- Review and adjust QuickBooks records to ensure accurate tax reporting
- Support month-end, year-end, and tax-season workflows across multiple client accounts
- Provide guidance and quality control for junior accountants and offshore support staff
- Assist with tax planning, workflow improvements, and internal process standardization
- Manage multiple client engagements while meeting filing deadlines and service expectations
Requirements
- 5+ years of public accounting or tax accounting experience
- Direct experience reviewing tax returns required
- Experience with individual and business returns, including partnerships, S corporations, and corporations
- Strong QuickBooks and general ledger accounting experience
- Experience working directly with clients in a public accounting environment
- Ability to work independently in a hybrid setting and manage multiple deadlines
- Strong attention to detail, communication, organization, and problem-solving skills
Benefits
- Competitive salary based on experience
- Health insurance and benefits package
