Accounting Manager & Firm Administrator

Soukup, Bush & Associates is Northern Colorado's largest CPA firm. We’re proud of our local, regional, and national clients, our reputation for legendary service, and our growth. Our team includes about 50 associates who provide professional tax services, audit and accounting services, valuation consulting, cost segregation studies, education, bookkeeping, and small business planning. You can find out more about us at soukupbush.com.

Given that Soukup Bush is 5-10 times the size of many professional services firms in Northern Colorado, you couldn’t be an accounting professional in Northern Colorado and not know our name. If you have steered your career toward private accounting, you may not have considered working for a firm in public accounting. We have an opening that could change your mind! We're seeking an Account Manager & Firm Administrator focused on our business.

In a typical mid-size business, someone with the title "Controller" may oversee accounting and administrative functions while others focus on leading and growing the operation. That Controller would be the in-house financial expert. In a CPA firm like ours, it's a little different! We have about 50 financial and accounting experts, many of whom are recognized thought leaders in our region. As a result, we don't need Controller-level experience, education, and expertise. Instead, we are looking for an Accounting Manager & Firm Administrator to work directly with our eight partners as we lead and manage our firm's business.

Our Accounting Manager & Firm Administrator will oversee and be responsible for accounting, financial reporting and analysis, outside reporting, taxes, property and casualty insurance and claims, and oversight of outsourced administrative functions such as HR, payroll, and benefits.

Candidates Who We Will Consider Will Possess:

• At least five years of progressive accounting experience, preferably in a professional services firm in business to serve clients
• Education typically acquired through completion of a Bachelor’s Degree
• Leadership skills and the ability to influence optimal outcomes with or without line authority
• An amazing combination of emotional intelligence, excellent communication and organizational skills, detail-orientation, critical thinking, and problem-solving capabilities
• A passion for our firm, our clients, our team, and the challenge of building something for a better future.

This will not be the right opportunity for those who:

• Want to be isolated and left alone in an office or cube, uninvolved, and disconnected
• Do not have the drive and accountability necessary to meet the expectations of a high-performing team
• Aren’t exceptional at multitasking and prioritizing tasks that can come from multiple sources with clear or vague direction
• Don’t know how to be appropriately assertive while not getting their feelings hurt by others who are being appropriately assertive
• Can’t anticipate the unspoken and often unanticipated future needs of business leaders, management, and team.

Expected Salary - $90,000 - $125,000 depending on experience.

We expect to consider applicants for this position through September 30, 2026.

This is a full-time in-office role.
