Growth & Expansion Support

  • Support implementation of higher-value services (tax planning, tax resolution, CFO advisory, insurance integration where compliant)

  • Assist with onboarding and integration of acquired firms

  • Prepare RMJ Consultant to scale from hundreds to thousands of clients annually

  • Help position the firm as acquisition-ready and institution-grade

Qualifications

Required

  • 5+ years of experience in an accounting or tax firm environment

  • Strong understanding of tax operations and professional services workflows

  • Proven experience managing teams and firm operations

  • Ability to both lead strategically and execute hands-on when needed
