Ted Rose

Rose Financial Services (“RFS”) CEO and Managing Partner, Ted Rose, has been selected by Accounting Today as a member of its 2017 class of the Managing Partner Elite.

Featured in Accounting Today’s October issue, the Managing Partner Elite program lists the nation’s top accounting firm leaders and highlights the qualities and characteristics that make them stand out among their peers. According to Accounting Today, “Candidates are judged on a wide range of criteria, including: quantitative data on revenue and staff growth; the growth and expansion strategies they have implemented; their leadership in building talented, dedicated staffs; innovation in service lines, practice management and client service; and adoption and promotion of cutting-edge technology.”

As a pioneer in the finance and accounting industry, Rose embraces a philosophy of continuous process improvement and incorporating technological advancements with RFS’ finance and accounting services to provide its clients with seamless workflow solutions.

Recognizing Rose’s commitment to innovation, Accounting Today says, “For the most part, great leaders don’t need to be deeply engaged with technology; they just need to appreciate its value. But there is a small subset of firms whose success is predicated on deploying and even developing the right tools, and Ted Rose’s is one of those. A long-time pioneer of accounting outsourcing, Rose has led his firm in continuous innovation and improvement, including building an entire suite of custom software that aims to give his clients powerful tools for automating finance and accounting functions with digital workflows, and even developing a mobile app to give them near-real-time access to critical financial information.”

“I’m honored to accept the recognition by Accounting Today as one of the 10 members of the 2017 MP Elite on behalf of the truly talented and dedicated staff of RFS,” said Rose. “The dedication of our team of finance, accounting, tax, and technology professionals to building the future is unmatched in the industry. I am honored to lead this team and look forward to continuing to find new and exciting ways to integrate suitable technological advancements into cost-effective and scalable solutions for RFS clients.”
