  • Contribute to process improvements and training

Ideal profile
  • Bachelor’s degree in Accounting, Finance, or a related field; a master’s degree is preferred

  • 5+ years of public accounting or audit experience

  • CPA certification, or active progress toward it

  • Advanced understanding of GAAP, auditing standards, financial reporting, and relevant regulations

  • Proven experience managing audit engagements independently, including budgeting, scheduling, staffing, and client communication

  • Strong leadership skills with experience supervising and mentoring audit professionals

  • Ability to manage multiple engagements and competing deadlines while maintaining quality

  • Proficiency in accounting and audit software and Microsoft Office

Compensation & benefits

The posted base salary range is $115,000 to $140,000. Benefits include flexible paid time off, medical, dental, and vision insurance, a 401(k) with employer matching, life insurance, paid parental leave, hybrid work flexibility, and coverage of CPA licensing and continuing education fees.
