Tax Accountant

Tax Accountant | Independent CPA Firm

Waxahachie, TX

Some firms talk about balance and stability, but day to day life tells a different story. Constant urgency. Shifting priorities. Everyone reacting instead of planning.

This firm operates the opposite way. This established independent CPA firm in Waxahachie (TX) is growing carefully and adding a Tax Accountant to a settled, close knit team. They have earned a strong local reputation by running a well‑organised practice, valuing long‑term relationships and creating an environment where people can do good work without unnecessary pressure.

One of the most appealing aspects of this role is the freedom around career direction. There is a clear pathway to Manager for those who want to progress. There is also a respected and secure long‑term role for professionals who enjoy the technical work, client relationships and consistency of a well run firm. Both paths are valued equally.

• A highly regarded local firm with deep roots in the Waxahachie community
• Genuine choice between progression to Manager or a long‑term Senior Tax Accountant position
• A collaborative, friendly culture where people stay for the long term
• A diverse client base including individuals, businesses, trusts, estates and multi‑entity families
• An organised, process‑driven environment focused on quality rather than churn

• Preparing and reviewing individual, partnership, corporate and trust tax returns
• Managing client relationships and providing thoughtful, ongoing tax support
• Supporting tax planning and advisory work throughout the year
• Working closely with senior CPAs to maintain consistent standards and workflow
• Mentoring junior team members if that aligns with your interests

• A CPA/EA (or on the path toward completion) with solid experience in public accounting
• Someone who values structure, professionalism and a positive team culture
• Comfortable communicating with clients and handling responsibility independently
• Interested in development but not motivated by pressure or internal competition
• A reliable team player who takes pride in doing things properly

This role is ideal for someone looking for stability, flexibility and respect in their career. Whether your goal is future progression or a long‑term Senior position, this firm offers a supportive environment where your contribution is recognised and your career can evolve at your pace.

If you are looking for a long‑term opportunity in Waxahachie with a firm that genuinely values balance and quality, this is well worth a closer look.
