Cottrill
Arbutina: Everything You Ever Wanted in a Career:
- Top compensation
- Advancement opportunities
- Challenging work
- Variety of clients
- Excellent training
- Great benefits
- A personal life
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 a top priority.
We care about our employees and their families. Our focus
is not only on quality of work, but on quality of life.
We are dedicated to developing and sustaining a healthy
