Senior Audit Associate
(Senior - Supervisor level considered)
Public Accounting experience essential
This isn’t an Audit Senior role where you’re stuck in a back corner ticking boxes. It’s hands-on, client-facing, and offers the kind of exposure that actually moves your career forward.
You’ll work with a close-knit team less than 50 staff on audits across a variety of industries from nonprofits to manufacturing and tech. You’ll touch every part of the engagement, with mentorship, support, and the chance to lead.
The firm? Modern. Not just in tech and systems - though they’ve got those too - but in mindset.
The partner group is young, open, and invested in your growth. There’s a formal mentor program and their vision is to continue expanding the firm while preserving its people-first culture
Outside of busy season, you’re looking at 40 hours or less. Busy season itself? 50 hours logged. And beyond that Summer Fridays, generous PTO to give you the time to check out, and a strong benefits package.
If you’ve got 4+ years of external audit experience and want a role where purpose, flexibility, and progression genuinely line up, this could be worth a conversation.
Interested? Not ready with a resume? Or want a bit more information before applying? No problem. You can still apply and ask Imogen. She’ll be happy to tell you more about the firm, the job and the prospects before you commit further.
Imogen Talbot-Slack is a Recruiter with Distinct Recruitment. She’s been recruiting in finance for over 9 years, with a focus on public accounting firms across Illinois and Indiana. She’s not a career salesperson she’s built her reputation by actually listening to what candidates want, whether that’s better hours, a path to partner, or simply a firm where they’ll enjoy going to work.
Think you only have 87% of the required experience? Perfect - apply anyway. The CPA firms we partner with want diverse, interesting people, not corporate clones stamped from the same tedious mould.
