Financial Accountant Jobs in Florida: Frequently Asked Questions

How do you become a financial accountant in Florida?

Most financial accountant roles in Florida require a bachelor's degree in accounting or finance, and many employers strongly prefer candidates who hold or are pursuing CPA licensure through the Florida Board of Accountancy. The Florida CPA path requires passing all four sections of the Uniform CPA Exam and meeting Florida's education and experience requirements before licensure. For roles that do not require a CPA, a relevant degree and internship experience are typically sufficient to qualify.

How much do financial accountants make in Florida?

Financial accountants in Florida earn a median of about $79,250 a year, based on May 2025 Bureau of Labor Statistics wage data, ranging from around $50,280 for the lowest 10% to over $131,930 for the top 10%. Pay rises with experience, specialty, and employer.

Which companies hire financial accountants in Florida?

Employers hiring financial accountants in Florida right now include Baptist Health, Navaide, and Stradit, based on current listings on Migrate Mate as of November 2026. Florida's mix of corporate headquarters, large regional hospital systems, real estate developers, and hospitality groups means financial accountant openings are distributed across multiple industries rather than concentrated in a single sector.

Which Florida cities have the most financial accountant jobs?

Jacksonville, Miami, and Tampa have the most financial accountant openings in Florida. Miami drives volume through its concentration of multinational corporations, private equity firms, and real estate companies, while Tampa and Orlando generate demand through healthcare systems, tourism conglomerates, and a growing roster of corporate back-office operations that have relocated from higher-cost states.

Are there remote financial accountant jobs in Florida?

Yes, and more than most fields. About 67% of financial accountant openings tied to Florida are remote or hybrid as of November 2026, reflecting how well the role's core tasks translate to off-site work. Financial reporting, month-end close support, and FP&A analysis are the functions most commonly performed fully remote, while roles requiring hands-on collaboration with operations or treasury teams tend to require at least a hybrid schedule.

How can I get hired as a financial accountant in Florida with little or no experience?

The most realistic entry path is a staff accountant or accounting associate role, which Florida employers in healthcare, real estate, and hospitality regularly fill with recent graduates. Large Florida systems like AdventHealth and Ryder System run structured new-graduate finance rotations that build the general ledger and close-cycle experience hiring managers want. Candidates who hold or are actively pursuing CPA licensure through the Florida Board of Accountancy stand out even without years of experience, as do those with internship credits from a Florida university accounting program.

Where can I find and apply to financial accountant jobs in Florida?
