Job Description

Job Description

Tax Senior

Fairfield, NJ's boutique CPA firms move faster and promote sooner than the national chains - and this one gives you direct partner mentorship from day one. If you have three-plus years of public accounting tax experience and want to own a diverse client book instead of one narrow industry, this is your next move.

What you will do

  • Prepare and review complex federal, state, and local tax returns for individual, corporate, and partnership clients
  • Lead tax research projects to resolve compliance questions and uncover planning opportunities
  • Reduce client tax liability through proactive identification of savings strategies and credits
  • Serve as the day-to-day client contact: gather financials, set timelines, and communicate results clearly
  • Review and coach junior staff work product, providing real-time feedback to build team capacity
  • Ensure all filings meet current federal and state regulatory requirements and internal quality standards
  • Collaborate with partners on complex planning engagements and special projects

What you need

  • Bachelor's degree in Accounting or a closely related business field
  • 3+ years of progressive tax experience in a public accounting firm
  • Active CPA license or demonstrated progress toward licensure (e.g., parts passed)
  • Strong technical knowledge of individual (1040), corporate (1120/S), and partnership (1065) taxation
  • Proficiency with professional tax preparation and research software

Nice to have

  • Experience with state and local tax (SALT) nexus analysis
  • Exposure to trust and estate returns (1041)
  • Prior experience supervising or mentoring staff associates

Pay and benefits

  • Salary: $95,000 - $115,000 per year (based on experience and credential status)
  • Comprehensive health, dental, and vision insurance plan options
  • Retirement plan with company matching contributions
  • Paid time off program plus regular company-recognized holidays
  • Direct mentorship and career development access with firm partners

Location and schedule

  • Fairfield, NJ - Hybrid role with a flexible split between in-office and remote work
  • Full-time schedule with core business hours and seasonal flexibility

About and how to apply
We are a growth-oriented boutique CPA firm in Fairfield, NJ, serving a diverse client base of individuals, corporations, and partnerships. Our size means your work is visible, your growth is real, and partner access is a daily reality - not a distant milestone.
