State and Local Tax (SALT) Senior
Tired of the long hours and billable quotas that come with public accounting? This Chicago-based firm offers a refreshing alternative challenging work, career growth, and a genuine commitment to work-life balance.
Here, success isn’t measured by the hours you log but by the value you bring. With no billable hour quotas and an independent, organically grown structure, you’ll have the freedom to shape your career without the red tape of mergers or corporate ladders.
As a SALT Senior, you’ll focus primarily on income and franchise tax, handling a mix of review and preparation work, progressing toward 100% review as you advance. Your role will also include: • Tax research and memorandum preparation • Nexus studies and advising clients on multi-state tax matters • Consulting opportunities (though the role is primarily 80% compliance-focused)
Beyond the work itself, this firm is all about investing in its people. Through their mentorship program, you’ll have the support and guidance to grow your career. Their onsite gym and well-being assistance program reflect their belief that a successful accounting career shouldn’t come at the expense of your health and happiness.
The role is hybrid, with a flexible schedule that lets you balance professional success with personal priorities.

Not Sure You Meet All the Qualifications? We still encourage you to apply! If you don’t meet every requirement, don’t let that stop you. The firm is dedicated to fostering a diverse, inclusive, and equitable workplace, and we are always looking for talent with a range of experiences. If this role isn’t the perfect fit, we may have other opportunities in public accounting that are a better match.
