Our Culture

At Manning Elliott, our greatest strength is our people. We pride ourselves on the way that our team members approach clients and the work they do for them—with honesty, integrity, and respect.

Our goal is to provide clients with outstanding service and professional work of the highest calibre. We recognize team members who provide exceptional service and reward excellence in all aspects of our organization.

Manning Elliott values diversity. Our team members have varied personal and professional backgrounds with the capability to communicate with clients in an array of different languages. Our diverse corporate culture allows us to extend our global reach in order to provide our international clients with knowledgeable service and expert advice on complex engagements.

Work Life Balance

We believe that work-life balance is vital to a happy and productive team. Our flexible work arrangements include time earned flex day entitlements, a choice of a workday schedule created around core working hours, as well as many other perks that provide you with the opportunity to live a balanced and healthy lifestyle. In addition, our student policies allow generous study time and course support.

Professional Growth

Manning Elliott offers challenging work and career development opportunities for its professionals and students. Partners and senior managers work hard to maintain open communication and to mentor team members by sharing their expertise and creating an environment conducive to professional and personal advancement.

Professional growth at Manning Elliott is supported by our team development programs, which provide opportunities to improve leadership skills and offer informative webinar sessions to aid in overall professional development.

Culture and Community

Manning Elliott is proud of its dynamic and diverse work culture – despite our rapid growth in recent years; there exists a sense of “family” within our firm. Team members at all levels are friendly and approachable with a true team orientation throughout.

In keeping with our “family” like work culture, we’ve developed a social committee that actively organizes exciting and motivating events throughout the year. Also, over and above these major events, many impromptu activities come together in a fluid, spontaneous manner for anyone who is interested. Some activities include team lunches, hockey game nights, ski weekends, reality show pools and hiking trips.

Philanthropy and giving back to the community plays a large role in the culture at Manning Elliott and this is reflected in our substantial Not-For-Profit practice area. Team members, including new students, are encouraged to participate in volunteer work, both individually and through employer-supported programs. There are a variety of meaningful ways that many team members “give back”:

  • Volunteering

  • Financially supporting charities

  • Activities to advance the accounting profession

  • Community involvement

  • Mentoring students
