Are you a CPA who actually enjoys the work — and wants to join a firm where you’re treated like family, not just another number?
At our independent CPA firm, we’re a tight-knit group of professionals who genuinely love helping our clients succeed. We’ve built a collaborative, supportive, and surprisingly fun environment that defies the stereotypical “dull accounting office” image. No soul-crushing cubicles, no rigid hierarchies, and no burnout culture. Instead, you’ll find real relationships, shared laughs, and a team that celebrates wins together — both for our clients and for each other.
We’re not just hiring an employee. We’re looking for partner-material talent — someone who shares our passion for excellent client service and sees themselves growing into a leadership role within our firm.
About the Role
As a Senior Accountant, you’ll work directly with a diverse and loyal client base, providing high-quality tax, accounting, and advisory services. You’ll have meaningful impact from day one, with the opportunity to take on increasing responsibility and eventually step into a partner position as we continue to grow.
What You’ll Do
Deliver exceptional tax preparation, planning, and compliance services
Provide insightful financial statement preparation and analysis
Build strong, trusted relationships with clients
Mentor and collaborate with junior team members
Contribute to firm growth through excellent service and potential business development
Help shape our culture and processes as we expand
What We’re Looking For
Active CPA license (required)
4+ years of public accounting experience (tax)
Strong technical skills with a client-first mindset
A collaborative, positive attitude and a sense of humor
Desire to build a long-term career and eventually become a partner
Someone who thrives in a close-knit environment where your voice matters
Why You’ll Love It Here
True work-life balance — We work hard but don’t believe in 60+ hour weeks year-round
Competitive compensation, benefits, and a clear path to partnership with equity potential
A genuinely fun and supportive team that enjoys spending time together
Modern tools and processes that make the work more efficient and less tedious
Opportunity to do meaningful work for clients who truly appreciate what we do
If you’re tired of the big-firm grind or the typical accounting mill and you’re ready to join a firm where you’re valued as a future owner and teammate, we’d love to meet you.
This isn’t just a job — it’s a chance to build something with people who will feel like your professional family.
How to Apply Please send your resume and a brief note telling us why you think you’d be a great fit for our culture to kargentati@hemkerholody.com. We review every application personally and respond to qualified candidates quickly.
