Job description

Tax Accountant 
Are you a tax professional who enjoys more than just the numbers? Do you thrive on client interaction, relationship-building, and providing tailored financial guidance? If so, this opportunity with a highly personable CPA firm could be the perfect next step in your career.

In this role, you’ll work with a diverse client base, including individuals, corporations, trusts, estates, and nonprofits guiding them through the full tax and accounting process. Your work will be varied and engaging, with responsibilities including:

  • Tax preparation and/or review (depending on experience)

  • Tax planning and strategy

  • Payroll and sales tax filings

  • Financial statement preparation

  • General accounting services

This firm is looking for more than just technical expertise—they value professionals who take a consultative approach, enjoy working directly with clients, and bring a personable, proactive mindset to their work.

If you’re an independent self-starter with a bachelor’s degree and ideally are either pursuing or considering your EA or CPA, this could be a great fit. This is an onsite role with the flexibility to manage and structure your own schedule.

If you’d like to know more about this position, click the apply button and I’ll be in touch. If you’re just browsing the job boards and haven’t dusted off that resume yet, that’s not a problem, you can give me a call or message first. You’ll find my number, email and LinkedIn profile on my contact card, to the left.
