Senior Tax Accountant

Looking for tax work that challenges you, not just keeps you busy?

There comes a point in public accounting when another busy season is not enough.

You want more interesting clients, stronger technical conversations, and more opportunities to solve problems rather than simply move returns through the process.

This independent CPA firm in Grapevine TX offers that kind of step forward.

The firm has a close knit team of four, giving you direct access to leadership and the opportunity to become involved in client relationships from the beginning.

What makes the role particularly interesting is the client base.

Alongside individuals and privately owned businesses, the firm advises a significant number of international clients. That creates regular exposure to tax planning and more complex matters that go beyond routine compliance.

You will still prepare and review returns, but you will also have the opportunity to strengthen your technical judgement, broaden your experience, and understand the reasons behind the advice being given.

This could suit someone who enjoys learning, wants greater ownership, and would rather build deeper expertise than simply handle a higher volume of work.

Why this opportunity stands out

You will gain exposure to complex tax planning alongside core compliance work.

You will work with an established portfolio of international clients.

You will have direct access to firm leadership and meaningful contact with clients throughout the year.

Your work and contribution will be visible within a small, collaborative practice.

You will be able to broaden your technical experience without moving into a much larger firm structure.

What you will be doing

Prepare and review tax returns for individuals and business clients.

Support tax planning engagements across a varied client portfolio.

Work with international clients on tax compliance and planning matters.

Use Drake software to complete accurate and timely tax work.

Build trusted relationships as a year round point of contact for clients.

Support junior team members where appropriate.

Work closely with firm leadership on client service and technical delivery.

What the firm is looking for

Public accounting tax experience at Senior or Supervisor level.

Strong experience preparing and reviewing individual and business tax returns.

Someone who is comfortable taking ownership within a smaller firm environment.

Experience with Drake would be helpful.

Exposure to international tax would be beneficial, although a genuine willingness to learn is equally important.

CPA or EA credentials are preferred, but practical experience and sound technical judgement will also be valued.

You do not need to meet every requirement perfectly to start a conversation. Curiosity, capability, and long term potential can be just as important as matching every point on paper.
