Job Description:
Accounting Associate        
LarsonAllen is a top-20, multispecialty public accounting firm. We are nationally recognized as a powerhouse in the industries we serve, and for our expertise in serving privately held companies and their owners. We are more than a typical accounting firm; we are a resource for information and knowledge related to the business and financial challenges facing businesses and owners. 
Since the Firm's first day of operations in 1953, we've been dedicated to providing quality results to clients through our most valuable resource-knowledgeable professionals with a passion for helping clients succeed. We continue to grow every year, and have offices in more than 40 locations-from Boston to Orlando to Seattle to Phoenix and most places in between. Won't you consider joining our 1,800 professionals in delivering a Noticeably Different client experience?

We're looking for an Accounting Associate to join our Minneapolis/Medina Outsourcing team, and we really hope you're "the one." If you are, you should know that this position will be responsible for:
·        Client bookkeeping in-house and sometimes at client sites.
·        Monthly processing on PC.
·        Prepare compiled financial statements.
·        Prepare payrolls and payroll tax returns.
·        Prepare individual and corporate tax returns.
·        Prepare 1099s.
·        Set up and update depreciation schedules.
·        Assist clients with questions or concerns as necessary.
·        Special projects as assigned.

The successful candidate will be a detail-oriented individual with 5+ year's full-charge bookkeeping experience. Position will work directly with clients, so excellent communication and organization skills are a must.

This position requires solid knowledge of general ledger accounting, sales/payroll taxes, payroll processing, and Idaho State reporting. Ideal candidate must be very proficient in using QuickBooks and have solid Excel and Word experience. AA degree strongly desired, but experience will be considered in lieu of education.

LarsonAllen is committed to being nationally recognized as a great place to work and build a career. Our compensation and benefit packages-in addition to professional learning and development programs-are aligned with this commitment. An important aspect of our culture is to take our work seriously, not ourselves; we work hard to ensure all our employees have exceptional careers, challenging work, continuous learning, and the flexibility to successfully navigate the intersection of work and life.
