Job Description

THE ROLE

Own your clients end-to-end – preparation, planning, and IRS/state resolution — in a small firm where good work gets noticed, instead of one return type on a large-firm conveyor belt. We pay for your Enrolled Agent certification, provide financial support toward CPA, and fund extensive continuing education.

What You'll Do
  • Prepare federal, state, and local tax returns for individuals, businesses, estates, trusts, nonprofits, and retirement plans (Forms 1040, 1041, 1065, 1120, 1120-S, 5500, 990, and related state/local filings).
  • Handle proactive tax planning and client tax questions.
  • Perform bookkeeping and payroll services, including Forms 940/941 and state unemployment filings.
  • Prepare financial statements and compilation-level work.
  • Support IRS and state notice, tax-resolution, and representation matters (based on experience and licensing).
  • Manage work papers and deadlines independently while working closely with the team.
