Most senior tax accountant ads assume motivation comes from deadlines and fear. But the truth is, people don’t do their best work because they’re watched, they do it because the environment makes good work easier. That’s exactly what this Burbank-based CPA firm has figured out.

This is a firm that sits comfortably between “too small to invest” and “too big to care.” You get real client exposure, real conversations, and real ownership of your work, without the politics, silos, or endless layers of review that slow everything down. Decisions are made by people who actually do the work, which is surprisingly rare.

You’ll work across individuals, partnerships, and closely held businesses, with exposure to real estate and owner‑managed clients who value advice over box‑ticking. The work is varied, the expectations are sensible, and the team is built around collaboration rather than competition. Hybrid here isn’t a policy, it’s just how grown‑ups work.

• Hybrid schedule built on trust and flexibility
• A team that values judgment, not just utilization
• Direct access to clients and meaningful responsibility
• Enough complexity to stay interesting, without unnecessary chaos

• 4–7 years of tax experience in public accounting
• Strong experience with individual and pass‑through returns
• Comfortable working independently and collaborating with a team
• CPA or EA preferred, but not mandatory
• Someone who wants to do good work consistently, not just survive busy season

If you like the idea of being trusted to think, rather than micromanaged into compliance, this could be a very sensible move.
