A bit about us:

We are a full-service, independently owned CPA firm with approximately 100 professionals operating across 30+ states. While we're mid-sized by headcount, our client base is anything but: we regularly compete with Big 4 firms on complex engagements, and many of our senior team members have Big 4 backgrounds. They made the move to get the complexity without the grind. Our practice spans tax, audit & assurance, transaction services, and consulting, with deep expertise in business tax, particularly pass-through entities, closely held businesses, multi-state structures, and HNWI. We've been serving a broad range of outstanding clients for over 40 years, and we're growing quickly. Our team is fully distributed with professionals across the country.

Why join us?

Big firm work. Regional firm life.
We work on the kind of complex, multi-layered engagements that typically require a Big 4 badge to access - pass-through entities, complex partnerships, S-Corps, multi-state LLCs, C-Corps, and HNWI. The difference is our workload and culture. Busy season runs 50-55 hours per week; total annual hours are approximately 2,300. That's it.
Partners who are actually invested in you.
Our partners are hands-on and genuinely committed to staff development. Advancement here is real, not a talking point - and you'll have direct access to the people who can make it happen.
Compensation that reflects your value.

Base: $125,000 - $175,000 depending on experience
Annual bonus: $10,000 - $35,000
Work from home allowance: $3,600 - $6,000/year
Overtime paid for hours over 40 at staff and senior levels - rare in public accounting and a major driver of our retention

Benefits that actually cover you.

Medical: 90% of employee premiums paid by the firm; 80% for dependents
Dental, vision, long-term disability, and life insurance: 100% firm-paid for employees; vision covered for dependents
HSA and Section 125 plans available
401(k) with 100% match up to 4% of compensation, plus discretionary profit-sharing contributions
4 weeks PTO for managers and above, plus standard holidays

Flexibility built in.
With a national team, we're set up for remote work. Core hours fall between 7am-6pm PST with 8 hours of overlap expected - flexible within that window.
