Parker and Associates Recruiting

Parker & Associates is a professional recruiting firm founded in 1997 by Cliff Parker, CPA, and specialising in recruitment of accounting, finance and taxation professionals. The company was established after Cliff Parker's 17-year career as a tax consultant with Price Waterhouse, KPMG and RadioShack Corporation, bringing deep sector expertise to recruitment operations. Parker & Associates serves a geographically diverse client base including local, regional and national public accounting firms alongside public and private companies across manufacturing, oil and gas, real estate, professional services, financial services, private equity and hedge fund sectors.

The firm provides both permanent placement and project staffing services across all accounting, finance and taxation functional areas. Parker & Associates operates on a philosophy of quality over volume, using a targeted search approach rather than bulk candidate submission. All candidates are pre-screened for role-specific qualifications before presentation to clients, reflecting the firm's commitment to avoiding time waste through unqualified submissions.

Parker & Associates positions itself as a long-term resource for clients and candidates through consistent, reliable service grounded in professional integrity and honest communication. The firm meets all candidates in person before client presentation and emphasises transparent discussion of both opportunity strengths and limitations. This approach seeks to build professional relationships rather than transactional placements.
