Senior Tax Associate

Full-time

Distinct | North America

Tax Supervisor

Saddle brook, NJ

Not every CPA wants to be another number in a large firm.

If you're looking for a place where your work is visible, your voice is heard, and your career progression doesn't depend on waiting for someone else to retire, this could be the opportunity you've been looking for.

We're partnering with a well-established boutique accounting firm that has built its reputation on long-term client relationships, quality service, and a genuinely supportive culture. Their client base consists primarily of private companies and non-profit organizations, providing meaningful work without the complexity and pressures that often come with public company audits.

This is an office-based opportunity for a CPA with tax experience who enjoys working closely with clients and colleagues alike. You’ll be experienced in preparing 1065, 1120s, 1040, 1041 in a CPA firm setting. You will also have accounting experience to handle year end work papers and tax basis financials. Industries will include real estate, wholesale, distrubution, construction too. CCH software is a plus but non essential.

The firm offers something that can be difficult to find in today's market: approachable leadership, broad exposure across engagements, and a realistic pathway toward partnership. You'll work directly with decision-makers, gain visibility across the practice, and build lasting relationships with clients who value continuity and trusted advice.

The culture is collaborative, professional, and refreshingly free from internal politics. People stay because they enjoy the environment, the quality of the work, and the balance the firm has worked hard to maintain.

If you're looking for a long-term home where you can grow your career without sacrificing every busy season to endless hours and bureaucracy, we'd welcome a conversation.

Here’s the thing about job applications – this is where most people trip up. They treat them like some sacred checklist where missing one box means instant rejection from the HR gods.

Truth is, if this role sparks your interest, just hit apply. The button isn’t a lifelong commitment it’s the start of a conversation.

Prefer the old-fashioned human touch? Great. Give me a call at View phone number on click.appcast.io. Sometimes Indeed plays hide-and-seek with my number, but you can always track me down on LinkedIn – I’m Georgina Ross at Distinct Recruitment. I’m usually at my desk from 6am EST, so I’m easy to catch before your day kicks off. After 5pm works too, though I might be running on caffeine fumes by then.

Worried you’re only 87% qualified? Even better. The CPA firms we work with aren’t hunting for cookie-cutter clones – they want real, interesting people who bring something different to the table.

Don’t overthink it. Worst case? You’ll have a good chat about your career. Best case? Things could get very exciting.
