Job description

Tax Specialist (CPA) – Remote

100% Remote | $100,000–$150,000+ | Boutique CPA Firm

Are you a CPA with a strong federal tax background who enjoys complex tax work but is ready to leave the traditional public accounting grind behind?

We're partnering with a highly respected boutique CPA firm that serves sophisticated, high-net-worth clients in a specialized area of taxation. This is a rare opportunity to continue doing challenging technical tax work while building long-term client relationships in a collaborative, fully remote environment that values quality, sustainability, and work-life balance.

What You'll Do

• Manage a portfolio of established client relationships while serving as a trusted tax advisor.


• Prepare and analyze complex federal income tax returns for individuals, partnerships, S corporations, and C corporations.


• Research technical tax issues, identify planning opportunities, and provide thoughtful solutions.


• Collaborate closely with experienced leadership and reviewers in a highly specialized practice.


• Build trusted relationships with sophisticated clients while delivering exceptional service.


• Contribute ideas that support continuous process improvement and the firm's continued growth.

What We're Looking For

• Active CPA license required.


• 5+ years of recent public accounting experience with a strong emphasis on federal income tax compliance.


• Strong experience with individual, partnership, S corporation, and C corporation taxation.


• Excellent technical tax knowledge with the ability to identify issues beyond basic compliance.


• Experience managing client relationships and working directly with sophisticated clients.


• Strong proficiency in Microsoft Excel and Microsoft Office.


• Self-motivated and comfortable working in a fully remote environment.

Why This Opportunity Stands Out

• 100% remote with a collaborative, team-oriented culture.


• A true 40-hour workweek philosophy focused on sustainable workloads and exceptional client service


• Opportunity to become a recognized expert within a highly specialized tax practice.


• Work directly with sophisticated, high-net-worth clients on complex and intellectually rewarding tax matters.


• Structured onboarding, mentorship, and meaningful long-term career growth with leadership potential.


• Competitive benefits package including PTO, a 401(k) with company match, and a healthcare stipend.

Compensation

$100,000–$150,000+, depending on experience. Exceptional candidates with advanced technical expertise and long-term leadership aspirations are encouraged to apply.

If you're looking for an opportunity to continue solving complex tax challenges, build meaningful client relationships, and join a firm that prioritizes quality over billable hours, we'd love to connect.

All inquiries will be handled with complete confidentiality.
