BRIANNA EATON

Summary
Results-driven Audit Manager with a proven track record of leading complex audits across diverse industries, including transportation, hospitality, utilities, not-for-profit entities, and municipalities. Since joining in 2018 as a Staff Accountant, I have played a pivotal role in high-profile engagements, notably the J.D. Irving audit, where I helped design and implement an efficient audit framework for 30+ entities while mentoring a high-performing team across Atlantic Canada.
Recognized for strong client and team relationships, I specialize in problem-solving complex audit challenges and driving continuous improvements to enhance efficiency and client experience. My expertise extends to smooth onboarding processes, as demonstrated in my work with DP Murphy Group hotels, and international engagements, such as Fortis TCI, where our team secured the highest client satisfaction rating.
