Vacancy expired!
We are growing our team at Blackmor, CPA, PLLC, located in the beautiful mountains of Western NC. We are a remote accounting department that serves post-acute healthcare companies across the U.S., so no audit or tax work. Our clients are loyal and extremely pleasant to work with, and our work is consistent and year-round vs. the traditional busy season burnout model. We are a flexible, work-life balance, close-knit, casual dress yet highly-skilled and motivated team of professionals. In this way, we're not your 'typical' CPA firm.
We consider technical proficiency a 'must-have' skill set, both in the typical areas like accounting systems, Excel and Office, but also in general computer use. We have high customer service standards since we interact and work alongside our clients on a daily basis through phone and email communications. Our structure assigns clients to dedicated individuals on our team, so candidates will need to understand customer service to a dedicated client base typically with long-term relationships.
Our compensation structure is to offer a solid base with incentive based on the total clients you serve. This means you're ultimately responsible for your compensation, which is tied to how we're doing both quantitatively and qualitatively.
