    Job Description

    This is a remote position.

    About the Firm

    Our client is a well-established wealth management firm with a robust in-house tax practice, built through the acquisition of a large CPA firm and supported by its sister company. The firm is growing and looking to add a Tax Senior who thrives on high-volume return work and is ready to grow into a leadership role.

    About the Role

    This is a fully remote Tax Senior position supporting a transition of an existing book of business — roughly 150–200 returns annually, with a strong emphasis on business returns and 1040 work. You'll work alongside a collaborative team and have a realistic path to Manager within one to two years for the right performer.

    The ideal candidate is a focused, efficient tax preparer who takes pride in accuracy and throughput — someone who genuinely enjoys digging into returns and getting them done well.

    Key Responsibilities

    • Prepare a high volume of business and individual tax returns (150–200 annually), with a primary focus on business entities.

    • Work closely with team members to support a structured client transition and ensure continuity of service.

    • Maintain accuracy and efficiency across a diverse return mix under seasonal deadlines.

    • Contribute to team knowledge and, over time, take on mentorship responsibilities as you grow toward a Manager role.

    • Stay current on relevant tax law changes and apply them proactively across your book of work.



    Requirements

    • 2+ years of public accounting tax experience.

    • Strong business return preparation skills required; 1040 experience a plus.

    • Proficiency in CCH Axcess preferred.

    • CPA or EA preferred 

    • Detail-oriented, self-directed, and comfortable working in a high-volume environment.

    • Must be located in the Eastern or Central time zone.



    Benefits

    • Base compensation: $75,000–$125,000, commensurate with experience and credentials.

    • Bonus: Performance bonus paid in June, based on individual and firm experience.

    • Work arrangement: Fully remote

    • Paid Time Off: Flexible/unlimited PTO.

    • Retirement: 401(k) with company match.

    • Health coverage: Medical, dental, and vision insurance.

    • Professional development: CPE / professional development budget.

    • Growth path: Realistic path to Manager within one to two years for strong performers.

    • Culture: A collaborative, team-oriented environment that values autonomy, precision, and professional growth.
