The Opportunity
As an Executive Recruiter in our Accounting & Finance team you will initially focus on candidate sourcing and development, working directly with a VP of Client Service in our A&F Team. You will learn about our clients, the various roles we recruit for, and gain knowledge of the market. As you progress you will be able to counsel candidates and match them to career opportunities that benefit the candidate and the client. Positions in our A&F group range from Senior Accountant to Chief Financial Officer as well as project-based roles. As your career progresses you have multiple avenues for advancement. You can choose to continue to recruit full-time while working on higher level roles, move into a business development role, or a hybrid role.

There is no limit on the timing of your advancement or the level of advancement.
You will have the option of working remotely, in the office, or any combination thereof. We are located in downtown Jacksonville, in the VyStar building. For those of us who are available to do so, we meet in the office every Wednesday and take turns selecting a restaurant location for lunch.

Every nine months we attend a conference, as part of our involvement with the American Association of Accounting & Finance (AAFA). This is a group of 40 firms similar to ICX Group, across the U.S. and Canada. We are hosting the next conference in the spring of 2022. This is a great opportunity to meet and network with individuals from our partner firms. You also have the opportunity to work on jobs in other cities through our AAFA partners, including our ICX office in Los Angeles.
