• $105,000
• Hybrid, 3 days/week in Roseville, CA A Little Spice Goes a Long Way Paprika Partners is a boutique financial firm built for a new generation of business owners.

The ambitious owner-operators, the diverse founders, and the unconventional builders who deserve the same quality of financial partnership as the big guys. We provide bookkeeping, accounting, advisory, and fractional CFO services for businesses ranging from $2M-$20M in revenue. We're not a corporate shop. We move fast, we think in systems, we geek out on AI and technology, and we show up as real human beings who genuinely care whether our clients win. Our team is small, deeply collaborative, and building something we're all proud of, and we're looking for someone who wants to be part of that.

The Role:

As a CAS Accounting Manager at Paprika Partners, you sit at the intersection of accounting excellence and client partnership. CAS (Client Accounting Services) means more than just keeping books. You're the person clients trust to keep their financial operations running at a high level while also being the relationship anchor that keeps them confident, informed, and well-served. You'll oversee the full accounting function for a portfolio of owner-operated businesses, including managing close, AP/AR, journal entries, accruals, and everything in between. You'll work collaboratively with our bookkeepers, staff accountants, fellow accounting managers, controllers, and fractional CFOs to deliver best-in-class service at every level of the engagement. This role demands someone who is equally strong on the technical side and the people side. You need to be able to roll up your sleeves and get into the numbers just as comfortably as you can sit across from a business owner and speak those numbers on the spreadsheet. This is a full-time hybrid role, with 3 days per week in our Roseville, CA office and flexibility the remaining days.
