EY Canada has appointed François Tellier as managing partner for Eastern Canada and office managing partner for Montreal, effective July 1, 2024.
Tellier succeeds Anne-Marie Hubert, who is retiring after spending more than 35 years with the Big Four accounting and consulting firm. Hubert has served as Eastern Canada leader since 2015.
“Anne-Marie has acted as a tremendous driving force, bringing together diverse stakeholders to expedite solutions that confront Canada's most pressing challenges, enhancing our nation's prominence and impact in the international arena,”
Tellier said.
“I’m honoured to follow in her footsteps, continuing to foster growth — not just for our clients, but also for our talented team and community at large.”
Tellier has been at EY’s Montreal office for more than 30 years, holding leadership positions primarily in the strategy and transactions group. He served as leader of EY Canada’s growth markets practice, providing services to high-growth organizations in the private and public sectors, and as national director of the EY Entrepreneur of the Year award program.
Tellier also previously was managing partner for transaction advisory services in Quebec.
He has a bachelor’s degree in management from HEC Montreal as well as chartered business valuator and chartered professional accountant certifications.
“I’m excited to be passing the baton to a highly respected, passionate leader,”
Hubert said.
“I have full confidence that François’ leadership will play a pivotal role in guiding our office and the broader region towards continued growth and success.”
Headquartered in Toronto, EY Canada has over 8,300 employees nationwide providing services in audit, tax, and consulting.
