Audit Manager -Employee Benefit Plans (Multiemployer​/Taft-Hartley

Company

Description:

LaPadula Carlson + Co, is a certified public accounting firm that provides audit, assurance, tax, and advisory services to a single-employer and multiemployer (Taft-Hartley) portfolio of clients. The firm is committed to high-quality professional standards, tailored client service, and practical solutions that support long-term business success. Team members work in a collaborative environment that values integrity, technical excellence, and continuous learning.

The firm offers opportunities for professional growth, exposure to a variety of industries, and meaningful client interaction.

We are a well-established, growing CPA firm in Coral Gables (Miami), FL (Relocation assistance considered for the right candidate), with a specialized audit practice centered on ERISA employee benefit plans —not the typical 401(k) book. Our engagements are predominantly single-employer and multiemployer (Taft-Hartley) defined benefit pension funds, health & welfare funds, and related trust funds.

We are looking for an Audit Manager who already knows this world: someone who is comfortable with collective bargaining agreements, employer payroll compliance testing, actuarial reports, withdrawal liability concepts, and the DOL/IRS reporting ecosystem that surrounds these funds.

If you've spent your career explaining to other auditors what a Taft-Hartley plan is, we'd like to talk to you.
