Job Description

Are you a seasoned accounting professional looking for a role that blends technical expertise, client engagement, and team leadership—without the relentless grind of traditional public accounting? If you're a burnt-out auditor or a technical accounting pro ready for a fresh, rewarding challenge, this is the opportunity for you!

Why This Role?

At one of Blackmere's clients, you'll find a workplace that values work-life balance (yes, really!) and a leadership team that prioritizes culture and professional growth. Unlike other firms, this team truly lives its core values, ensuring that both employees and clients align with a culture of integrity, service, and quality.

With some of the lowest billable hour metrics in the industry (we’re talking 4.5–5 hours a day on average), you’ll have time to focus on high-impact work—without burning out. Plus, you'll play a key role in shaping a growing accounting advisory practice, with the potential to build a path toward senior leadership and even shareholder status.

What You’ll Do :

  • Lead complex accounting advisory projects, including US GAAP conversions, ASC 606 revenue recognition, lease accounting (ASC 842), and financial statement preparation .
  • Work directly with clients , acting as their trusted accounting advisor while managing deliverables, deadlines, and expectations.
  • Coach and mentor a team that is hungry to learn, helping them level up their technical accounting expertise.
  • Review and oversee monthly financial close processes for clients transitioning to GAAP, ensuring compliance and quality.
  • Be a thought leader , researching and interpreting technical accounting issues while crafting white papers and technical memos.
  • Support business growth , helping develop and expand the firm’s technical advisory practice .

What You Bring :

  • CPA certification and 5+ years in public accounting (preferably with experience in audit, national technical consulting, or industry technical accounting).
  • Deep expertise in US GAAP —especially revenue recognition (ASC 606), lease accounting (ASC 842), and financial reporting.
  • Experience working with mid-market clients (typically $10M–$50M in revenue) across various industries.
  • Strong problem-solving skills —someone who brings solutions, not just problems.
  • A client-first mindset with exceptional communication and project management abilities.
  • A natural leader who enjoys mentoring and elevating a team’s technical capabilities.
  • What’s In It for You?

  • True Work-Life Balance – Forget 80-hour weeks. This role is designed for long-term sustainability with reasonable billable hour expectations.
  • Culture That Cares – No corporate lip service here. Leadership actively ensures the team aligns with core values—and even lets go of clients who don’t.
  • Growth & Leadership Path – This isn’t a “pencil-pushing” role. You’ll help build an evolving technical accounting practice, with a path to Senior Manager and beyond.
  • Competitive Compensation & Benefits – Strong base salary, great benefits, flexible work options, and a people-first approach.
  • Ready to Make an Impact?

    If you’re a technical accounting expert who thrives in a collaborative, high-trust environment, we want to hear from you. Apply today and be part of something more than just another job—build a career where your expertise is valued, your growth is prioritized, and your work has real meaning.
