About the role

Request for Proposals: Auditor
Our Story: MOBILIZE, ORGANIZE, VOTE AND EMPOWERMOVE Texas is a nonpartisan, nonprofit, grassroots organization working to build power in underrepresented youth communities through civic engagement, leadership development, and issue advocacy. In 2013, MOVE was founded by a small group of dedicated students at the University of Texas at San Antonio to increase participation in local elections. Since then our work has gone statewide to become one of the most effective voter registration and engagement groups in the state. Our theory of change is simple: develop new leaders, educate voters and create space for the changes we need to make so that our state can be a place where all Texans can thrive. We believe that together we are transforming democracy in Texas and beyond. MOVE Texas is a Texas-based organization focused on building the power of young people in our democracy. Our organizational structure includes two separate legal entities:
  • MOVE Texas Civic Fund (C3) – 501(c)(3)MOVE Texas Action Fund (C4) – 501(c)(4)
  • Organizational Budget: $3.2 million combined budget, most of the money coming in is C3 money. MOVE Texas is C4 operating.
  • Finance Structure: Our Finance and Operations team manages accounting, payroll, accounts payable, budgeting, grant reporting, and financial compliance across both entities.
  • Deliverables
  • We are currently accepting proposals from audit firms that can support our organization with both historical and ongoing financial review and audit requirements.
  • We are looking for a firm that can help us evaluate the appropriate scope and sequencing of this work and develop a realistic timeline for bringing both entities fully current.
  • Our anticipated scope includes:
  • MOVE Texas Civic Fund (C3)2024 financial review2025 audit2026 audit2026 tax filings moving forwardMOVE Texas Action Fund (C4)2024 financial review2025 audit2026 audit2026 tax filings moving forward
  • Accounting Systems & Current TransitionMOVE Texas is currently transitioning its accounting infrastructure to Sage Intacct. As part of that process, we are transferring historical financial information and establishing integrations between Sage and our other financial and operational platforms.
  • Key systems include:
  • Sage Intacct – General ledger and accounting
  • Bill.com – Accounts payable
  • Divvy – Organizational credit cards and expense management
  • BambooHR – HR and payroll-related dataMIP – Legacy accounting system containing historical financial information
  • Bill.com has been connected to Sage Intacct, while additional integrations and historical data migration work remain in progress.
  • Organizational Considerations
  • Because MOVE Texas operates both a C3 and C4 entity, accurate allocation and documentation of shared expenses, payroll, intercompany activity, and grant-related expenditures are important components of our financial reporting.
  • We are seeking an audit partner that is comfortable working with:
  • Nonprofit organizations with affiliated C3/C4 entities
  • Federal and foundation grant funding
  • Cost allocations and intercompany activity
  • Accounting system transitions and historical data migration
  • Organizations working to strengthen financial processes while completing prior-year reviews and audits
  • Process:
Our goal is to establish a long-term relationship with an audit firm that can not only complete the required financial reviews and audits, but also communicate clearly with our internal finance team throughout the process. Proposals are only accepted through BambooHR.The proposal should address the following: Detail your firm’s experience in providing auditing services to nonprofits of a comparable size to MOVE Texas, and multi-entity nonprofits if applicable.

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.
