Looking for More Than Just Tax Compliance?

An established national CPA and advisory firm is looking for a Tax Senior Associate to join its growing team in Maryland.

This opportunity offers a combination of tax compliance, accounting and advisory work, with a particular focus on supporting businesses and entrepreneurs.

You'll work directly with Partners and Senior Managers, take greater ownership of client engagements and gain exposure to more complex tax and accounting matters.

For someone who enjoys the technical side of tax but wants broader client involvement and a clearer route toward management, this could be an excellent next step.

The Opportunity

You'll be involved in a variety of tax, accounting and consulting projects, supporting clients with both their ongoing compliance requirements and wider business decisions.

Your responsibilities will include:

• Prepare and review federal and state tax returns.
• Manage moderately complex tax and accounting engagements.
• Work directly with Partners and Senior Managers on client matters.
• Research complex tax issues and provide practical recommendations.
• Assist with tax planning and advisory projects.
• Analyse financial information to support client decision-making.
• Support larger engagements, including planning and coordination.
• Identify potential tax and accounting issues and help develop solutions.
• Supervise and review work completed by junior team members.
• Communicate directly with clients and build strong working relationships.
• Manage multiple assignments while maintaining quality and meeting deadlines.

What We're Looking For

• 3+ years of public accounting experience.
• CPA qualification or actively working toward obtaining it.
• Previous experience preparing tax returns.
• Ability to research and resolve technical tax and accounting matters.
• Experience supporting or supervising client engagements.
• Strong written and verbal communication skills.
• Confidence working directly with clients.
• Good working knowledge of professional tax and accounting software.
• Strong organisational skills and attention to detail.
• An interest in developing broader advisory and client management experience.

Experience working with construction businesses, contractors or closely held companies would be beneficial, although candidates with a strong general tax background are also encouraged to apply.

Why Consider This Opportunity?

This position offers the chance to build a broader skill set while continuing to develop your technical tax knowledge.

You'll benefit from:

• Exposure to a varied portfolio of business clients.
• A combination of tax compliance, accounting and advisory work.
• Direct collaboration with experienced Partners and Senior Managers.
• Opportunities to supervise and mentor junior professionals.
• Continued technical training and professional development.
• Flexible working arrangements.
• Competitive compensation.
• Open paid-time-off policy.
• 401(k) with employer matching and profit sharing.
• Medical, dental and vision insurance.
• Life and disability insurance.
• Employee and new business referral bonuses.
• A clear opportunity to progress toward Tax Manager.
