US Tax Accountant (Part-Time)

About Visory At Visory, we're rebuilding how SMBs run their financial back-office. Most small and medium businesses already have the data – what they lack is clarity. By combining an agent-first workflow platform, frontier AI, and the judgment of world-class finance experts, we turn financial operations into insight, strategy, and confident decision-making. We're leading a new category of Service-as-a-Software businesses. Most software puts tools in customers' hands. We deliver the work itself. Agents sit at the core of every workflow; our experts focus on what only humans do best – judgment, relationships, and quality. Visory is VC‑backed and scaling fast, with a global team across Australia, New Zealand, and the United States. This role sits within our growing US tax practice.
