About the practice

Boards of directors, grantors and donors, and in many cases federal, state, and local agencies all need a clear view of where the money went and what it accomplished. For tax-exempt organization, transparency is paramount, and the audit is one of the primary ways an organization demonstrates it.

A well-run audit does more than satisfy a funding requirement. It surfaces the questions no one thought to ask, helps reduce compliance risk, and gives boards, funders, and oversight agencies the confidence to keep investing in the mission.

Aprio's assurance advisors bring specialized, personal audit experience to that work. We focus on trusted relationships, clear communication, and efficiency at every stage of the engagement, so our clients can focus on their mission.

With you, our clients can Account for Anything™.

About the role

Aprio is seeking a senior manager to lead assurance engagements for tax-exempt organizations, including engagements subject to Single Audit requirements under the Uniform Guidance. Nonprofits carry a heavier compliance load than many organizations their size, and the cost of a missed requirement is measured in funding, not just in findings. This role is for someone who knows that landscape well enough to help boards and finance teams see what is coming.

Your primary focus will be nonprofit and tax-exempt organizations. You may support engagements in other industries as the practice needs, but your specialty is the reason we are hiring.

Position Responsibilities:

Engagement and client management

Lead multiple audit, review, and other assurance engagements concurrently, from planning and risk assessment through final review and delivery.
Serve as the primary point of contact for an assigned book of clients and build relationships that extend past the engagement calendar.
Own technical quality, performing final review of workpapers, financial statements, and other client deliverables before partner sign-off.
Manage engagement economics, including budgets, work in process, billing, and realization, and raise scope changes early rather than at the end.
Communicate clearly and often with partners, team members, and clients on expectations, status, findings, and open items.
Research and document technical positions and help clients understand new standards before they take effect.
Supervise and delegate across all staff levels, matching work to the right person and keeping engagements moving.

Business development

Take an active role in marketing the firm's services, contributing to proposals, and new business wins.
Build a network of referral sources, including attorneys, bankers, and other advisors in your industry.
Recognize cross-serving opportunities across tax, advisory, and client accounting services, and bring the right Aprio team to the table.
Represent Aprio in industry associations, at conferences, and through thought leadership.

Team development

Coach, develop, and energize associates, senior associates, and managers on your engagements.
Deliver candid, timely feedback and act as a counselor to less experienced team members.
Contribute to training in your industry specialty and help raise technical capability across the practice.
Support recruiting and retention by helping build a team that people want to stay on.

Qualifications:

Required

Bachelor's degree in accounting or a closely related field.
Active CPA license.
Ten or more years of current or recent public accounting experience, with a concentration in audit and assurance.
Demonstrated record of managing, coaching, and developing staff accountants.
Strong analytical skills apply to financial statements and other financial information.
Effective written and verbal communication skills with clients and colleagues.
Initiative and sound judgment, with a willingness to lead, decide, and work independently.
High standard of professional integrity and ethics.

Preferred

Experience presenting to boards, audit committees, owners, or lenders.
Experience with data analytics or audit automation tools.

Industry qualifications — nonprofit and Single Audit

Five or more years of assurance experience concentrated in tax-exempt organizations, with substantial Single Audit experience.
Working knowledge of Single Audit requirements under 2 CFR 200 (Uniform Guidance), including major program determination, the Schedule of Expenditures of Federal Awards (SEFA), the compliance supplement, and the schedule of findings and questioned costs.
Experience auditing in accordance with Government Auditing Standards (GAGAS, or the Yellow Book), and compliance with GAGAS continuing professional education requirements.
Working knowledge of nonprofit reporting under ASC 958, including net asset classification, the statement of functional expenses, contributions and grant revenue recognition, and conditional contributions.
Experience distinguishing exchange transactions under ASC 606 from contributions under ASC 958-605.
Experience with endowments and UPMIFA, donor restrictions, board designations, and liquidity and availability disclosures.
Familiarity with contributed nonfinancial assets, donated services, and gifts in kind.
