Senior Tax Accountant (Remote) - Revel CPA

We work to make the world of business and taxes come alive for creative entrepreneurs and their businesses! If we've done our job, these owners can breathe easy and sleep well at night knowing they're in good hands. As a team, we focus on being socially conscious, staying young-at-heart, and always learning.  We try to have fun and celebrate our humanity—while doing impeccable work, of course. And we are always looking for new ways of doing things, improvements to our systems, and strategies to help our clients. Are you ready to revel in our growth while helping thousands of creative entrepreneurs along the way?  

As a Senior Tax Accountant, you are an experienced accountant capable of accuracy across many clients. You know when to ask questions and are a skilled communicator when responding to client inquiries or reaching out to them for answers. You work efficiently, balancing speed with accuracy to ensure minimal errors on review of your work.

This is a full-time role at a fully remote firm (no going into the office!). There will be little to no overtime–even in tax season! Typical weekly responsibilities include:

• assisting clients with our online organizer process
• inputting some source document material into our tax software Ultratax
• reviewing some returns completed by staff accountants
• preparing and assembling 1040, 1065, 1120, and 1120S returns, including multi-state and self-employed returns
• preparing and submitting extensions
• researching tax issues
• communicating with clients when there are questions about their returns
• communicating with the Principal CPA on any questions that arise
• updating our project management tool with the current status of these returns
• passing along returns for final review to our Principal CPA
• other projects that may come up including, but not limited to, sales tax filings; tax planning preparation; nexus assessments

You'll have a flexible full-time schedule, be able to work-from-anywhere, and participate in company benefit programs. Compensation for this role starts at $75k/year.

Qualities to Bring to This Position:

• You're a get-it-done kind of person, and will ensure client deadlines are met and that we're following through on our commitments
• You understand what you know and what you don't know – and aren't afraid to ask for help
• You'll be an amazing communicator—making sure any soon-to-be missed deadlines are communicated about ahead of time
• You're super-comfortable working online, in cloud-based applications, and using a variety of software tools (with the appropriate training of course)
• You'll be able to balance being approachable yet professional in your communications—written and verbal
• You're an avid student of the latest in accounting rules, regulations, and guidelines—in fact, you geek out about it a little bit
• You're an accountant with 5+ years experience, the majority of which is in public accounting settings where you serve a variety of clients (preference given to small and mid-sized firm experience)
• You're comfortable in client-facing relationships and enjoy getting to know our clients' businesses (and them as people too!)
• You'll be detail-oriented, avoiding spelling errors or other careless mistakes in your work
• Your discretion is top-notch; our clients' privacy and sensitive information are always protected
• You've got a proactive attitude, and love finding new and better ways to help us get our work done well
• You have experience with at least one type of professional tax software (Ultratax experience is a plus)
• And you've used some sort of project management, task management, or practice management tool, so keeping track of your upcoming work and logging what you've done comes naturally to you

Thank you for considering the position and hope you'll be interested in joining the Revel CPA team!
