Who We Are
SFIR Consulting is a boutique accounting and consulting firm redefining how accounting is done. We operate in a flexible hybrid model, with in-person collaboration and training based in the Greater Toronto & Hamilton Area (GTHA), where our team meets periodically for office days and collaborative sessions
We are not a traditional firm: our mission is to deliver white-glove service with integrity, collaboration, and innovation at the core. We’re looking for team members who want more than just “a job”: people who want to grow, take ownership, and make a meaningful impact for clients and colleagues.
The Role
We are hiring dynamic Staff Accountants / Bookkeepers to support our expanding client base. This is a hybrid, client-facing role where you will manage day-to-day accounting while building trusted relationships with business owners and decision-makers.
You may catch our eye with your technical expertise, but you will stand out if you bring professionalism, reliability, and a growth mindset. If you are motivated to do great work, embrace responsibility, and thrive in a supportive yet fast-paced environment, this role is for you.
We encourage all applicants to highlight what makes SFIR a good fit!
