Senior Tax Associate (CPA Required)
In-Office Orlando | Full-Time | Competitive Salary + Bonuses

Overview
We are seeking a Senior Tax Associate (CPA) to join a growing tax team focused on high-quality tax compliance, planning, and client support—without the long hours typical of public accounting.
This role is ideal for an experienced tax professional who enjoys complex tax work, client interaction, and tax planning, while valuing a sustainable workload and collaborative, professional environment.

What You’ll Do

Review and prepare federal and state tax returns for:
High-net-worth individuals
Pass-through entities and trusts
(Forms 1040, 1120S, 1065, 1041)


Identify tax issues, risks, inconsistencies, and planning opportunities
Provide clear review notes and guidance to preparers
Prepare and review tax projections and planning strategies
Support clients with tax questions and year-round advisory needs
Conduct tax research and resolve technical issues
Collaborate with advisors and internal team members
Mentor junior staff and contribute to process improvements
Review and sign returns in accordance with credential and policy guidelines


What We’re Looking For

Active CPA or EA (required)
4–6 years of public accounting tax experience
Strong experience with individual and entity returns (1040, 1120S, 1065, 1041)
Experience with tax planning, projections, and advisory work
Knowledge of federal and multi-state tax compliance
Strong analytical, organizational, and time-management skills
Excellent written and verbal communication skills
Ability to clearly explain technical tax matters to clients and teammates
Comfortable working in an in-office, team-based environment


Preferred Experience

High-net-worth individual and closely held business clients
Reviewing tax work and coaching junior staff
Process improvement or workflow optimization
Experience with ProSeries or similar tax software


Compensation & Benefits

Competitive salary: $95,000 – $110,000, based on experience
Performance bonus starting at 3% after year one (up to 10% over time)
Annual team bonus eligibility (historically 5%–8%)
401(k) with 100% employer match on the first 6%
Health insurance stipend:

$498/month (first 24 months)
$833/month beginning month 25


Company-paid life, short-term, and long-term disability insurance
Paid holidays, PTO, and sick time
Firm-wide closure from Christmas Eve through New Year’s Day
Every third Friday or Monday off, averaging a 37.5-hour workweek


Why This Role Stands Out

Sustainable workload with intentionally managed busy seasons
Meaningful tax planning and advisory work—not just compliance
Supportive, professional, and respectful team culture
Long-term career growth without burnout
