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 / Tax Accountant to support US individual tax preparation (Form 1040).
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 individual tax returns (Form 1040) under supervision
• Work with supporting documents (W-2s, 1099s, deductions, credits)
• Support tax filings and compliance processes
• 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
• Hands-on experience with US individual tax returns (Form 1040)
• CPA (completed or in progress preferred)
• Strong understanding of tax basics (income, 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
• EA (Enrolled Agent) certification or similar
• 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
