Senior Accountant

The Cox Family Office Finance Team is seeking a highly motivated, detail-oriented Senior Accountant to join our Individual & Trust Accounting team — an integral function at the heart of a sophisticated and dynamic family office environment. This unique role provides the opportunity to contribute across a wide range of accounting functions, supporting the financial administration of high‑net‑worth individuals, a multi‑generational family, and strategic trust structures. As part of a collaborative and service‑driven team, the ideal candidate brings strong technical expertise, a refined attention to detail, and a proactive, solutions‑oriented mindset. A role within Family Office finance represents one of the most distinctive and intellectually rewarding niches within the broader financial services industry. Unlike traditional corporate finance or public accounting, a family office operates as a private wealth management firm dedicated exclusively to serving the complex financial needs of ultra‑high‑net‑worth families — managing assets across multiple generations, geographies, and asset classes simultaneously. Professionals in this space gain rare, cross‑functional exposure to sophisticated investment portfolios, trust and estate structures, tax planning, philanthropic vehicles, and direct private investments — all under one roof. The family office model demands a uniquely elevated standard of discretion, judgment, and technical depth, and in return offers unparalleled breadth of experience and long‑term career development within a collegial, mission‑driven environment. This individual will report to the Manager of Accounting in the Finance Group and may collaborate with additional teams within the Family Office. The Senior Accountant will be based in Atlanta and in‑office days will be required.

Learning and adhering to all relevant company accounting policies. Leading special projects, process improvement initiatives, and ad hoc tasks as assigned.
