Certified Public Accountant Jobs in New York: Frequently Asked Questions
How do you become a certified public accountant in New York?
To become a certified public accountant in New York, you must pass the Uniform CPA Examination and meet the education and experience requirements set by the New York State Board of Public Accountancy, which oversees licensure. New York requires a bachelor's degree with a concentration in accounting and a set number of accounting and business course credits. After passing the exam, candidates must complete supervised work experience before the Board issues an active CPA license.
How much do certified public accountants make in New York?
Certified public accountants in New York earn a median of about $102,640 a year, based on May 2025 Bureau of Labor Statistics wage data, ranging from around $63,700 for the lowest 10% to over $171,030 for the top 10%. Pay rises with experience, specialty, and employer.
Which companies hire certified public accountants in New York?
Employers hiring certified public accountants in New York right now include Grassi & Co., CPA's P.C, Calibre CPA Group, PLLC, and ADP, based on current listings on Migrate Mate as of June 2026. New York's density of global financial institutions, Big Four accounting firms, and large publicly traded corporations makes it one of the most consistently active states for CPA hiring year-round.
Which New York cities have the most certified public accountant jobs?
New York, Jericho, and Bohemia have the most certified public accountant openings in New York. New York City dominates due to its concentration of major accounting firms, investment banks, and corporate headquarters, while Buffalo and Albany generate steady demand from regional manufacturers, healthcare systems, and state government agencies that require ongoing accounting and audit support.
Are there remote certified public accountant jobs in New York?
Yes, and more than most fields, since certified public accountant work is largely analytical and document-driven. About 38% of certified public accountant openings tied to New York are remote or hybrid as of June 2026, reflecting how broadly firms have adapted since the shift toward flexible work. Tax advisory, financial reporting, and audit support roles are the most consistently available in remote or hybrid formats.
How can I get hired as a certified public accountant in New York with little or no experience?
The most realistic entry path is applying to staff accountant or audit associate positions at mid-size regional firms or the Big Four offices in New York City, which run structured new-graduate programs each fall. Firms like Deloitte and EY recruit directly from New York universities and accept candidates who are CPA exam-eligible but not yet licensed. Completing the exam sections before applying, or working as a bookkeeper or accounting assistant at a New York firm, builds the supervised experience hours required for full licensure while demonstrating readiness.
Where can I find and apply to certified public accountant jobs in New York?
