Build your tax career in a high-growth, team-driven environment where you’ll gain hands-on exposure to diverse clients and real advancement opportunities. This is a strong role for someone ready to deepen their expertise and grow within public accounting.

Staff Tax Accountant
Salary: $65,000 – $85,000


Why This Opportunity Stands Out:


  • Clear growth path with mentorship from senior tax professionals

  • Exposure to a wide range of clients (corporate, partnership, and individual) to accelerate your experience

  • Opportunity to build both compliance and tax planning skillsets early in your career

  • Collaborative, team-first culture that values development and internal promotion

  • Join a fast-growing, nationally recognized firm with strong stability

  • Nearly 100% employer-paid medical coverage plus strong overall benefits package

  • Hands-on involvement in process improvements and operational efficiencies

  • Consistent client interaction—build relationships, not just prepare returns

  • Supportive environment that encourages learning and technical skill development


Key Responsibilities:


  • Prepare corporate, partnership, and individual tax returns accurately and on time

  • Conduct tax research and assist with planning strategies to minimize client liabilities

  • Collaborate with clients to gather necessary tax documentation and respond to inquiries

  • Assist with resolving tax notices and matters with tax authorities

  • Contribute to improving tax processes and workflows


Qualifications:


  • Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in Accounting, Finance, or related field

  • 2+ years of tax experience (public accounting preferred)

  • Knowledge of federal and state tax regulations

  • Experience with tax software and accounting systems

  • CPA or progress toward certification is a plus
