Talley partners with clients as business advisors, not just service providers, constantly seeking innovative ways to strengthen their bottom line.

Our professionals strive to become each client’s Most Trusted Advisor (MTA) by delivering global solutions to our client’s complex challenges and opportunities.

Our services include :

  • Audit & Assurance services, including financial reporting
  • Tax compliance,
  • Tax planning, and proactive advice
  • Business consulting
  • Estate planning, business planning, M&A, and tax law services delivered through TLG
  • Outsourced accounting, controller and CFO services

The incoming Partner will oversee existing client relationships, manage and develop the A&A team, and play a pivotal role in strategic firm growth—both through exceptional service delivery and through the expansion of a personal or firm-supported book of business.

You’ll work closely with other Partners and the executive team to integrate A&A solutions with Talley’s Tax, Legal, Consulting, and Wealth Management divisions, ensuring clients receive coordinated, high-value advisory support across the enterprise.

  • Provide strategic direction to expand value-added advisory services, including internal controls, valuations, M&A due diligence, and process improvement consulting that deepens client relationships and accelerate firm growth.
  • Leverage the full Talley ecosystem to meet client needs including Audit, Tax, Legal, and Consulting.
  • Operational Excellence

  • Provide strategic oversight of engagement planning, risk assessment, and quality control processes to ensure compliance with professional standards and alignment with firm objectives.
  • Provide strategic oversight to ensure optimal resource allocation and workflow efficiency through the effective use of technology and AI-driven tools.
  • Provide leadership and guidance in the firm’s adoption of AI-driven audit tools, analytics, and automation to enhance efficiency and service quality.
  • Oversee participation in peer reviews, quality assurance initiatives, and firm governance activities to uphold professional standards and continuous improvement.
  • Team Development

  • Provide strategic leadership mentoring and developing the next generation of Audit & Assurance leaders, fostering a culture of excellence and continuous growth.
  • Oversee the delivery of structured feedback, professional development initiatives, and leadership training to cultivate a high-performing Audit & Assurance team.
  • Provide strategic oversight to attract, develop, and retain a high-performing Audit & Assurance team built on accountability, collaboration, and professional excellence.
  • Ideal Candidate Profile

  • Active CPA (California) required.
  • 15+ years of progressive public accounting experience with 5+ years at the Partner or Director level.
  • Provide leadership and oversight in managing and expanding a high-performing audit practice, driving client growth, profitability, and long-term firm value.
  • Demonstrate the ability to attract, advise, and retain privately held business clients through exceptional service, trust-based relationships, and value-driven advisory solutions.
