Job Description

Who We AreAt Mahoney, we have a passion for precision by going beyond completing the necessary tasks to deliver financial peace of mind. Our Assurance Solutions Team helps clients stay compliant, avoid surprises, and strengthens their financial reporting through targeted improvements. We perform a wide range of specialized audits, including HUD audits, employee benefit plans, and single audits. Located just outside downtown St. Paul along the Mississippi River, Mahoney has been recognized multiple times by Accounting Today, the StarTribune, and the Twin Cities Business Magazine as a top workplace.

These expanding responsibilities position you as a reliable point of contact for clients and help keep engagements moving smoothly from planning through completion. You play a central role in fortifying client relationships by implementing solutions, offering insights, and working closely with clients and colleagues to deliver meaningful results.
