The Phoenix Business Journal named eeCPA, a women-founded boutique CPA and consulting firm in Scottsdale, a finalist in its 2026 Best Places to Work Awards. For business owners looking for a Scottsdale CPA who offers proactive tax planning and outsourced CFO support, the honor says something useful about the team behind the work.

PBJ selected 90 finalists from 174 nominations for its 24th annual awards, spread across six size categories. We are a finalist in the micro category, for companies with 10 to 24 employees.

Why should that matter to you? When you choose a CPA, you choose the people who will learn your business. When those people leave, the context leaves with them: your entity history, your cash flow patterns, the plan for next tax season. A team that wants to be here stays long enough to know your business well.

We built eeCPA around that idea. Our clients want a strategic finance partner, not a revolving door. Each client works with a single point of contact backed by one team delivering integrated financial support. Eight core values guide how we treat each other and our clients: Care, Communicate, Commit, Create, Drive, Focus, Own and Partner. It is how we offer the sophistication of a national firm, without the bureaucracy.

Elizabeth Hale founded eeCPA in 2004. More than 20 years later, we serve entrepreneurs, commercial real estate developers and family offices in Arizona and nationally, with clients in California, Florida, Texas, the United Kingdom and Portugal.

This is our second straight year as a PBJ Best Places to Work honoree. Final rankings will be announced Dec. 10.
