Tax Accountant

A good move now can set you up for a much stronger year ahead. Are you putting in the hours, clearing the work, ticking the technical boxes, and still feel like the role is not quite moving you forward the way you hoped. The variety is limited. The partners are around, but not always easy to access. The work that would stretch you still seems to sit a level above you. And when you need proper guidance, it is not always as easy to find as it should be. If that sounds familiar, this Tax Accountant role with a small independent CPA firm in Addison, TX could be worth exploring. The firm has the kind of setup that can really help at this stage of your career. Small enough that you are visible, your work is noticed, and you are not just processing files in the background. Established enough that you are properly supported, well guided, and not left to figure everything out on your own. You will work closely with experienced people who are hands on and genuinely involved in the day to day. That means broader exposure across individuals and businesses, support when the work becomes more complex, and the chance to build confidence at a pace that actually feels like progress rather than just keeping up. For someone who wants to keep developing in public accounting, but would rather do it in a smaller firm where the learning is closer, the relationships are more direct, and the work feels more connected, this could be a very sensible next step. Joining over the summer gives you the best possible start. You will have time to settle in properly, build real confidence with the team, and walk into the fall deadlines feeling prepared rather than still finding your feet. What you will be doing Preparing federal and state tax returns for individuals and business entities. Working across 1040, 1065, 1120, and 1120S returns. Supporting more complex tax work as your experience and confidence develop. Working closely with senior team members and firm leadership on client assignments. Getting exposure to tax planning and advisory conversations over time. Building relationships with clients and becoming a trusted point of contact. Supporting bookkeeping or payroll related client needs where required. What they are looking for Public accounting tax experience, ideally around 5 years or more. Experience preparing tax returns for individuals and business entities. Someone who wants to keep learning, keep improving, and build a long term career in public accounting. A person who is comfortable asking questions, taking ownership, and being a genuine part of a smaller team. CPA / EA or progress toward it would be helpful, but is not essential. #J-18808-Ljbffr
