Top 100 Firm Brady Martz & Associates announced that Jeffrey Pawlow has joined the Grand Forks, North Dakota-based firm as chief execution officer.
Pawlow was most recently president of Engineered Tax Services Inc. and its family of companies, including the two he co-founded before their acquisition by ETS: The Growth Partnership — a major consultancy and advisor to accounting firms — and accounting firm-focused CRM system ABLE.
With more than 30 years in the accounting profession, Pawlow is also a speaker and author, and will now be responsible for the day-to-day management of the firm, including advancing its "Vision 2028" initiative.
"Jeff's extensive experience and visionary approach align perfectly with our strategic goals," said Stacy DuToit, COO and CEO-elect of Brady Martz, in a statement. "We are confident that his leadership will be pivotal in driving our Vision 2028 initiative forward and further solidifying Brady Martz as a leader in the accounting profession."

"I've had the chance to look under the hood of many of the leading accounting firms in the U.S. in my prior roles," Pawlow said in a statement. "Given that perspective, I can honestly say that Brady Martz is unique when compared to their Top 100 peers. A dedicated C-suite of functional experts allows our shareholders to focus on driving client value in proactive ways rarely seen in other firms. This robust infrastructure also helps position Brady Martz as a legitimate alternative to private equity for firms looking to excel in a market that gets more competitive each day. I look forward to writing the next chapter of my career at Brady Martz and officially becoming a shareholder on October 1."
