Which companies hire senior corporate accountants in Arizona?

The most realistic entry path is starting as a staff accountant or accounting analyst at a large Arizona employer while actively pursuing CPA licensure through the Arizona State Board of Accountancy. Major Arizona employers such as Banner Health, Maricopa County, and large public accounting firms with Phoenix offices regularly hire entry-level and new-graduate accountants into rotational or structured programs that build toward senior roles.
