At Magone & Company, we believe great auditors do more than issue opinions on financial statements-they become trusted advisors who help businesses make informed decisions and achieve long-term success.

As a growing public accounting firm, we provide external audit and assurance services to privately held companies, nonprofit organizations, and growing businesses across a variety of industries. Our clients rely on us not only for technical expertise, but for practical insight, strategic thinking, and lasting relationships.

If you're looking for a role focused solely on reviewing workpapers and managing compliance engagements, this may not be the right fit.

If you're excited about leading external audit and assurance engagements, working directly with business owners and executives, expanding your advisory skills, mentoring future leaders, and helping grow a modern CPA firm, we'd love to meet you.

About the Role

We're seeking an experienced Audit & Assurance Manager to lead financial statement audits, reviews, and compilations from planning through completion. You'll serve as a trusted advisor to clients while overseeing engagement teams, developing staff, and helping shape the future of our growing assurance practice.

This role offers meaningful exposure to firm leadership, direct client interaction, business development, process improvement, and long-term career advancement. You'll have the opportunity to influence how we serve clients while helping expand our advisory capabilities and embracing new technologies, including AI and automation.

Why You'll Love It Here

• Lead complex external audit and assurance engagements from planning through final presentation
• Build lasting relationships with business owners, CFOs, controllers, and executive leadership
• Develop into a trusted advisor by providing practical business insights beyond the audit
• Identify opportunities to expand client relationships through advisory, tax, and consulting services
• Participate in business development and networking initiatives that support the firm's continued growth
• Mentor and develop talented professionals while helping shape the next generation of leaders
• Work directly with Partners and contribute to strategic firm initiatives
• Leverage modern audit technology, AI, and automation to deliver exceptional client service

What You'll Do

• Manage financial statement audits, reviews, and compilations for privately held businesses and nonprofit organizations
• Lead engagement planning, risk assessment, fieldwork, and engagement completion
• Serve as the primary client contact throughout the engagement, delivering an exceptional client experience
• Present audit results and practical business recommendations to clients
• Review financial statements and ensure compliance with GAAP, GAAS, and professional standards
• Coach, mentor, and develop senior and staff accountants
• Identify opportunities to improve client operations and expand service offerings
• Collaborate with Partners on business development, firm initiatives, and strategic growth

What You'll Bring

• CPA license required
• Bachelor's degree in Accounting
• 5–10 years of progressive public accounting audit experience, including leadership of external audit engagements
• Strong knowledge of GAAP, GAAS, financial reporting, and assurance methodology
• Excellent communication and relationship-building skills
• A proactive, entrepreneurial mindset with an interest in advisory services and business development
• A passion for mentoring others and contributing to a collaborative, growth-oriented culture

Compensation & Benefits

Salary: $120,000+, based on experience.

We offer a comprehensive benefits package, including:

• Hybrid schedule (3 days in office/2 days remote, client visits)
• Employer-paid health and life insurance
• 401(k) with a 4% company match
• 16 days PTO plus paid holidays

• Three paid 4-day holiday weekends each year (Memorial Day, Labor Day, and Thanksgiving)

Why Magone & Company?

You'll work directly with Partners, collaborate with business owners, contribute to firm strategy, and gain experience that extends beyond traditional external audit—including advisory services, client consulting, business development, and leadership.
