Tax Manager

Tired of preparing the same returns on repeat?

We are a tax controversy practice led by an Attorney-CPA, and the work here looks different from a compliance shop. You will prepare fiduciary and entity returns - but you will also reconstruct books for non-filers who haven't filed in six years, analyze IRS account transcripts to find the real story, build the financials behind offers in compromise and installment agreements, and prepare returns that get filed into active examinations and appeals.

Every engagement has a problem attached to it.

• Active CPA license or Enrolled Agent credential (required)
• 5+ years preparing federal tax returns in a tax accounting firm, tax resolution firm, public accounting, a law firm tax practice, or a trust department
• Demonstrated hands-on experience with Form 1041 - this is a core part of the role, not an occasional return
• Solid working knowledge of pass-through and corporate returns: S corporation basis and AAA, partnership allocations and capital account reporting, reasonable compensation
• Comfort working independently on incomplete records and unusual fact patterns
• Clear written communication - you will be documenting positions that get reviewed by taxing authorities
• Helpful but not required: experience with international information returns (Forms 5471, 3520, 8938, FBAR), fiduciary accounting, or prior exposure to IRS examination or collection practice.
