  • Provide a variety of services based on client needs, including the preparation of partnership, corporate, individual and trust returns
  • Provide supervision, training and support to staff accountants and promote open communication to the engagement supervisor, manager, and partner

  • Act as a liaison between client and Snyder Cohn team members to provide job status updates, issues, and potential problems in order to successfully complete the engagement in accordance with the client’s expectations and Snyder Cohn’s commitment

Salary $85,000 - $105,000.

The above salary range represents a general guideline; however, Snyder Cohn considers a number of factors when determining base salary offers such as the scope and responsibilities of the position and the candidate's experience, education, skills and current market conditions. As such, in certain circumstances, offers may be outside of the listed salary range.

 

Snyder Cohn is a mid-sized CPA firm that puts staff development and client empowerment first. Named one of Accounting Today’s 2024 Best Accounting Firms to Work For, we cultivate a collaborative work environment, believe in work-life balance and are proud to offer exciting opportunities and incentives for professional growth, including continuing education and CPA exam assistance.
