You'll be the day-to-day lead for a group of business clients. You'll make sure their books, tax returns and filings are accurate and on time, and that every owner understands the financial health of their business. You'll also work with an Accounting Manager on quarterly tax projections and annual tax planning, so advisory work is part of the job from day one.

A public accounting background with 3+ years preparing and reviewing business and individual returns.
