Senior Tax Associate

Senior Tax AccountantSaddle Brook, NJEvery Friday off in the summer. No fall busy season. 40 hour weeks for most of the year. And a firm where people actually stick around.Not a bad start, is it?I'm working with a CPA firm in Saddle Brook that's been around since the 1930s. Around 30 people, approachable partners and the sort of staff retention that suggests they're doing something right.They're looking for a Senior Tax Accountant or Tax Supervisor who enjoys working with privately held businesses, particularly commercial real estate partnerships.You'll handle complex tax returns, multistate matters and tax planning, working directly with clients and partners.Essentially, a chance to use your brain rather than just your ability to survive another filing deadline.A few things worth knowing:• Summer Fridays off. The office actually closes.• No fall busy season. Yes, really.• 40 hour weeks outside busy season.• Busy season builds from around 55 hours in early February to 60, peaking around 65. No pretending otherwise.• A stable client base of privately held businesses.• A friendly, established team where the partners are accessible and people tend to stay.• Plenty of variety, with opportunities to get involved in tax planning rather than just compliance.You'll ideally have your CPA, 6+ years in public accounting and strong commercial real estate partnership tax experience. You'll also be comfortable with multistate taxation, complex returns and tax projections.It's predominantly an office based role, so probably not one for someone wanting to work from their kitchen table 4 days a week.But if you enjoy being around good people, having proper client relationships and working somewhere that doesn't manufacture a 2nd busy season for the fun of it, this could be worth a conversation.You don't have to be unhappy to consider something better.Here’s the part most people get wrong: you don’t need to tick every box to introduce yourself. The apply button is not legally binding. Worst case? We chat, decide the timing isn’t right, and you carry on. Best case? You bag yourself a fantastic new position.Prefer the human touch? Splendid. Ring me up. I’m at 646-540-9666. Sometimes Indeed hides my number. If they’re sneaky like that, you'll find my details on LinkedIn. I’m Georgina Ross at Distinct North America. Also, I get it can be hard to talk with the fear of your Managing Partner walking past your office. I’m around early (6am EST) and after-hours too.
