Audit Manager

What You’ll Do For SSF

As an Audit Manager, you will lead engagements from planning through wrap‑up, working side‑by‑side with partners as a hands‑on, “working auditor.” You will:

• Plan, supervise, and complete multiple audit engagements for a diverse portfolio of not‑for‑profit clients—charitable organizations, foundations, and associations—while managing deadlines, budgets, and engagement profitability.
• Mentor and review the work of audit seniors and associates, fostering a culture of continuous learning and professional growth.
• Review and approve work papers, financial statements, and audit reports to ensure accuracy, GAAS compliance, and adherence to not‑for‑profit accounting standards (FASB ASC 958).
• Stay ahead of regulatory changes affecting the nonprofit sector and advise clients on accounting issues, internal controls, and best practices throughout the year—not just during audit weeks.
• Develop lasting client relationships by serving as a trusted advisor and responsive resource long after fieldwork ends.
• Contribute to business development by preparing proposals, networking with industry peers, making public presentations, and recruiting new team members.
• Participate in firm initiatives such as training, recruiting, and diversity‑and‑inclusion efforts, helping shape the direction of the Audit Department and the firm overall.

You’ll also have the freedom to cultivate your professional network at conferences and continuing‑education events alongside firm leaders. While there is a clear path to partner, there is no pressure to pursue that goal —you set your own trajectory.

• Professional growth every year: You’ll take part in firm-sponsored training, mentoring, and industry conferences, keeping your technical skills and leadership toolkit sharp.
• A voice at the table: Beyond client work, you’ll help shape firm initiatives—training programs, recruiting, and diversity‑and‑inclusion efforts—so your ideas directly influence how we operate and serve the nonprofit community.
• Choose your trajectory: There is a clear route to partner, but no pressure to pursue it ; we support the career path that fits your goals.
