Senior Accountant Audit

Job Description

Senior Staff Accountant – Audit opportunity with a well-established CPA firm in California’s Central Valley!

This is an exciting opportunity for an experienced public accounting professional who enjoys audit work but is ready for more ownership, autonomy, and visibility. You’ll join a close-knit firm where you can work directly with clients and leadership while becoming a key part of the firm’s audit practice.

Responsibilities:

• Manage audit engagements from planning and fieldwork through completion

• Perform financial statement audits, reviews, compilations, and other assurance engagements

• Prepare workpapers, financial statements, supporting schedules, and reports

• Analyze financial records, account balances, and internal controls

• Identify audit issues and communicate findings and recommendations

• Work directly with clients throughout engagements

• Take increasing ownership of the coordination and oversight of the firm’s audit work

• Assist with tax and other accounting projects as needed

Requirements:

• Hands-on audit experience — this is not an entry-level audit opportunity

• Public accounting experience

• Bachelor’s degree in Accounting, Finance, or a related field preferred

• CPA license or progress toward CPA licensure is a plus

• Experience with audit planning, fieldwork, workpapers, and engagement completion

• Strong accounting and financial statement knowledge

• Excellent analytical, organizational, and problem-solving skills

• Ability to manage multiple engagements and deadlines

Why This Role Stands Out:

This is a chance to move beyond simply completing engagements and become an important part of the future of the firm’s audit practice. If you’re looking for a smaller-firm environment where your work is noticed, your ideas matter, and you can grow toward overseeing audit engagements, this could be an excellent next step.
