The Role

Treewalk is an innovative and entrepreneurial mid-size accounting firm headquartered out of Vancouver with an expanding office presence across the country.

We are looking for a self-motivated individual that loves challenging work, is obsessively organized, and has a commitment to continuous improvement.

Who We Are

Treewalk is a firm with an anti-firm culture – think tech-startup, but accounting. We are on a journey to become the go-to training place for accountants of all levels who want to work in industry.

We are an accounting and advisory practice based out of downtown Vancouver with an expanding presence across the country. We specialize in financial reporting and accounting needs for private and public companies. Our clients are from all industry sectors, and because we are industry-agnostic, we never shy away from new and emergent industries – having worked with companies in e-commerce, retail, manufacturing, cannabis, mining, and biotechnology, to name a few.

As one of the fastest growing accounting firms in Canada, we’ve got a lot on the go, and as far as we’re concerned, the only barrier to reaching our goals is finding exceptional talent to keep building out our team.
