AUDITOR – Public Accounting (Junior – Mid Level)

A lot of folks shy away from public accounting. Google “What is the reputation of public accounting” and you get a pretty dim view.

At the same time, there’s a lot that makes it a great field, particularly early on in your career –

  • Exposure to different businesses and industries
  • Development of a huge professional network
  • Insight into different ways to approach similar challenges
  • Experience working with C-level individuals and business owners
  • Opportunity to develop / enhance consultative skills
What if you could combine the advantages of public accounting with the life balance of a traditional corporate job? This might just be that opportunity.

THE OPPORTUNITY:

Our client is a small CPA firm in central Ohio focused on small to mid sized businesses as well as not-for-profits. With growth, they are looking for an individual to join their team as an Auditor.

In this role, you do all the usual auditor stuff such as work with small business execs, examine financial records, make sure tax payments are made accurately and on time, lensure compliance with whatever regulations are appropriate for that business, etc. Beyond that, you work with clients to help them improve their operations from a financial reporting / accounting perspective.

WHAT IT TAKES:
  • A foundation of a year or more of professional accounting background and basic audit experience clicks the first box.
  • You’ll be in a client facing role a lot of the time, so strong interpersonal and relationship skills are key to success.
  • A curious nature and the ability to look at financials and sense something might not be right and then dig in.
  • Experience with common tools like Quickbooks and Excel.
  • Finally, a desire to continue to grow professionally, and work towards your CPA.
WHY THIS ONE:
So far it sounds like every other Auditor job out there. We asked the people that work there what makes it different:
“I like that there’s no politics here. Everyone is open and honest, no pretenses, and there’s no games.”

“The Managing Partner sits just down the hall, and I see him all the time. His door’s always open and I can just walk in and talk about a situation or ask a question.”

“It’s a real family-oriented company. If I need to take my kid to the doctor, I can do it and adjust my hours without being made to feel guilty about it.”

“As a college grad, I never thought I’d work at a small firm. But, I love it. A lot of energy and great folks to work with.”

“We do all sorts of team and community things, like charity golf outings and helping our not for profit clients with their events and initiatives.”
