Cottrill
Arbutina: Everything You Ever Wanted in a Career:
Work
in a professionally challenging environment
– Cottrill Arbutina team members work closely with
school district and government entities, credit unions
and non-profit-organizations as well as entrepreneurs
and owners of closely held businesses, providing solutions
to the many challenges they face. You will be directly
involved with a wide cross-section of businesses and
industries – and will be encouraged to develop specialties
in niches that interest you. You will be equipped
with the latest in technological advances to give
you all the tools you need to help clients' success.
You will never be bored!
Act
as a trusted adviser to entrepreneurs - You've
heard the horror stories of young accountants working
for months in a back room, day after day, on the same
audit. Our team members have a totally different experience.
You will quickly find yourself working directly with
entrepreneurs themselves, becoming their trusted adviser.
You will learn more than you ever imagined.
Be
part of a worldwide network of CPA firms - Cottrill
Arbutina is an member of CPA
Connect, a network with more than 2,500 CPAs in
75 large independent CPA firms and 220 local firms
from coast to coast across the United States. In affiliation
with Horwath
International, the CPA Connect network also includes
more than 10,000 professionals in 85 countries around
the world. Our CPAs have access to the knowledge and
resources of any of these professionals across the
country or around the world – at any time.
Earn
top compensation and advance faster - You
will earn excellent compensation and receive a first-class
benefits package. The major difference between working
for Cottrill Arbutina and a larger or even Big Four
firm is that you will have more opportunities for
promotion sooner, with a corresponding increase in
salary. If you prove to be talented and qualified,
the partner track is more attainable at our firm –
and in a considerably shorter time period – than elsewhere.
Learn
from experienced professionals - As you well
know, there is no substitute for experience. You'll
be working side by side with some of the most knowledgeable
CPAs in the business, including longtime partners
with our firm and in very exciting, cutting edge industries
and specialties – something you're not likely to experience
with a larger firm. CPE training opportunities are
also provided for every level of professional at our
firm, many by the CPAmerica network whose courses
have been rated among the best in the nation.
Enjoy
work/life balance - At Cottrill Arbutina,
you'll quickly learn that you are not a number. You're
