The top 31 accounting firms in the Austin market that responded to Austin Business Journal survey employ more than 962 local certified public accountants (CPAs) and 3,220 professional staff in in the Austin area. Professionals include CPAs, accountants and other client-billable consultants such as risk management, compliance, technology consulting and forensics specialists. Overall the online list features 67 accounting firms, although not all provided local staff counts. These firms, ranked by total employees companywide, appear after the locally ranked firms. Altogether, the 67 firms featured online employ over 1.1 million people across the U.S. and globally. Information on The List was obtained through ABJ research or supplied by individual firms through questionnaires that ABJ could not independently verify. This list has a tiered rank by CPAs with ties broken by local professionals. Accounting firms that did not respond to employment surveys but were still included on this year’s List are sorted by estimated total employment figures derived from ABJ archives, annual filings with the U.S. Department of Labor and other firm-specific resources. Inclusion on this year’s list required each firm to have offices in Travis, Williamson, Hays, Bastrop, Caldwell and Burnet counties. This week’s List marks a shift in our research methodology and philosophy in 2025, one that will emphasize more data and context for readers while better coordinating the resources available to us and our 46 sister publications under the American City Business Journals flag. We anticipate this effort will identify thousands of new local records — and cumulatively, tens of thousands of new businesses across ACBJ’s footprint — this year alone.
