Own More Than Tax Returns. Build Trusted Relationships. Grow Into Leadership.

At Haga Kommer, we believe great CPAs do more than prepare and review tax returns. They become trusted advisors to business owners, professionals, families, and organizations navigating important financial decisions.

HK offers a unique opportunity to be part of an integrated financial ecosystem. Employees can work alongside professionals across CPA/accounting, banking, wealth management, insurance, and legal services, creating broader exposure and career opportunities than a traditional standalone firm.

We're looking for an experienced CPA who is ready for greater client ownership, continued technical growth, and the opportunity to help develop others. You'll work directly with clients, manage complex tax engagements, provide planning and advisory support, and play an important role in the continued growth of our Elk River practice.

• Active CPA license
• 5+ years of recent public accounting tax experience preferred
• Strong experience with individual and business taxation, including partnerships, S corporations, C corporations, individuals, and trusts/estates
• Ability to prepare and review complex tax returns
• Experience managing multiple client engagements and deadlines
• Strong understanding of federal and state tax compliance and planning
• Ability to research complex tax matters and communicate recommendations clearly
• Strong client relationship skills and an advisory mindset
• Ability to communicate directly and confidently with clients
• Interest in mentoring and supporting developing professionals
• UltraTax CS experience preferred
• Nonprofit tax experience is a plus

Why Haga Kommer?

Own something. Build your career. Work across something bigger. Have a life. Help shape what’s next.

OWNERSHIP & WEALTH: Employee Stock Ownership Plan (ESOP)

We're building Haga Kommer for the long term, and we believe the people helping build our future should have the opportunity to benefit from its success.

Haga Kommer is working toward an Employee Stock Ownership Plan (ESOP), creating a path for employees to share in the value they help create.

INNOVATION: A Modern Approach

We're embracing AI and modern technology to reduce repetitive work, improve research and analysis, and create more time for the work that matters most…solving problems, advising clients, and building relationships.

You'll have the opportunity to work with evolving technology and help shape how innovation is applied within the firm. HK encourages employees to rethink traditional processes, improve how work gets done, and participate in building the future of the firm.

REAL CAREER GROWTH: Create Your Path

You shouldn't have to leave a firm to keep growing.

At Haga Kommer, employees aren't locked into one traditional career path. Strong performers have the opportunity to take ownership of larger client relationships, work on increasingly complex engagements, mentor others, and move into leadership as they're ready.

For someone who wants to become a future manager or leader within the firm, this role can provide meaningful exposure and a path to get there.

You'll join a growing organization where you can have a voice and help shape both your career and the future of the practice.

How do we support that?

• Continuing education and certification reimbursement
• Leadership academy and development training
• Increasing client ownership and advisory exposure
• Opportunities to mentor and develop others

LIVE WELL: Work-Life Harmony

Build a meaningful career without missing the life you're building it for.

We recognize that work and life naturally weave together. Professional success shouldn't require sacrificing the relationships, experiences, and quality of life that matter most.

We work hard, take exceptional care of our clients, and believe our people should still have space to be present for life outside of work.

HK employees are supported by a culture focused on sustainable performance rather than constant burnout.

How do we support that?

• Hybrid flexibility
• Summer Hours
• Generous PTO with eligibility for flexible/unlimited PTO
