Job Description

Join a firm that’s actually growing-and wants you to lead it.

This is not a typical public accounting environment. This is a collaborative, growth-focused organization that values leadership, client relationships, and long-term career development-not just pushing compliance work through the door.

• Collaborate with leadership on operational improvements and firm initiatives


• Support team development and long-term growth

Client Accounting & Advisory


• Manage and maintain strong client relationships


• Serve as a trusted advisor for accounting and operational questions


• Assist clients with financial reporting, budgeting, and accounting-related matters


• Deliver a high level of client service and responsiveness


• Provide insight and solutions beyond transactional accounting work

Financial Review & Compliance


• Review financial statements and accounting deliverables for accuracy


• Ensure compliance with accounting standards and regulatory requirements


• Identify and resolve accounting issues and discrepancies


• Maintain quality control across engagements and deliverables

Qualifications Preferred


• Bachelor’s degree in Accounting or related field


• CPA preferred


• 5+ years of related accounting experience


• Public accounting experience strongly preferred


• Experience with accounting software including QuickBooks and related platforms


• Strong analytical and problem-solving abilities


• Excellent communication and leadership skills


• Ability to manage multiple priorities and deadlines


• Experience mentoring or leading team members preferred

Benefits May Include


• Competitive compensation


• Health, dental, and vision insurance • 401(k)


• Paid time off and paid holidays


• Flexible schedules


• Summer Fridays


• Professional development opportunities

Career Growth


• Path toward senior leadership opportunities


• Ability to expand leadership responsibilities


• Opportunity to influence team development and operational strategy


• Continued professional growth within a growing organization
