About the role
This isn't a one-trick role. We're looking for a bilingual tax professional who can review returns, jump in to prepare when needed, AND roll up their sleeves on real tax strategy implementation — all while helping grow a team that's changing how taxes are done for small business owners and high-net-worth individuals.
Responsibilities
- Review individual and small business tax returns (1040, 1120S, 1065, Schedule C/E) for accuracy, compliance, and missed opportunities
- Prepare tax returns for individuals and small businesses when coverage or capacity requires it
- Implement hands-on tax strategies across entity structure, compensation, real estate, and retirement planning
- Lead and present tax planning calls — kickoffs, implementation, and quarterly check-ins — in English and Spanish
- Research evolving tax legislation and IRS pronouncements to keep strategies current and effective
- Identify new planning opportunities within the existing client portfolio and surface them to the advisory team
- Mentor and support junior staff, including the Tax Return Reviewer, helping elevate the whole team
- Collaborate cross-functionally with accounting, finance, and client services on complex client matters
Requirements
- You hold an active CPA or EA license
- You are fully bilingual in English and Spanish
- You have 3-5 years of public accounting experience with a strong tax focus
- You're comfortable in all three gears: reviewing, preparing, and strategizing — without missing a beat
- You have a solid accounting foundation: bookkeeping, GL reconciliation, and financial statements
- You're curious, proactive, and genuinely excited by complex tax strategies
- You thrive in a fast-moving environment, manage competing deadlines with ease, and bring an ego-free attitude
Qualifications
- Competitive salary $90,000 - $95,000, based on experience
- 401(k) with company contributions and matching
- Paid time off, paid sick time, and flexible scheduling
- Clear path to a Lead Advisory or Tax Manager role as the firm grows
- Real community impact — your bilingual skills help Spanish-speaking business owners and families win financially
- A firm that values nerdy tax strategy, great people, and zero ego
