About the role
CPA Opportunity | Build a Modern Advisory Practice
I'm looking for an experienced CPA who wants to build more than a traditional accounting practice. The right person will lead the accounting and tax side of a growing advisory platform while working alongside an M&A advisory and founder consulting business. This is an opportunity to serve business owners throughout their entire journey, from improving financial performance and reducing taxes to preparing for a business sale and planning for life after an exit. This is not a typical employee role. It is best suited for someone who wants meaningful client relationships, enjoys solving business problems, and is interested in helping shape a growing practice.
What You’ll Do:
Build and manage a CPA practice serving founder‑led businesses.
Provide tax planning and compliance services.
Review financial statements and improve reporting accuracy.
Develop cash flow, KPI, and financial performance dashboards.
Advise clients on profitability, growth, and operational performance.
Support business valuations, due diligence, and transaction preparation.
Assist business owners preparing for acquisitions, capital raises, or the sale of their company.
Collaborate on client strategies involving tax, business value, and long‑term wealth planning.

Our objective is to become the most trusted advisor in a business owner’s life by combining accounting, tax strategy, business consulting, and M&A advisory into one coordinated relationship. Clients come to us to improve their business today while preparing for opportunities tomorrow. Ideal Candidate Is a licensed CPA in good standing. Enjoys working directly with business owners. Thinks beyond tax returns and financial statements. Has strong financial and analytical skills. Communicates complex topics clearly. Is organized, responsive, and professional. Is interested in business strategy, entrepreneurship, and M&A.Enjoys building systems and improving client experiences. Experience with business valuations, transaction advisory, fractional CFO services, or exit planning is helpful but not required. Compensation
Compensation will be based on experience, availability, and the scope of responsibilities. The structure is intentionally flexible and can evolve as the practice grows. For the right person, there may be opportunities to take on additional leadership, expand responsibilities, or participate in future ventures as they develop. The Right Fit
This opportunity is for someone who wants to help business owners make better decisions, build stronger companies, and create lasting value. If you’re looking to build a respected practice while working on challenging, meaningful engagements with growth‑minded entrepreneurs, I’d welcome a conversation. About Tony Miller Properties

Before you apply
Applying takes about a minute. These four things decide how fast it moves after that.
Your profile is current
It's what we read first. Occupations, seniority and locations matter more than a long history.
Two examples you can talk through
Not a portfolio — just two pieces of work where you can explain the decisions and what you'd change.
A number in mind
What you're on now and what would make you move. We negotiate better when we know both.
Your notice period
Employers plan around it, and it's the question that stalls offers most often.
Once you apply, someone reads it and calls you before anything reaches the employer — usually within two working days.
