Now Hiring: Audit Manager – Not-for-Profit (NFP)
Lead meaningful work. Build strong teams. Make an impact where it matters.
Are you an experienced audit professional who thrives on leading others, building client relationships, and delivering high-quality work? Do you enjoy mentoring rising talent while staying hands-on with complex engagements? If you're passionate about the not-for-profit space and want a role that blends leadership, technical expertise, and growth opportunities-this could be your next move.
We're looking for a Manager, Not-for-Profit to play a key role in guiding audit engagements from planning through completion, reviewing workpapers and financial statements, and developing staff into confident, capable professionals. This is a high-visibility position with meaningful client interaction and room to grow.
What You'll Do
Lead & Develop Teams (30%)
- Mentor, train, and directly supervise Staff and Senior Accountants
- Provide ongoing coaching, performance feedback, and career development support
- Manage workflow distribution to keep engagements organized and on schedule
- Perform detailed technical reviews of audit workpapers and financial statements to ensure compliance with GAAP and firm standards
- Create and deliver training sessions to strengthen technical skills across the team

Why This Role Stands Out
This is more than just a "review and approve" role-you'll be trusted as a leader, a mentor, and a client-facing professional. You'll have the opportunity to make a real impact in the not-for-profit community while building a strong internal team and expanding your professional influence.
If you're ready to take the next step into leadership and want a role that offers both challenge and purpose, we'd love to connect.
