Accounting professionals are our most important partners. Over the last 40 years, our partnership with you has further solidified itself through our shared mission: to help small businesses succeed. We firmly believe that small businesses are more successful when connected to an accounting professional, which is why we’re focused on connecting every business on our platform to you—to help you and your clients thrive.

At the same time, we’re also focused on helping you grow your practice and scale your impact, providing you with the accountant-specific products, tools, and programs you need to help you be more efficient, save time, and expand your QuickBooks® knowledge and expertise. QuickBooks Online Accountant and the QuickBooks ProAdvisor® Program, which this year celebrates 25 years, are two ways we deliver, for free, the products and programs you need to succeed.

To further accelerate globally our ability to develop and deliver the products and services you need to grow and scale, as well as drive even more connections with small businesses, we are expanding the team focused on delivering for ProAdvisors, accountants, and bookkeepers.

Jeremy Sulzmann, vice president and general manager of the Intuit® QuickBooks Partners Segment, now leads the team responsible for driving product strategy, improvements, and innovations for accounting professionals and developers across the globe. This includes product improvements specifically for accountants via QuickBooks Online Accountant and the ProAdvisor Program, and those across the QuickBooks platform that help accountants improve their workflows and deliver insights so they can be strategic advisors to their clients.

Jeremy has been part of the Intuit QuickBooks executive team for more than six years, leading the QuickBooks Self-Employed and Developer businesses.

“It’s an honor to lead a team focused on delivering innovations designed to help accountants experience greater time savings and workflow efficiencies so they can spend even more time advising and guiding their small business clients,” said Jeremy. “I look forward to deepening our partnership with this highly engaged, passionate community.”

Ted Callahan is now part of Jeremy’s Partners Segment team, and will continue to work closely with the accountant community. Ted continues to be focused on representing accountants’ voices across the QuickBooks organization to inform product strategy, and ensure we’re prioritizing and delivering the improvements and innovations that mean the most to accountants. Ted is also responsible for driving proactive and ongoing communications about product changes across the QuickBooks platform so you can continue to be a hero to their clients.

“Expanding the team focused on delivering for accountants demonstrates our continued commitment to their success,” said Ted. “I’m excited to continue to prioritize and deliver the products and services you and your clients need to thrive.”

Jessica McCracken, previously with Intuit, also returns, joining Ted’s team as a key member driving community engagement, including organizing Intuit’s QuickBooks Partner Council, and other event and feedback touchpoints planned throughout the year.
