Audit Director

An opportunity to shape a national audit practice. No business development targets. And the backing of a private equity investor that's serious about growth.Not your average Audit Director position, then.I'm working with a specialist CPA firm that's expanding nationally, both through acquisitions and organic growth.They've built a successful business auditing community associations, with thousands of clients across the country.And now they're looking for someone to help shape what the next chapter looks like.Here's the interesting part.You're not being brought in to inherit somebody else's way of doing things and spend the next 10 years maintaining it.They want someone with the experience and confidence to make the audit function better.Someone who can develop the Managers beneath them, improve how engagements are delivered and have a genuine say in the technology and processes the firm invests in.You'll work directly with senior leadership and the firm's internal development team, helping introduce AI and automation into audit workflows.And because the business is growing through acquisitions, you'll have the opportunity to influence how new teams and practices are integrated.Quite a lot more interesting than spending every day clearing review notes.And what about business development?There isn't a requirement to arrive with a book of clients or spend your evenings networking to hit a sales target.Your value here is your technical expertise, leadership and ability to build a consistently strong audit practice.That's what they want you concentrating on.Who would this suit?Someone who's already operating at Senior Audit Manager or Director level and knows what it takes to lead an audit function.You'll need an active CPA, experience holding final audit sign off or engagement quality review authority, and a strong background in audit quality and developing people.Experience with community association audits would be ideal, although backgrounds in nonprofits, Single Audits, employee benefit plans and governmental audits are also relevant.There's a competitive base salary and bonus, alongside a 401(k) match, medical, dental and vision coverage, paid time off and holidays, and covered CPA fees, CPE and professional dues.If you've spent the last few years thinking you could build a better audit practice if somebody actually gave you the opportunity, this might be the conversation worth having.Here’s the part most people get wrong: you don’t need to tick every box to introduce yourself. The apply button is not legally binding. Worst case? We chat, decide the timing isn’t right, and you carry on. Best case? You bag yourself a fantastic new position.
