Just got offered a staff accountant role at a mid-tier firm in Advisory. Can someone shed some light on the true responsibilities one may be tasked w/ in a position like this as I know advisory is different from audit & tax? Also what’s the pay range for a role like this; I reside in MO?

For the kind of reports and work obligations I conduct, I spend my days on Excel. Account reconciliations, journal entries for our general ledger depending on data I examine. Check the financials for accuracy. At the senior level, I take with our external auditors and offer them with the support they require. I also submit several reports to higher-ups, check staff work, and sign off on it.
