Company Overview

Our client is a finance and advisory firm that supports founders, CEOs, and CFOs with outsourced accounting, tax, and financial operations.

They work with businesses and individuals across industries — including real estate, SaaS, and investment firms — helping them manage bookkeeping, tax compliance, and financial reporting without building a full in-house team.

Because the work directly impacts tax compliance, financial accuracy, and client outcomes, precision and reliability are critical. Mistakes here don’t just create internal issues — they can affect filings, liabilities, and client trust.

Your Role

We’re hiring a CPA / EA Tax Accountant to support US business tax returns (e.g., Forms 1120, 1120S, and 1065).

This is an execution-focused role. You’ll work closely with senior tax professionals and be responsible for preparing returns, organizing client documentation, and supporting filings with a high level of accuracy.

This is not a strategy-heavy or advisory role — the focus is on doing the work well, consistently, and on time.

Strong communication is essential. You’ll be working in a remote team supporting US-based clients, so clarity and responsiveness matter.

You’ll:

Prepare US business tax returns (e.g., 1120 / 1120S / 1065) under supervision
Work from client financials (trial balance, general ledger) and supporting workpapers (depreciation schedules, K-1s, book-to-tax adjustments, etc.)
Support tax filings and compliance processes (including extensions and state filings as applicable)
Organize and review client financial documentation
Assist senior accountants with tax preparation and deliverables
Ensure documentation is complete, accurate, and audit-ready
Track deadlines and support timely submissions during tax cycles
Communicate clearly with internal teams on progress, blockers, and updates

You Bring:

2–5+ years of experience in accounting or tax roles
3-5 years with a CPA or EA certificate
Hands-on experience with US business tax returns (1120 / 1120S / 1065 or similar)
Strong understanding of business tax basics (entity structures, income/expenses, depreciation, deductions, credits)
Good written and spoken English (critical for this role)
High attention to detail and accuracy
Ability to follow structured processes and meet deadlines
Comfort working in a remote, distributed team

Bonus Points:

Experience working with US-based clients or firms
Experience in tax season environments (high volume of returns)
Familiarity with tools like QuickBooks, tax software, or Excel
Experience with multi-entity clients (multiple returns, consolidations, or partnership allocations)
Exposure to industries like real estate, SaaS, or investment funds

What’s Offered:

Fully remote contractor role
Work aligned with U.S. business hours (overlap required)
Competitive USD compensation (based on experience)
20 days PTO + U.S. holidays
High exposure to US tax work and real-world client scenarios
Opportunity to grow within a fast-moving finance team

🔴 Important Note

Candidates without hands-on experience preparing business returns or with limited communication ability will not be considered.
