Accounting Team

We are always interested in meeting exceptional and experienced accounting professionals who believe that our firm and its unique work may be a good fit for them. If that describes you, let’s talk.

Our primary approach to building the team is through seeking out excellent graduating accounting students who are inspired by our mission and who want to make a positive difference in a highly professional environment. Recent graduates who join our team begin in the position of Staff Accountant.

As a member of our accounting team, we will provide you with a firm-issued notebook computer and all necessary peripherals. We also provide our own custom training. Additionally, you will be provided dedicated workspace in our office.

During your initial term of employment (generally years one and two), you will provide assistance in conducting audit field work at client offices, and you will be exposed to basic nonprofit tax compliance matters. During this stage of your professional career, you will be learning the “building blocks” of public accounting, such as:

How to successfully audit components of an organization’s financial statements
Financial accounting and reporting standards and related research
Tax compliance matters and related research
Developing sound written and oral communication skills

If you have not already done so prior to beginning work with our firm, we encourage you to sit for the CPA exam as soon as possible after college. We have found that this is often the most successful path to passing the exam.

You will work closely with the shareholders of our firm, providing you with excellent learning opportunities. As you progress “up the ranks,” you can expect promotions, increased compensation, a greater level of responsibility on client engagements and experience in supervising and training new entry-level members of our team.
