About Convoy Finance

We like working with people who move fast, think for themselves, and care about doing great work. That’s pretty much how we run Convoy.

We’re a small finance and accounting firm working with technology, SaaS, fintech and Web3 companies across Canada and internationally. We work directly with founders and senior finance teams, helping them with accounting, tax, finance operations and CFO advisory.

Our team is small, which means there isn’t much bureaucracy. You get real ownership, direct access to senior people and the chance to actually make things happen.

Most of the team is based in Toronto, so you’ll be working closely with the people around you while also getting exposure to clients and colleagues in different markets.

The Opportunity

We're looking for a hands-on Senior Tax Accountant who thrives in complexity, values precision, and enjoys being a trusted partner to the business. This role is ideal for someone who wants more than a traditional compliance position and is excited by the opportunity to help build scalable tax processes while supporting a growing organization.

You'll work across tax compliance, reporting, planning, and special projects, partnering closely with Finance, Accounting, and external advisors to ensure the company remains compliant, efficient, and prepared for growth.

This is a role for someone who enjoys solving problems, digging into the details, and finding ways to make tax work better for the business.
