Seymour, IN. Candidates located in IN, KY, TN, IL encouraged to apply.

Blue & Co. is seeking a high-performing CPA professional with 3–5 years of experience to join our rapidly expanding agriculture practice. Our firm is experiencing significant growth in the agribusiness sector, and we are looking for a dedicated specialist to lead engagements within this fast-paced niche.

This position offers fully remote or hybrid flexibility. For candidates located near our Indiana offices, we provide a hybrid environment that blends in-person collaboration with the convenience of working from home. For those further afield, this role can be performed 100% remotely. Either way, you will join a firm that is aggressively investing in its Ag practice and professional development.

Key Responsibilities:

• Ag Engagement Leadership: Lead and manage financial statement audits, reviews, and compilations exclusively for agricultural cooperatives, grain elevators, and large-scale farming operations.
• Grain Accounting Specialist: Execute technical procedures for specialized areas including mark-to-market valuations, hedge accounting (basis and futures), and complex inventory valuations.
• Co-op Advisory: Manage the unique accounting requirements of cooperatives, such as patronage dividend distributions, per-unit retain accounting, and member equity tracking.
• Flexible Engagement Management: Coordinate and execute engagements using a mix of cloud-based audit tools and, if hybrid, periodic in-person collaboration to maintain high service levels.
• Growth Support: Contribute to the scaling of our Ag practice by refining audit programs specific to agribusiness and assisting with the onboarding of new agricultural clients.
• Staff Mentorship: Supervise and mentor junior staff, providing technical guidance on specialized Ag accounting both virtually and in-person as applicable.
• Client Service: Ability to travel as needed, including overnight travel, to client locations.

Required Qualifications:

• Certification: Active CPA license is required.
• Experience: 3–5 years of progressive experience in public accounting, with a primary focus on audit and assurance.
• Industry Expertise: Direct experience with agricultural cooperatives or grain accounting is highly preferred.
• Technical Proficiency: Strong expertise in US GAAP, specifically ASC 815 (Derivatives and Hedging) and ASC 606 as they relate to agricultural commodities.
• Ag Passion: A genuine interest in the agriculture industry and the desire to be a subject matter expert in a fast-growing niche.

Preferred Skills:

• Experience with grain merchandising software (e.g., Agvantage, AgVance, Great Plains) and cloud-based audit platforms.
• Strong analytical skills regarding commodity markets, hedging, and the financial impact of basis movement on grain financial statements.
• Proven ability to work effectively in a flexible environment, whether remote or hybrid.
• Excellent communication skills for delivering technical financial reports to Cooperative Boards and management teams.

We are responsive. We are caring. We are advocates.
