Senior Tax Accountant
Distinct | North America
Ever notice how tax season feels like it lasts forever… and then suddenly, it's gone in a flash?
You come up for air in the summer, and everything's quiet. Too quiet.
Then suddenly — just like that — the right opportunity lands in your inbox.
This is one of those moments.
We’re working with a tight-knit CPA firm in New Jersey that’s looking to bring an experienced tax professional into their growing team. Not just to plug a hole — but to help shape the next phase of the firm.
This is the kind of place where:
- You actually know your clients — and they know you
- Your ideas are welcomed, not buried under layers of red tape
- You get real flexibility (hybrid schedules, remote options, and yes — time off that people actually take )
- Summers are lighter , not just “off-peak”
- You can do great work and still get home for dinner
They’ve got a loyal client base, a collaborative team, and a leadership style that’s more “open door” than “top down.”
About the role:
- Office based in northern NJ (hybrid / flexible setup)
- Mix of high-net-worth individuals, trusts, partnerships, S corps, and small businesses
- Tax planning, compliance, and advisory work (not just grinding through returns)
- Ideal for: Tax Seniors or Managers with 5+ years of public accounting experience
- CPA or EA preferred, but not required if you’ve got the experience
If you've been feeling like you're ready for more — more ownership, more balance, more say in how things are done — this is that kind of move.
Quiet summers don’t last forever.
When the right opportunity pulls up… make sure you get in.
