Build Your Career Where It Matters.
For over 45 years, McGovern Hurley has been a leading mid-sized CPA firm, delivering tailored audit and assurance, tax advisory, reporting and compliance, and consulting services to publicly listed entities, private companies, and owner-managed businesses – locally, nationally, and globally.
Registered with Canadian Public Accountability Board (CPAB) and Canadian Investment Regulatory Organization (CIRO), we uphold the highest standards of quality, accountability, and technical excellence. We’re proud to rank among Canada’s top 10 firms serving publicly listed entities, completing more than 140 public company audits each year.
