Audit Manager

Job Description

Audit Leadership

\n

Manufacturing & Distribution, Real Estate, Generalist For Profit

\n

\n

\n

You don’t have to move to a smaller firm to have more influence over your clients, your team and where your career goes next.

\n

\n

I’m working with an established CPA firm looking to add experienced Audit leadership in Chicago. Your background could be in Manufacturing & Distribution, Real Estate or a broader mix of for profit clients.

\n

\n

Partners are accessible, the structure is relatively flat and there is a mix of homegrown leaders alongside people who have joined from Big 4 and larger national firms.

\n

\n

The client base is predominantly middle market, with privately held businesses across a broad mix of industries. You could bring depth in a particular sector or experience across several.

\n

\n

You’ll lead complex Audit engagements, manage client relationships and help the people in your team develop. Beyond delivering the work, there’s room to contribute to the Chicago practice and work closely with the Partners on how it grows.

\n

\n

They are open on exact level depending on your experience. What matters is that you can bring leadership to the Audit team and want to keep progressing.

\n

\n

What they are looking for:

\n

\n
• Current public accounting experience
\n
• CPA
\n
• Strong Audit experience with Manufacturing & Distribution, Real Estate or general for profit clients
\n
• Experience leading engagements and developing staff
\n
• Strong client relationship skills
\n
• Someone who enjoys being involved with the wider team and wants visibility locally
\n

\n

\n

One thing I particularly like about the firm is how they operate across service lines.

\n

\n

The structure encourages offices and teams to collaborate. Audit, Tax, Accounting and Consulting colleagues can work together around your clients, giving you people to turn to when a conversation goes beyond the Audit itself.

\n

\n

The role is hybrid, with flexibility around how you structure your office days.

\n

If you want more involvement in the direction of your team and client relationships, while keeping the resources of a larger firm behind you, get in touch.

\n

\n

You don’t need to tick every box to start a conversation. If you have public accounting Audit experience and this sounds like the kind of move you’d consider, I’d be happy to talk it through.

\n

\n

Interested?

\n

Click apply and I’ll be in touch to tell you more.

\n

\n

Call me, Imogen Talbot Slack, on View phone number on ziprecruiter.com , or connect with me on LinkedIn at Imogen Talbot-Slack, Distinct North America .

If you’re looking for a move within public accounting locally but this role isn’t quite right, please still reach out. I’m recruiting for plenty of other roles and would love to hear what you’re looking for.
