Accountant/CPA

Location: Traverse City, MI | Status: Full-time

Are you a seasoned accountant who thrives on variety, values meaningful client relationships, and loves solving real-world business challenges? At Pyramid Tax, Accounting & Consulting, we’re looking for a forward-thinking professional to join our team.

This isn’t your typical number-crunching job. It’s an opportunity to work with diverse industries, support entrepreneurs, and help Michigan businesses succeed — all while growing your own career in a supportive, flexible environment.

What You’ll Do

You’ll be a trusted advisor to clients — not just someone behind a spreadsheet. Your day-to-day will include:

• Managing bookkeeping and keeping financial records accurate and up-to-date
• Preparing financial statements (P&L, balance sheets, cash flow)
• Running month-end closes and reconciling accounts
• Processing payroll and handling related filings (quarterly and annual)
• Analyzing financial data and providing insights to help clients grow
• Helping clients get the most out of QuickBooks Online
• Onboarding new clients and juggling multiple client engagements

What You Bring

We’re looking for someone who’s confident, curious, and eager to make an impact.

• Degree in Accounting, Finance, or related field (preferred)
• 3+ years of hands-on accounting experience; public accounting a strong plus
• 2+ years of payroll processing experience
• Proficiency in QuickBooks Online and Microsoft Office Suite
• QuickBooks Advisor Certification (bonus points!)
• Deep understanding of accounting principles and tax regs
• Strong communication and consulting skills — you know how to talk with clients, not just at them
• A valid driver’s license (because sometimes, we visit clients IRL)

Perks + Benefits

We know work is just one part of life — and we’re here to help you thrive in both.

• Competitive pay with Simple IRA Match
• Generous paid time off (yes, take your vacation!)
• Medical, and vision coverage
• Ongoing training, mentorship & professional development
• A collaborative, down-to-earth team that actually enjoys working together
