Audit Manager

Audit Manager (or experienced Senior)

Hybrid | Chicagoland

Being ready for more doesn’t always mean having to join a bigger firm.

Sometimes you want somewhere you’ll have more say. More time with clients. People who know what you’re good at and give you room to do more of it.

This mid - large Chicagoland firm is small enough that you won’t get lost, but big enough to shape the work around your strengths and where you want to go.

Their growth has been organic. No mergers, no acquisitions. There are people who’ve stayed for 15 to 20 years, and a leadership team thinking about who will take the firm forward.

For you, that means somewhere you can build relationships, get established and see a future beyond your next promotion.

“We don’t have billable hour quotas. We value our nonbillable responsibilities.”

That matters when part of your job is helping other people get better. Coaching a Senior, supporting someone through their first audit or spending time with a client all count here.

The Managing Principal is clear on that. Someone helped you get to where you are. As a Manager, you’ll have the support and space to do the same for others.

You’ll work closely with clients across industries including manufacturing, retail, distribution, real estate and technology. There’s plenty of complexity to keep you interested, alongside the opportunity to lead engagements and build relationships with the people behind the numbers.

If there’s an industry you enjoy or an area you want more exposure to, they have the variety and flexibility to help you explore it.

Already a Manager? There’s room to keep moving. An experienced Senior ready for more responsibility? They’re open to that conversation too.

Progression is based on what you’re ready to take on and how you develop. Partnership is part of the firm’s succession planning, so there’s a conversation to have about what that could look like for you.

And you’ll get to know the people around you beyond the work. Firm outings, team plans and the occasional impromptu happy hour. The hybrid setup gives you flexibility alongside time together to learn, ask questions and have a laugh.

You don’t need to have your next five years mapped out. But it helps to join somewhere that will take the time to work it out with you.

Think you only have 87% of the required experience? Perfect - apply anyway. The CPA firms we partner with want diverse, interesting people, not corporate clones stamped from the same tedious mould.

Don’t overthink it. The worst outcome is a pleasant conversation about your career. The best? Well, that's where it gets rather exciting.
