About the Firm
Our client is a well-established wealth management firm with a robust in-house tax practice, built through the acquisition of a large CPA firm and supported by its sister company. The firm is seeking an experienced Staff Accountant to join their professional team.
This position is ideal for a hands-on accounting professional who thrives in a production-focused environment and enjoys managing multiple client engagements with precision and autonomy.
About the Role
The Staff Accountant plays a key role in managing monthly client accounting engagements from start to finish, and prepares individual and business tax returns during busy season — giving this role real exposure to the firm’s in-house tax practice from day one.
This is a plug-and-play opportunity for an experienced professional who can independently own the monthly close process, including reconciliations, journal entries, and financial statement preparation, with a natural growth path into a Senior Accountant / Tax Senior role.

- Prepare and post adjusting journal entries and support month-end close processes.
- Prepare and finalize monthly financial statements.
- Review work when applicable and ensure accuracy of account classifications and reporting.
- Prepare individual and business tax returns during busy season.
- Communicate with clients as needed to gather documentation and clarify transactions (initially limited client-facing responsibility).
- Utilize QuickBooks Desktop and QuickBooks Online extensively as a power user.
Requirements
- 5+ years of accounting/tax experience, preferably within a public accounting environment (candidates with 8–10+ years are encouraged to apply).
- Strong understanding of general ledger accounting, reconciliations, adjusting journal entries, and financial statement preparation.
- Advanced proficiency in QuickBooks Desktop and QuickBooks Online required (power user level).
- Strong organizational skills with the ability to manage multiple client deadlines.
- Located in Eastern or Central time zone.
Benefits
- Compensation:$90,000–$150,000, depending on experience.
- Busy season bonus:Performance bonuses paid in June and December, based on individual and firm performance.
- Work arrangement:Remote or hybrid, depending on proximity to a firm office.
•Paid Time Off:Flexible/unlimited PTO.
•Retirement:401(k) with company match.
- Health coverage:Medical, dental, and vision insurance.
- Professional development:CPE / professional development budget.
- Growth path:A clear track toward a Senior Accountant / Tax Senior role within the firm’s in-house tax practice.
- Culture:A collaborative, team-oriented environment that values autonomy, precision, and professional growth.
