Nassau County, Long Island, NY | Senior Leadership Role with Equity Potential
About Us
We are an established, client-focused CPA firm based in Nassau County, Long Island, providing a full range of tax and accounting services to individuals and businesses. We have built a strong reputation for delivering personalized, high-quality service and are now seeking a seasoned professional to step in and make an immediate impact.
The Opportunity
We are looking for a highly experienced CPA who can hit the ground running — someone who brings deep technical expertise, strong client relationship skills, and the judgment to work independently from day one. This is a senior-level role with real influence over how the firm operates and grows. For the right person, a path to equity ownership is not a distant promise; it is a near-term goal we are committed to pursuing together.

● Serve as the primary point of contact for a portfolio of established clients on tax planning, compliance, and advisory matters
● Oversee bookkeeping and accounting engagements for business clients
● Mentor and support junior staff, helping elevate the quality and efficiency of the team
● Collaborate with firm leadership on strategic decisions, workflow improvements, and practice development
● Identify planning opportunities and proactively deliver value-added advice to clients
What We're Looking For
● CPA license required (New York; other state licenses a plus)
● 10+ years of public accounting experience, with demonstrated expertise in complex individual and business tax matters
● Deep knowledge of pass-through entity taxation (S-corps, partnerships, trusts) and multi-state compliance
● Proficiency with CCH Axcess Tax strongly preferred; QuickBooks Online and payroll platform experience a plus
● Proven ability to manage client relationships independently — you bring your own instincts, not just technical skills
● Leadership mindset — someone ready to step in, take ownership, and help shape the future of the firm
Compensation & Benefits
● Salary: $150,000 – $175,000, commensurate with experience
● Equity path — near-term ownership opportunity for the right candidate
