Our client is a well-established firm known for delivering top-tier tax consulting, planning, and compliance services to small and mid-sized businesses. They specialize in complex partnership and pass-through entity tax issues, and the individual returns that flow from these business owners.

With a team dedicated to making a real impact, they have experienced impressive growth over the last four years (100%+ YOY since 2019) and have maintained a very low turnover rate under 5% in that same timeframe.

• Experienced: You have 3+ years of experience handling complex tax matters within a CPA firm environment, and have a solid understanding of tax compliance and planning, particularly with partnership and pass-through entity issues.
• Detail-Oriented: You’re thorough in your work and committed to accuracy and high-quality service for clients.
• Client-Focused: You enjoy working directly with clients, listening to their needs, and helping them navigate complex tax issues.
• Team Player: You work well with others, communicate effectively, and contribute to the firm’s collaborative culture.
• Eager to Learn: You’re motivated to expand your technical expertise and progress in your career.

• Fully Remote: Work from anywhere – this isn’t just a work-from-home role, it’s a truly flexible, remote-first position.
• Work-Life Balance: Focus on sustainable hours year-round with no excessive billable hour expectations.
• Growth and Stability: Join a firm with a proven track record of growth and client success, where your contributions will help shape future success.
• People-Centric Culture: Enjoy a firm that values culture over the traditional CPA firm environment – your well-being and work-life balance matter here!
