20 roles · top end $250K · 13 of 20 in Operational Accounting
Operational accounting owns this send - 13 of 20 roles fall in that category, with salary ceilings ranging from $85K on the low end to $250K at the top. Wipfli accounts for three of those postings alone, all in outsourced accounting, which tracks with where the firm is putting its capital post-PE deal. One pairing worth a second look at the high end: CohnReznick's Technical Accounting roles for life sciences, where the top range hits the send's ceiling.

Wipfli
Outsourced Accounting Senior Accountant
🌐 Remote - US · $66K-109K
In August 2025, Wipfli secured a significant minority investment from New Mountain Capital - the same PE firm that previously backed Citrin Cooperman and Grant Thornton - with the deal explicitly earmarked to expand talent and scale outsourced services. Three outsourced accounting roles in today's send, across general, senior living, and home health verticals, reflect that build-out directly.
