  • The ability to move year-end files forward independently and recognize when to ask questions.
  • Strong attention to detail, sound judgment, and a commitment to confidentiality.
  • Clear, friendly communication and a practical approach to solving problems.
  • Confidence using accounting and tax software, along with Microsoft Excel.
  • Strong organization and the ability to balance competing priorities during busy periods.
  • A willingness to collaborate, share knowledge, and contribute to a small office.
What we offer
  • An annual salary starting at $100,000.
  • All CPA dues and professional development costs covered by the firm.
  • A health spending account that can be used toward a wide variety of eligible medical practitioners and treatments.
  • Direct access to experienced partners and CPAs.
  • Varied accounting and tax work across a range of clients and industries.
