Meet Paul Grossi, Partner at SME.
Paul has always had a desire to be his own boss and was naturally cut out to be an entrepreneur.
In the early years of his professional accounting career, Paul worked in both public and private accounting. In 1980, he decided to start his own practice, focusing on small business owners who were looking for business advice, along with the traditional taxation and accounting practice services, to succeed in their businesses. Over the past 40 years, Paul has serviced and nurtured relationships with an impressive portfolio of clients, being the trusted advisor of multiple non-profit organizations as well as private family businesses and their subsequent generations.
Paul’s story with SME started in 2016, when his existing practice merged with the Firm. Since then, Paul has not only contributed to the professional development of many staff members, but also created unforgettable moments in the office, leading team building activities and planning engaging games.
Outside of the workplace, Paul is a sports fan. During the warmer months, you can find him on the golf course or catching a soccer, football or baseball game. In the winter, Paul follows his beloved Toronto Maple Leafs. Paul is a family man, father of three and grandfather of two. He credits his success to his wife Catharine, who has been walking this journey alongside him for over 50 years.
Paul has served as President and Board Member of various charitable organizations. Prior to being an accountant, Paul had multiple different trade jobs, including being an assistant plumber, handyman, and working at a sod farm.
