  • Provide budgeting support and financial analysis to help clients understand and improve performance.
Qualifications
  • 4+ years of experience in a CPA firm or public accounting environment.
  • Strong experience preparing small business and individual tax returns independently.
  • Advanced proficiency with Quick Books Online and professional tax software.
  • CPA or EA certification, or active pursuit of licensure.
  • Excellent problem-solving skills and comfort working with complex or incomplete financial data.
  • Strong communication skills with the ability to explain financial concepts to non-accountants.
  • Fully remote position within the United States.
  • Availability during standard business hours aligned with Eastern Time.
  • Flexible, trust-based work environment focused on outcomes rather than hours.
Why This Role
  • True remote flexibility with sustainable work expectations.
  • Competitive hourly and annual compensation.
  • Full benefits package, including health coverage, retirement plan, and home office support.
  • Investment in professional growth, including licensure support and continuing education.
