Daphna Smuckler

I am focused on enhancing audit quality, advancing market growth, and accelerating the audit digital transformation. I am also highly committed to placing people at the centre of all strategies.

Prior to assuming this role, I led BDO's assurance and accounting (A&A) practice in Canada and was a member of BDO's Executive Leadership Team. I was responsible for providing leadership and direction to BDO's A&A practice driving the Canadian firm's strategic initiatives. I also served as chair of BDO Canada's Board. As an Audit Partner, I served private and public clients working with company’s ranging from early-stage development to multi-national corporations.

I am a passionate supporter of creating a diverse and inclusive work environment. To support the Canadian firm’s talent strategy, I spearheaded the launch of BDO Canada’s first diversity and inclusion program.
