Talnt Jobs in Oklahoma (NOW HIRING)

Most Audit Senior opportunities revolve around checking boxes, clearing review notes, and getting through the next busy season. This one gives you a much bigger seat at the table.

A growing public accounting and advisory firm is looking to add an Audit & Assurance Senior to its team. This is an opportunity for someone who wants to move beyond simply executing an audit plan and start taking real ownership of engagements, client relationships, and the people coming up behind them.

You'll work directly with clients and firm leadership from planning through completion—understanding the business behind the numbers, identifying risk, solving issues as they arise, and helping clients strengthen their financial reporting and internal controls.

For someone who's ready to operate closer to the Manager level without waiting around for the title to catch up, this is the kind of role that can accelerate that progression.

What you'll be doing:

• Take ownership of audit, review, and assurance engagements from initial planning through final delivery
• Work directly with client management to understand their business, assess risk, resolve audit issues, and keep engagements moving
• Perform and oversee substantive testing, analytical procedures, internal control evaluations, and complex areas of audit documentation
• Prepare and review financial statements, cash flow statements, footnote disclosures, representation letters, and governance communications
• Develop audit strategies based on client operations, industry dynamics, economic conditions, and internal control environments
• Manage engagement budgets, deadlines, and deliverables while identifying issues before they become problems
• Research and apply GAAP, GAAS, and evolving accounting and auditing guidance to real client situations
• Review work, clear engagement notes, and maintain a high standard of audit quality and documentation
• Delegate work and provide hands-on coaching and technical guidance to Staff and junior auditors
• Identify opportunities to improve audit efficiency, strengthen client controls, and bring value beyond the audit itself
• Build relationships with clients that extend beyond simply requesting schedules and delivering financial statements

What you'll bring:

• 3+ years of progressive public accounting audit and assurance experience
• Bachelor's degree in Accounting, Finance, or a related field
• Strong foundation in GAAP, GAAS, financial reporting, audit methodology, risk assessment, and internal controls
• Experience preparing and reviewing audit workpapers, financial statements, and engagement deliverables
• Experience taking ownership of engagements, deadlines, and day-to-day client communication
• Ability to manage multiple engagements and competing priorities without sacrificing quality
• Confidence working directly with client management and communicating technical accounting and audit matters clearly
• Experience reviewing work and mentoring or developing junior professionals
• CPA, CIA, or active progress toward professional certification preferred
• Experience with privately held businesses, nonprofits, middle-market companies, or a diverse client portfolio is valuable

Why this one is worth a conversation:

At a lot of firms, making Senior means you're given more testing to oversee, more workpapers to review, and more engagements to keep moving.

This opportunity is about more ownership—not simply more volume.

You'll start owning meaningful pieces of the client relationship, developing the people working underneath you, and becoming more involved in the judgment and decision-making behind the engagement—not just executing it.

If you're already operating above your title—or know you're ready to—I'd be happy to share more confidentially.
