Job Description
As CohnReznick grows, so do our career opportunities. As one of the nation’s top professional services firms, CohnReznick creates rewarding careers in advisory, assurance, and tax with team members who value innovation and collaboration in everything they do!
CohnReznick helps organizations optimize performance, manage risk, and maximize value through CohnReznick LLP (assurance services) and CohnReznick Advisory LLC (advisory and tax services). Together, the firm provides leaders with deep industry knowledge and relationships, solutions to address clients’ unique business goals and risks, and insight on how emerging market forces can drive opportunity. With offices nationwide, the firm serves organizations around the world as an independent member of Nexia.
We currently have an exciting career opportunity for an Bookkeeper to join the team in our Jupiter office.
CohnReznick is a hybrid firm and most of our professionals are located within a commutable distance to one of our offices. This position is considered hybrid which means team members are expected to be thoughtful and intentional in how they create opportunities for in-person collaboration. While the cadence of in-office presence is determined at the team level, our professionals are encouraged to be in the office/together in person on average 3 days a week.
YOUR TEAM.
The Bookkeeper provides comprehensive accounts payable, cash management, and day-to-day bookkeeping support to clients that may include ultra-high-net-worth families and their related entities, including non-profits, businesses, and trusts. This role is responsible for preparing payables, monitoring cash positions and funding needs, maintaining accurate financial records, coordinating supporting documentation, and assisting with related accounting and compliance processes.
The Bookkeeper works with internal teams and, at times, may engage with clients and their advisors to ensure invoices and payment requests are accurate, properly approved, supported by complete documentation, and processed according to established deadlines and firm and client protocols.

We believe it’s important to balance work with everyday life – and make time for enjoyment and fun.
