Our team operates in a fast-paced, entrepreneurial environment where professionals are expected to be hands-on and adaptableโ€”often โ€œbuilding the plane while flying it.โ€ We partner closely with our clients to deliver practical, high-impact solutions while continuing to grow a high-performing and collaborative practice.

  • Own the day-to-day management of client engagements, including deliverables, timelines, budgets, billing, and collections
  • Proactively identify and manage engagement risks, including handling escalations and sensitive client matters with professionalism
  • Build internal relationships and develop a deep understanding of the areas of expertise across the firm to identify opportunities for additional support for our clients
  • Support business development efforts, including preparing proposals, contributing to pitch materials, and tracking opportunities within a growing practice
  • Coordinate across internal teams and subject matter experts to deliver integrated, high-quality client solutions

  • Experience supporting or managing insurance tax compliance engagements, including familiarity with Forms 1120-PC and/or 1120-L
  • Exposure to tax provision and financial reporting, including ASC 740 (U.S. GAAP) and/or SSAP 101 (statutory reporting)
  • Familiarity with tax compliance systems and ability to manage or coordinate workflows through technology-enabled processes
  • Strong project management skills, with the ability to manage multiple engagements and competing priorities effectively
  • Demonstrated ability to build relationships with clients and internal stakeholders
  • Self-starter with a flexible, entrepreneurial mindset and the ability to operate effectively in a dynamic, evolving environment
