“How would you describe your team?” “We grew, but without losing what made us good in the first place.”
That's probably the best way to describe this team to you.
It would've been easy for the culture to disappear somewhere along the way.
It didn't.
The clients stayed. The people stayed. In fact, many of the team have been there for well over 15 years. That probably tells you more than any list of benefits ever could.
They're looking for an Experienced Tax Senior to join their boutique tax practice, working with ultra-high-net-worth individuals, family offices, private equity and venture capital professionals. The work is broad, from complex 1040s through to partnerships, trusts, corporations and international tax, often looking after an entire family structure rather than just one return.
What stood out most when I met the Managing Director wasn't the client base.
It was how open-minded they are about people.
Most firms have a long list of requirements.
This one doesn't.
They're looking for someone who enjoys tax, likes solving problems, and wants to keep learning. If you've come from a smaller or mid-sized firm where you've prepared returns, carried out research and worn a few different hats, you'll probably fit in well.
The team is predominantly remote, built around trust rather than who’s in the office, and they're investing heavily in where tax is heading, from AI tools to expanding their advisory offering. You don't need a CPA to progress here either. What matters is your ability, not the letters after your name.
Busy season is busy, around 60 hours only during the peak periods, but outside of that people have a life. The training is hands-on, so this will suit someone who's naturally curious and resourceful.
If you're looking for interesting clients, genuine variety and somewhere that's stayed true to itself whilst continuing to grow, I'd love to tell you more.
If you're just browsing the job boards and haven't dusted off your resume yet, that's not a problem. Give me a call first. You'll find my number on LinkedIn. Search Lucy Weibel at Distinct North America. Or if it's easier, send me a connection request or message and we'll pick it up from there.
If you've read this advert and aren't sure whether you have every bit of experience they're looking for, I'd still encourage you to apply. We work with CPA firms across the US that are committed to building diverse, inclusive and equitable workplaces, and if this isn't quite the right fit, there's every chance I'll know one that is.
