SkyWater is partnering with one of the most exciting and unique companies in the Twin Cities as they expand their team yet again due to growth. This is a great opportunity for a CPA who enjoy variety, problem-solving, and strategy, but isn’t drawn to long hours or tedious work papers.

The firm specializes in forensic accounting, analyzing financial information to support legal cases. As a Senior Analyst on a team of six, you’ll work on local and national matters, helping build the strongest possible case for clients at trial.

Unlike traditional public accounting, this is a performance-based environment that supports different working styles. Some team members value a consistent 40-hour workweek and strong balance, while others are financially motivated and choose to plug in more deeply, taking on larger and more complex cases to earn above and beyond their base compensation.

Either way, it’s meaningful, high-variety work that’s ideal for a CPA looking outside the traditional SOX or GL path of public accounting.
