This position combines three key areas of responsibility:

Tax Preparation & Review,
Accounting & Tax Oversight, and
Fractional CFO / Client Advisory Services.

The ideal candidate will be an experienced accounting and tax professional who is comfortable working independently, reviewing the work of others, advising small-business clients, and serving as an escalation point for more complex accounting and tax matters.

We are looking for someone capable of providing senior-level technical expertise, review, and decision-making support to our existing accounting team and clients.

Tax Preparation & Review

In your capacity as a senior tax professional, you will:

● Prepare and review federal and state individual and business income tax returns.

● Prepare and review returns including Forms 1040, 1120-S, 1065 and 1120, along with other returns as experience permits.

● Review tax returns prepared by other team members for accuracy, completeness, and compliance.

● Identify potential tax planning opportunities and communicate recommendations to clients and the SME team.

● Research and resolve technical tax issues as they arise.

● Assist with tax notices, amended returns, and other client tax matters when necessary.

● Review year-end accounting information and adjusting entries prior to tax return preparation.

● Provide proactive tax planning and consulting to small-business owners and individual clients.

● Maintain accurate documentation and workpapers supporting tax positions and return preparation.

Accounting & Tax Oversight

A key component of this position is providing senior-level technical oversight to aid the SME team as client work is produced.

Responsibilities will include:

● Serve as an escalation point for complex accounting and tax questions from team members.

● Review accounting work and financial statements for accuracy and reasonableness.

● Assist with complex reconciliations, adjusting journal entries, and general ledger issues.

● Review balance sheets and identify issues requiring correction or further investigation.

● Provide guidance on accounting treatment for unusual or complex transactions.

● Support team members in resolving client accounting issues.

● Research accounting and tax questions and communicate practical recommendations.

● Collaborate with SME leadership on client matters requiring senior accounting or tax expertise.

● Help maintain quality and consistency across client accounting and tax work.

Fractional CFO & Advisory Services

For designated advisory clients, you will:

● Prepare and/or review monthly management accounts and financial reporting packages.

● Interpret financial statements and explain results to business owners in clear, practical terms.

● Assist clients with budgeting and financial forecasting.

● Prepare and analyze cash-flow projections.

● Identify trends, risks, and opportunities within client financial results.

● Assist clients with financial planning and strategic decision-making.

● Develop meaningful financial reports and KPIs based on individual client needs.

● Provide guidance on profitability, cash management, and business performance.

● Participate in client advisory meetings as needed.

● Support nonprofit accounting and advisory clients where applicable.

Required Experience

The successful candidate should have:

● 5+ years of tax accounting experience, preferably within a public accounting or small-business advisory environment.

● Strong experience preparing and/or reviewing individual and business tax returns.

● Strong knowledge of S corporations, partnerships, individual taxation, and small-business accounting.

● Experience reviewing financial statements, balance sheets, and general ledger activity.

● Strong understanding of double-entry accounting, adjusting journal entries, and financial statement preparation.

● Ability to independently research and resolve accounting and tax issues.

● Experience working directly with small-business owners and explaining complex financial concepts clearly.

● Strong analytical and problem-solving skills.

● High attention to detail and commitment to accuracy.

● Ability to work independently in a remote environment while collaborating effectively with an existing team.

● Ability to manage multiple clients and priorities in a fast-paced accounting environment.

Software Experience

Experience with the following is preferred:

● QuickBooks Online

● Drake Tax

● Payroll platforms and payroll accounting

● Microsoft Excel

● Client management and document management systems

Experience with additional accounting and tax software is beneficial but not required.

License / Certification
