Overview of the Opportunity:

If you're a CPA (or working toward it), thrive in a collaborative environment, and have a passion for helping community-focused organizations stay financially sound and audit-ready, this may be your ideal next role.

This is not a large corporate environment it's a professional setting where your voice is heard, your expertise is valued, and your contributions directly support mission-driven clients. You'll lead audit engagements, provide mentorship to junior staff, and work with a diverse client portfolio that includes nonprofit organizations, affordable housing groups, and employee benefit plans.

Key Responsibilities:

• Lead and manage full-cycle audit engagements from planning through completion

• Supervise and mentor a team of auditors, ensuring high-quality deliverables and continued staff development

• Prepare and review financial statements, ensuring compliance with GAAP and other relevant standards

• Review and file complex federal and state income tax returns for individuals, trusts, corporations, and exempt organizations

• Maintain ongoing communication with clients, answering questions and offering proactive financial insights

• Participate in audit planning meetings and help develop tailored strategies for each engagement

• Collaborate closely with firm partners to ensure client satisfaction and long-term relationship growth

• Stay current on changes in accounting regulations and audit best practices, especially those relevant to nonprofit and affordable housing sectors

What We're Looking For:

• CPA license (active or in progress)

• Minimum of 2 years of experience in public accounting, ideally with a mix of audit and tax exposure

• Solid understanding of audit procedures, internal control evaluation, and risk assessment

• Experience with nonprofit audits, employee benefit plans, and low-income housing entities is strongly preferred

• Proficiency in audit and tax software (e.g., ProSystem fx, CaseWare, CCH Axcess, or similar)

• Strong attention to detail paired with a solutions-oriented mindset

• Ability to communicate effectively with clients, peers, and leadership both verbally and in writing

• Willingness to work onsite in Sacramento or Stockton (as needed)

Compensation & Perks:

• Base Salary: $90,000 - $120,000 USD (commensurate with experience)

• Incentives: Performance-based bonus structure

• Primary Location: Sacramento, CA with flexibility to operate out of Stockton office

• Relocation Assistance: Not available for this role

• Career Path: Defined path to Audit Manager or higher, with mentoring from partners who are actively involved in staff development

This role is perfect for an ambitious accounting professional who enjoys meaningful work, seeks growth in a smaller firm setting, and values work-life balance without sacrificing impact. If you're ready to build deep client relationships, lead important engagements, and grow with a firm that prioritizes its people you're encouraged to apply.
