Tax Senior Accountant

$98k - $122k

Distinct | North America

The first client meeting you run on your own is the one you remember. Not because it goes badly. Halfway through you notice they're asking you, and waiting, and there's nobody else in the room who's going to answer it. That's the senior seat at this South San Francisco firm. $98k to $122k and a hybrid week. Returns from the simple ones up to the ones that take a fortnight, individuals and businesses both, plus the research and the planning underneath them. You'd schedule your own work and talk to your own clients rather than waiting for a manager to pass it down. A lot of the client base is medical and dental practices, so if you've done owner managed businesses you'll recognise the shape of it. The firm isn't tiny and it isn't a factory either. The honest part: 4 years minimum, they want a CPA or someone on the way to one, and at this size there's no training department. You'd learn from whoever is sitting next to you, or not at all. Why this firm $98k to $122k, hybrid, out of South San Francisco Your own clients and your own meetings from the start Simple through to complex returns, individuals and businesses Planning and research as part of the job rather than a favour you do at 7pm Health cover, a 401(k) and a flexible schedule The catch: no training department, and 4 years is the floor What you'll be doing Preparing returns for individuals and businesses, simple through to complex Tax planning for owners and their companies Research when the answer isn't sitting in last year's file Running client meetings and scheduling the work around them What you'll have CPA, or on the path to it 4 years or more of preparing returns UltraTax is a help, not a requirement #J-18808-Ljbffr
