We’re looking for an outgoing Administrative Assistant with a great attitude and excellent social skills to support our growing and dynamic firm - one who not only has the skills required for the role, but one who understands our culture well enough to represent it and our team well. We don’t require a specific background as an Administrative Assistant in a CPA office, but we do require experience in administrative assistance supporting a business leader in an office environment. That’s because this Administrative Assistant position will work directly with and report directly to a firm partner.

You should be comfortable navigating a range of personalities with a calm, solution-oriented approach.

In addition to office-based responsibilities, you’ll be part of representing the firm at local college campuses and career events. This isn’t an HR role, but we’re looking for someone who enjoys connecting with people, feels confident speaking with students, and can share our story with enthusiasm. You also need to be comfortable scheduling interviews and interacting with applicants of different educational and experience levels.  If you're outgoing, resourceful, and excited to support both internal operations and future talent outreach, we’d love to meet you.
