SkyWater is excited to be partnering with a local CPA firm here in the Twin Cities as they start thinking about succession planning. What’s cool about this one is the mentorship—there’s a real opportunity to grow quickly, and the path to partnership is much faster than what you’d find at a larger firm.

The managing partners are super down-to-earth and genuinely passionate about what they’ve built over the last 40 years. This isn’t just a tax prep role—it’s true consulting and strategy work. And the best part? You don’t need to already have that experience. They’ll train you and get you there.

It’s a great fit for someone who’s curious, wants to keep growing, and is excited about the idea of building their own book over time. There’s a ton of potential here—comp-wise, skill-wise, and business-wise.

Oh, and the culture? People stick around (10 year average), the benefits are strong, and the vibe is fun and collaborative.
