accuracy and completeness, and sign off on quality
  • Act as the technical go-to on cross-border individual issues — residency and treaty positions, foreign information reporting (Forms 3520/3520-A, 8938, 5471, FBAR), PFICs, cross-border pensions and registered accounts, and foreign tax credits
  • Manage client relationships and lead correspondence with the CRA and IRS, including Notices of Assessment, review letters, and voluntary disclosures
  • Mentor and train junior staff; write clear review notes and help build internal standards and processes
  • Own filing deadlines and extensions across your portfolio

Required qualifications & skills

  • You must have 5 or more years of experience working for a cross-border tax firm
  • You need to know more about US and Canadian taxes than our less senior staff
  • CPA (Canada or US) and/or EA designation
  • Able to independently review both US (Form 1040 + state) and Canadian (T1) personal returns
  • Excellent written and verbal communication — able to explain and defend positions to clients and tax authorities
  • Sound judgment — able to use AI tools critically, applying their strengths without being led into errors

If this role is a fit, you should be comfortable discussing what PFICs are and how GILTI works.

Nice to have

  • Experience reviewing corporate, partnership, trust, estate, information returns and elections
  • Experience mentoring or managing staff
  • Working knowledge of TaxPrep and CCH ProSystem fx
  • Bookkeeping familiarity for individuals and/or corporations

Why you’ll want this role

  • Control of your time — flexible, negotiable hours outside the busy season; you shape your own schedule
  • Real ownership of your files and client relationships, without big firm layers of bureaucracy
  • Expect to work 48–55 hours/week from March 1 – June 15.
  • Competitive salary, plus a firm profit-based bonus and overtime pay for overtime work - $110,000 - $140,000 depending on experience and how much free time you would like.
  • Extended health and dental benefits
  • Hybrid model (minimum 1 day/week in office once established)
  • On-site parking

To apply

Email your resume and a brief cover letter to admin@kevinbeesleytax.com. You must be eligible to work in Canada. We welcome applicants of all backgrounds and thank all candidates for their interest; only those selected for an interview will be contacted.
