About the Team

Davis Martindale is a regional mid-sized accounting firm that is fiercely independent, and proudly Canadian. We have been in business for over 55 years with 110 team members and we are still growing!

The Tax Services Team is a team of talented professionals who enjoy providing creative solutions to our clients. We are made up of Tax Masterminds, Client Whisperers, Strategic Gurus, Team Cheerleaders, and Problem-Solver Extraordinaires. We focus on helping our employees grow by presenting opportunities and projects that are challenging and rewarding.

We are looking for someone who 'gets' our Core Values, which capture our personality by influencing, reinforcing and shaping our firm's culture. Our Core Values are at the heart of the work that we do, the decisions that we make, and how we treat each other.

Our Core Values: MAKE RELATIONSHIPS MATTER -

You cultivate positive relationships with team members and clients. You nurture those relationships through listening, understanding, showing empathy, finding commonalities and accepting differences.

FIND A WAY -

You don't back down from a challenge (especially during Tax Season!) and you are willing to show initiative. Sometimes it takes a pickaxe and sometimes it takes dynamite, but somehow you will figure out how to move the mountain.

DO THE RIGHT THING, ALWAYS -

You have good judgment and use it to make smart decisions. You are fair, honest and consistent in all that you do. You don't need a manual or someone over your shoulder to tell you how to do the right thing.

THINK TEAM FIRST -

You love being part of a team and rallying your teammates. A big part of our teamwork is graciously giving and receiving coaching and feedback. You'll play a big part in developing, training, mentoring and supporting all members of the Canadian Tax Team.
