Assurance Manager (Atlanta)

TRC’s client, a well-respected and growing public accounting firm, has a direct hire opportunity for an Assurance Manager to join their team in the Buckhead Atlanta Area.

This is a true leadership role where you will oversee audit engagements from planning through execution, with full ownership of client relationships, financial statement delivery, and team development. You’ll play a key role in driving engagement success while mentoring and developing staff and seniors.

The firm works across a diverse client base including manufacturing, construction, real estate, hospitality, professional services, and not-for-profit organizations. This provides strong exposure to a variety of industries and business challenges, along with the opportunity to build deeper client relationships and have a meaningful impact.

This environment offers the best of both worlds—high-quality, complex work similar to larger firms, but within a more balanced and sustainable structure that allows for long-term career growth without the constant intensity often found elsewhere.

What you’ll be doing:

• Lead audit planning, risk assessment, and execution for multiple engagements
• Oversee the preparation and review of workpapers and financial statements in accordance with GAAP
• Ensure quality control and compliance with internal methodologies and external standards
• Manage timelines, budgets, and overall engagement performance
• Serve as a primary point of contact for clients, building strong, trusted relationships
• Delegate work effectively, provide clear direction, and review team output
• Coach, mentor, and develop associates and seniors to support their growth

What they’re looking for:

• CPA required
• 5+ years of public accounting experience within audit/assurance
• Prior experience managing or leading audit engagements
• Strong understanding of GAAP, financial reporting, and auditing standards
• Proven ability to lead teams and manage multiple priorities
• Strong communication skills and a client-focused mindset

The firm offers a collaborative and supportive culture, strong leadership, and a clear path for advancement. They are committed to developing their people, providing meaningful work, and creating an environment where professionals can grow their careers while maintaining balance.
