________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
As a smaller firm, we pride ourselves on building long-term relationships with both our clients and our employees. Our team works closely together in a collaborative, in-office environment where mentorship, accessibility, and professional development are part of everyday life.

Why join us?
Exceptional mentorship. Work directly with experienced CPAs and managers in a highly collaborative office where questions are encouraged and learning happens daily.
Grow your career. We believe in promoting from within. One of our current managers joined as a Staff Accountant just five years ago and advanced into leadership through mentorship and performance.
Broad tax experience. Gain exposure to individuals, partnerships, S-corporations, trusts, and closely held businesses instead of being limited to one niche.
Paid for every hour you work. Employees are paid hourly and receive time-and-a-half overtime during busy season, allowing you to be compensated for the additional effort that public accounting often requires.
Manageable busy season. Busy season averages approximately six weeks, and we're actively expanding the team to further reduce workloads.
Competitive benefits.
Employer-paid health insurance
$300 annual HSA contribution
SIMPLE IRA with 3% employer match
10 paid holidays
