Senior Tax Accountant | $80,000 – $110,000 | Monterey Park, CA (Hybrid)
Most tax job ads sound like they were spit out by a robot: returns, deadlines, busy season… repeat. But the real difference isn’t the tax code, it’s who you’re working with while navigating it. That’s where this Monterey Park firm does things differently.
They’re a small, established practice with a loyal client base and a workload that keeps you sharp without leaving you counting ceiling tiles in December. You’ll handle individual, partnership, S-corp, and corporate returns, touching industries from real estate and tech to professional services and entrepreneurial ventures. The work is varied, the clients are interesting, and the learning never stops.
Why this might actually make tax season enjoyable:
- Busy season peaks around 50 hours a week (life still exists outside work)
- Hybrid setup: collaborate in-office most days, work from home when you need focus
- A culture that prizes ideas over hierarchy
- Direct mentorship and genuine opportunities for growth
- Clients who are smart, appreciative, and keep the work stimulating
Who they’re looking for:
- 5+ years of public accounting tax experience
- Strong hands-on work with individuals, partnerships, and S-corps (real estate a plus)
- CPA or actively pursuing
- Comfortable with Lacerte, or quick to learn new software
- Someone curious, collaborative, and eager to make an impact
This isn’t a fully remote role, most work happens in-office to encourage collaboration and safeguard client data but flexibility exists when you need it.
If you’re done being a replaceable cog and want to see the real impact of your work, this could be the right fit.

Even if you don’t tick every box, apply anyway. We work with firms committed to diversity, equity, and inclusion, and if this one isn’t perfect, the next role might be exactly what you’re looking for.
