We do this by providing you access to client work through our managed marketplace and support your growing business by handling the marketing, operations, and business development so you can focus on doing what you’re best at.

  • Provide proactive tax planning advice to clients, identifying opportunities to minimize tax liabilities, maximize deductions, and optimize overall tax positions.
  • Stay updated on changes in tax legislation and regulations, conduct research on complex tax issues, and provide guidance to clients and internal teams on tax implications and strategies.
  • Interact with clients to gather tax-related information, provide guidance on tax compliance requirements, and address any questions or concerns they may have regarding their tax obligations.
  • Assist clients in meeting their tax compliance obligations, including filing deadlines, estimated tax payments, and any other required tax-related filings.
  • Conduct thorough reviews of tax returns and related documentation to ensure accuracy, completeness, and adherence to applicable tax laws and regulations.
  • Build and maintain strong client relationships, demonstrating a deep understanding of their business and tax needs, and providing exceptional service to promote client satisfaction and loyalty.

What You Bring

  • Bachelor's degree in accounting, finance, or a related field. Professional certifications such as Certified Public Accountant (CPA) or Enrolled Agent (EA) are preferred.
  • Minimum of 2 years of experience in tax preparation and planning, with a focus on serving clients at top 400 accounting firms.
  • Strong knowledge of federal, state, and local tax regulations, including experience with individual, corporate, and partnership tax returns. Familiarity with international tax matters is a plus.
  • Proficiency in using tax software applications such as Lacerte, ProSystem fx, CCH, or similar platforms. Experience with tax research tools and resources is highly desirable.
  • Strong attention to detail and accuracy, with the ability to review complex tax documentation and identify potential errors or omissions.
  • Excellent analytical and problem-solving abilities, with the capability to analyze complex tax situations and provide innovative solutions.
  • Effective communication skills, both written and verbal, to explain complex tax concepts to clients in a clear and understandable manner.
  • Demonstrated ability to prioritize tasks, manage deadlines, and handle multiple engagements simultaneously, while maintaining a high level of quality.
  • Ability to adapt to changing tax laws and regulations, as well as evolving client needs and priorities.
