BDO Canada

Putting people first, every day

BDO is a firm built on a foundation of positive relationships with our people and our clients. Each day, our professionals provide exceptional service, helping clients with advice and insight they can trust. In turn, we offer an award-winning environment that fosters a people-first culture with a high priority on your personal and professional growth.

Your Opportunity

Are you energized by the idea of helping businesses navigate complex challenges? Do you thrive in fast-paced environments where no two days look the same? Are you looking for a role that blends strategic thinking, hands-on problem solving, and high-impact client work—all within a supportive and collaborative team?

If so, our Business Restructuring & Turnaround Services team in Vancouver wants to meet you.

We’re looking for a Senior Financial Analyst to join our Corporate Restructuring group. This is a unique and exciting opportunity for someone who wants to build a meaningful career in financial advisory—where you’ll be on the front lines of helping companies and creditors manage through disruption and change.

Our team works with creditors in recovering their debts through receiverships and bankruptcies, acting as court-appointed officers to preserve and maximize value. We also assist distressed businesses to stabilize operations, develop turnaround plans, and lead financial restructurings—both formal and informal. Some days, that might mean building a cash flow model or preparing a strategic recovery plan. Other days, you're managing the sale of a business, preparing Court reports, or even filing a tax return—because in our world, anything can land on your desk, and it probably will.

This is a hands-on, dynamic role suited for someone who thrives under pressure, communicates clearly, and genuinely enjoys problem solving. It’s challenging—but also incredibly rewarding. You’ll be part of a high-performing team that celebrates contributions and fosters professional growth.

What You'll Be Doing:

• Analyzing financial data, accounting records, and financial models
• Assessing business plans, forecasts, and financial positions of distressed companies
• Preparing integrated cash flow models and scenario analyses
• Supporting the execution of formal restructuring mandates including Receiverships, Proposals, and Bankruptcies
• Preparing formal reports to stakeholders, creditors, and the Courts
• Assisting in advising companies, lenders, creditors, shareholders, and regulators
• Managing multiple engagements and timelines concurrently
• Managing sales processes for the disposition of distressed assets and businesses
• Participating in practice development and business networking initiatives

How do we define success for your role?

• You demonstrate BDO's core values through all aspects of your work: Integrity, Respect and Collaboration
• You understand your client’s industry, challenges, and opportunities; clients describe you as positive, professional, and delivering high quality work
• You identify, recommend, and are focused on effective service delivery to your clients
• You share in an inclusive and engaging work environment that develops, retains & attracts talent
• You actively participate in the adoption of digital tools and strategies to drive an innovative workplace
• You grow your expertise through learning and professional development.

Your Experience and Education:

• 2–3 years of experience in a professional accounting services firm (Audit experience is an asset)
• CPA designation obtained or in progress
• Experience in corporate restructuring, insolvency, or turnaround is a strong asset—but not required. We’ll train the right candidate.
• Strong analytical and problem-solving skills, with a structured approach to tackling complex issues
• Excellent written and verbal communication skills
• Proficiency in MS Office, particularly Excel
• Detail-oriented, with strong organizational skills and the ability to juggle multiple priorities
• Flexibility to work outside standard business hours and travel to client locations as needed
• Access to reliable transportation for occasional travel throughout BC

Why Join Us?

• You’ll do impactful, high-visibility work that makes a real difference for clients and stakeholders
• You’ll be part of a team that values initiative, supports professional development, and celebrates contributions
• You’ll build a deep and varied skillset while developing a strong network in the insolvency, legal, lending, and business communities
• You’ll learn fast, think on your feet, and—yes—have fun while doing it
