Job description

Audit Manager Are you tired of the typical “public accounting grind” that leaves little room for family, personal time, and growth? Imagine a firm where your professional ambitions are supported, but your personal life is respected just as much. If you’re an experienced Audit Manager looking for a place where you can thrive without sacrificing work-life balance, this is the opportunity you’ve been waiting for.

This isn’t just another audit role. This is a chance to be part of a firm that’s grown organically with a team that’s been able to retain talent due to its culture—one that values its people and their well-being above all else.

With 45-50 professionals on the team, this firm is looking for an Audit Manager to help them continue their upward trajectory. Their approach? Expand thoughtfully, with a deep focus on the people who are helping the firm get there. Here’s what makes this firm truly different: They believe in flexibility and family-first values, with work-life balance being the foundation of their success.

During busy season, they make a point to keep hours under 50 a week, meaning you don’t have to burn the candle at both ends to succeed. Beyond tax season, you can expect more flexibility with family-friendly scheduling and remote work options.

As an Audit Manager, you’ll lead engagements across a variety of industries, including larger Non-Profits and Commercial clients. But it’s not just about numbers; it’s about building relationships and supporting a team that thrives. Your role will include:

• Leading Audit Associates and act as an in-charge facilitating field work • Contribute to the audit department’s growth. • Managing key client relationships, acting as the main interface to ensure smooth information flow • Perform Quality Control Reviews • Contributing to the firm development, business growth, and client proposals.

What You Bring to the Table: • A CPA (or actively working towards one) with solid experience in public accounting auditing, • Strong leadership skills and experience mentoring teams • A desire to work for a firm that understands the importance of career growth and family time.

This isn’t just a job it’s a career path with a firm that knows how to make both work and family fit together. They’re offering flexibility, opportunities for professional growth, and the chance to be part of a team that truly values your contribution. You’ll find my number on LinkedIn (Imogen Talbot-Slack at Distinct North America). If you prefer, drop me a connection or message on LinkedIn, and we can pick up on there.

If you’ve reviewed this advert and you’re unsure whether to apply because you don’t have all the required experience, we still encourage you to hit that apply button. If this position isn’t quite right, I’ll likely have other Public Accounting positions that could be a good fit for you.
