CPA/Senior Tax Preparer

Distinct | North America

Trust and Estate professionals often find themselves choosing between two very different careers. Or you can join a smaller firm where you still use your Trust and Estate expertise, but also become a broader adviser to clients and build relationships that go far beyond one tax return. You’ll work with high-net-worth individuals, trusts, and estates while also gaining exposure to individual and business tax work. If you enjoy variety, client relationships, and being involved in planning conversations rather than simply processing returns, you’ll probably find this far more rewarding.

The firm has been serving clients for almost 100 years and has no intention of selling or taking private equity investment. They’re growing by bringing smaller firms into the business, creating opportunities for their people without changing the culture that’s made them successful.

Overtime is paid for every hour worked over 40 hours. Most people either bank those hours for additional vacation or take the cash payout at the end of the year.

A genuinely consultative environment where you’ll work closely with clients and their other advisers on planning as well as compliance.

Support for CPA qualification and ongoing professional development.

They value being together in the office because that’s how they develop people and maintain their culture, but they’re pragmatic when individual circumstances arise.

You’ll be preparing and reviewing a mix of Trust and Estate, individual and business tax returns, working directly with high net worth clients, and becoming a trusted adviser over time rather than simply completing compliance work.

We’re looking for someone with previous Trust and Estate tax experience who enjoys building client relationships. Individual tax experience is important, business tax exposure would be a bonus, and a CPA is preferred.

We support the CPA firms we partner with in building diverse, inclusive and equitable workplaces, so even if your experience does not align perfectly, please do still apply.
