Sensiba LLP is a leading U.S.-based accounting and business consulting firm headquartered at Hacienda. It was recently named a 2024 Top 100 Firm by Accounting Today magazine, which annually ranks the 100 largest accounting firms in the United States. Earlier this year, the firm announced it had won the exclusive Best of Accounting 5 Year Diamond Award from ClearlyRated for providing superior service to its clients for the last five consecutive years. Sensiba has received ClearlyRated Best of Accounting honors for eight consecutive years.

Clients come to Sensiba for a variety of reasons, according to John Sensiba, Managing Partner, who has been at the firm for 30 years. “We’re accountants, consultants, and experts in good business. We use deep industry expertise to help the people in organizations solve problems, navigate complexity, and build a foundation for sustainable growth. As a Certified B Corp, we foster a culture where people and families can thrive.”

The firm’s steadfast belief in the Golden Rule is also noteworthy. “We treat our clients and communities the way we’d want to be treated,” he says. “We reiterate to our teams our expectations that they’ll meet their commitments, communicate, and be kind. This framework serves us well.”

To help clients meet their cybersecurity and reporting needs more effectively, the firm became accredited to certify organizations for the ISO/IEC 27001 and 27701 standards. These standards provide cost-effective cybersecurity and privacy frameworks to help clients, including those delivering solutions on the cloud, better understand their security risks and the steps they can take to mitigate them, according to company officials. The firm also consistently expands its sustainability and ESG services to help clients address their needs in this critical area and to support a healthier environment and planet.

“Outsiders might be surprised how much fun we have among our teams and as an organization,” according to Sensiba. “We work hard to support our clients and their needs, but many of our team members have formed deep friendships and support each other as well. When you embed kindness and communication into your organizational culture, it pays dividends.”

The firm is supportive of the local community as well. “Our money follows our people, with our donations following the organizations our team members support with their time and contributions. Among local examples, we’re proud to support the Tri-Valley Community Foundation, the George Mark Children’s House, the Innovation Tri-Valley Leadership Group, Second Harvest of Silicon Valley, Sequoia Hospital, Sunflower Hill, YMCA of the East Bay, and others.”

In 2016, the firm moved its headquarters to Hacienda, where it currently has 65 employees. It also has three other offices in California and two in Oregon. Over the past year, the firm grew its headcount by more than 25%, and reached a national footprint among its employees and customer base. The firm has in-office and remote team members in 35 states. The firm’s expanding workforce is a point of pride for officials but not the only one.

“While we’re proud of this milestone in our growth, we’re prouder that this expansion hasn’t diluted the strong focus on client service and a supportive internal culture that bolsters our growth,” Sensiba notes.
