Verital Advisory Search

Senior Tax Accountant | Oak Brook, IL | Hybrid

Are you a Tax Senior looking for more review responsibility, better work-life balance, and a firm that genuinely invests in your career development?

I'm partnering with an established, boutique public accounting firm in the Oak Brook area that's looking to add a Senior Tax Accountant to its growing team.

This is a great opportunity for someone who enjoys reviewing tax returns, building client relationships, and gaining exposure to a variety of tax work rather than being limited to one specialty.

A few highlights:

  • Hybrid flexibility: Flexible work model supporting work-life balance with the option to work 2-3 days remote!
  • Compensation: $95K-120K + sign on bonus + annual bonus
  • Career growth: Individualized development plans with quarterly performance and career progression reviews
  • Review-heavy role: Take ownership of reviewing individual, business, and fiduciary tax returns
  • Diverse client exposure: Work with family-owned businesses, closely held companies, and individual clients
  • CPA support: CPA reimbursement, continuing education, and a structured mentorship program
  • 401(k) + profit sharing and comprehensive benefits
  • Advisory opportunities: Gain exposure to proactive tax planning, research, and consulting beyond traditional compliance
  • Supportive culture: Collaborative team environment where your contributions are recognized and valued

Who would be a great fit?

  • 3+ years of public accounting tax experience
  • Strong tax return review experience (highly preferred)
  • Experience with 1040s, 1065s, 1120s, 1120-S, and/or fiduciary returns
  • CPA, EA, or actively pursuing certification
  • Interest in mentoring junior staff and developing long-term client relationships

If you're a Tax Senior who enjoys public accounting but wants more ownership, a supportive team, and the opportunity to grow without getting lost in a large firm, I'd love to connect!

Message me directly or reach out at View email address on click.appcast.io for a confidential conversation.
