Senior Tax Accountant

Tax Senior | Austin | Hybrid | Clear Route to Partner

If you’ve hit a bit of a wall at your current firm, this could be worth a look.

You know the feeling.

You’re doing the work. You’re taking on more responsibility. But somehow progression still feels like it depends on who’s above you, how long they’ve been there and whether somebody eventually moves out of the way.

This Austin firm does things differently.

The structure is flat, so there aren’t layers and layers of management between you and where you want to get to.

If Partner is the goal, there’s a clear route. No mysterious timeline. No “maybe in a few years”. Just clear expectations and the chance to prove you’re ready.

As a Tax Senior, you’ll work with a really varied client base, from start up tech businesses through to established professional services firms.

Your day to day will mainly focus on complex preparation across S Corps, Partnerships and Individuals, alongside first line review work.

You’ll also get closer to clients. That means building relationships, supporting with tax consulting and getting exposure to tax provision work rather than spending your whole week buried in returns.

And when busy season arrives, it’s busy, but it doesn’t completely take over your life. Peak season is capped at around 60 hours a week. Outside of that, you’re looking at 35 hour weeks.

Which, in Public Accounting, almost feels suspiciously civilised.

You’ll have a flexible hybrid schedule too, with a few days in the office by the lake and the rest from home. Not a bad place to spend the office days either.

Benefits include full healthcare coverage, enhanced PTO, 401k matching and a competitive bonus structure.

If you’re looking for a firm where progression feels more in your hands, this could be a really good next move.

It’s whether your current firm is still giving you somewhere to go.
