Bowers + Current

Building for the Future

Careers

For almost 50 years, Bowers has been committed to delivering the trusted guidance, personal attention, and technical expertise our clients rely on to achieve their goals. As the business landscape continues to evolve, so do our clients' needs. Increasing complexity, changing regulations, and growing demands for timely insights require firms to think differently about how they serve clients and invest in the future.

To ensure we remain at the forefront of the profession, Bowers has joined Current, a national platform of independent accounting firms that is redefining how accounting services are delivered. This strategic decision enables us to enhance our capabilities, strengthen our resources, and create even greater value for our clients, while remaining the same locally led firm and trusted advisor our clients have always known.

A New Kind of Accounting Platform

Current is a national platform of independent accounting firms, built for how the industry is evolving. We bring together firms across the country to create shared advantage, combining advanced technology, global talent, and operational scale while preserving the independence, relationships, and expertise that make each firm successful.

What This Means for Our Clients

Being part of Current allows us to deliver more, without changing the team you trust. Through the platform, we have access to broader capabilities, deeper expertise, and modern tools that enhance how we work and the value we provide. That means:

  • More insight, not just reporting

  • Greater capacity and speed during peak periods

  • Access to specialized expertise across the platform

  • A more proactive, forward-looking approach to your business

  • Consistent quality, backed by shared systems and standards

Value Experience

Technology and AI at the Core

Current is built with a strong focus on technology and AI. Backed by Thrive Holdings, a leading technology investor with connections to OpenAI, the platform is investing in tools that fundamentally change how accounting work gets done.
 
From AI-enabled document processing to automated workflows and integrated systems, we are reducing manual effort, improving accuracy, and accelerating delivery, freeing up time to focus on higher-value advisory work. This shift allows us to move beyond traditional reporting and spend more time helping clients plan, decide, and grow.

Global Talent, Seamlessly Integrated

Through Current, we have access to a global delivery model that extends our team and increases our capacity. Specialized professionals across our global teams work as a seamless extension of our firm, supporting everything from preparation to execution while maintaining consistent quality and oversight. This approach allows us to scale efficiently, manage workload fluctuations, and deliver faster turnaround times without compromising service.

Value Success

A Model Built for Growth

Current operates on a partnership model designed to support long-term growth. Firms remain independent and continue to lead their client relationships while benefiting from shared infrastructure, centralized investments, and a broader network of peers. This enables: Faster, more sustainable growth Access to capabilities that would be difficult to build independently Increased investment in technology and innovation Stronger recruiting and career development opportunities

Value Community

Part of Something Bigger

At its core, Current is a collective: a group of firms working together, sharing knowledge, and building a platform designed for the future of accounting. For our clients, that means the best of both worlds: a trusted local partner backed by the strength, scale, and innovation of a national platform.
