Job Description
Tax Preparer/Reviewer
Our established and reputable CPA firm located in the breathtakingly beautiful pine-covered mountains of Prescott, Arizona is currently seeking someone who loves taxes and wants to ultimately run a tax department as manager and eventually partner in one of the most beautiful places in the US. 90 minutes from Metro Phoenix, in the mountains with views, trails and lakes, Prescott is a sought after community to live in, raise a family, retire, work and play. We want someone who loves preparing, planning, reviewing, and passionately living Federal and State taxes! Not just a box filler, but someone who actually knows how to explain what the box filling actually results in and can explain that to a client. So client service and a good personality have to go hand-in-hand with tax geekiness! We can train on software and processes (which are paramount in running a firm), but we can't train experience, drive and the love of tax. We're all about integrity & honesty, respectfulness, compassion, responsiveness, teamwork, professionalism, and ambition. And did we mention fun, friendly and family? We are looking for a team member who shares our core values, has the tax geekiness and and wants to be in Prescott to grow with our firm. If you think this is the job for you, please reach out!
