about us

A proud native of Brockville, and a resident of Ottawa for over 15 years, Adam Caithness carries with him a decade of invaluable experience in the realm of accounting. Obtaining his CGA, CPA in 2015, he has established himself as an authority in accounting, tax, and financial advising in the Ottawa region, including Kemptville, Prescott, and, naturally, his hometown of Brockville.

Educated with a Bachelor of Commerce from Nipissing University and a Business Administration diploma from Algonquin College, Adam’s dedication to his craft and professional development is evident.

Venturing beyond the traditional confines of firm work, Adam showcased his financial prowess as the CFO of two tech giants in Ottawa, SimFront and SimWave. In 2018, he championed a management buyout, acquiring ownership from original founders with a strategically arranged BDC loan. This ingenuity and leadership culminated in a 2021 sale to publicly-traded company, Calian, reaping a staggering 500 percent gain.

Thereafter, Adam continued to serve with Calian for two years, further growing the two companies revenues 50% year over year.

With accomplishments in securing substantial SR&ED claims, IRAP grant applications, OIDMTC credits, and CMF grant funding, Adam’s track record speaks to his capability to navigate and harness financial avenues for business growth.

On a personal note, alongside his passion for the nuances of finance, Adam cherishes his role as a family man, enjoying life with his spouse, child, and an upcoming addition to the family. Cars and technology often captivate his leisure moments, reflecting a continuous interest in innovation.

Today, through the Adam Caithness Professional Corporation, he brings to the communities of Ottawa, Kemptville, Brockville, and Prescott, a robust offering of accounting, tax, bookkeeping, and financial advice—services grounded in local understanding and global expertise.
