About the Workload
This is a low-volume, flexible accounting role rather than a full-time finance position. The workload will vary depending on reporting, accounting, and tax requirements.
There may be periods with minimal work and busier periods around month-end, year-end, and tax filing deadlines.
We are looking for someone who is comfortable with this type of flexible arrangement and can be available when accounting or tax needs arise.
How to Apply
Please send your resume and a brief introduction outlining your CPA, accounting, and tax experience.
Please include your experience with S Corporations, QuickBooks, business tax preparation and filing, and any tax law experience.
