BURDICK RICHARDSON

Burdick Richardson, PLLC is a newly formed, independently owned tax and accounting practice beginning operations November 1, 2026, with a focus on tax compliance, planning, and related advisory services. We are building the practice intentionally around thoughtful client service, modern technology, clear processes, and sustainable careers. This is an opportunity to join near the beginning and help shape how the practice works.

THE ROLE

This role is for an experienced administrative or operations professional who is exceptionally organized, takes ownership of processes, and enjoys detailed, hands-on work. Prior tax-preparation experience is a plus, but we are willing to teach tax to the right person. The Office Administrator will own the daily movement of information and work through the practice, including document intake, mail and scanning, portal administration, engagement and e-file tracking, return delivery, billing, collections, payments, vendor coordination, and procedure documentation. The role also includes preparation of simple individual tax returns after training. Because payroll, benefits administration, onboarding support, and routine HR administration are largely outsourced, this position can focus on true practice operations, client workflows, and tax work.

WHAT YOU WILL OWN

Client document intake and routing across mail, secure portals, electronic delivery, and in-person drop-off Scanning, file naming, document organization, portal access, e-signatures, return delivery, and filing records Billing preparation, accounts-receivable follow-up, payment and deposit records, and routine client-process communications Office supplies, routine purchasing, vendor follow-up, records retention, and practical day-to-day office coordination Procedure documentation, workflow improvement, software implementation, and participation in technology decisions

TAX AND ACCOUNTING WORK

Prepare tax organizers and organize source documents for individual income tax returns Prepare simple Forms 1040 after training and under appropriate review Support extensions, e-file assembly, authorizations, and acceptance monitoring Prepare Forms 1099 when assigned Use bookkeeping or general accounting knowledge to understand how financial information fits together, with potential to expand into more-complex returns

WHO WILL THRIVE HERE

You are genuinely and demonstrably organized. You create systems, use checklists and trackers, notice missing information, and do not rely on memory alone. You have enough professional experience to exercise judgment, communicate confidently, and take ownership without step-by-step direction. You enjoy improving processes but are equally willing to handle mail, scanning, filing, client follow-up, and other hands-on work. You care about clients, learn unfamiliar software and technical work readily, and ask thoughtful questions when you do not know something. You want a role that can grow with a small practice rather than a narrowly defined production-only position.

REQUIRED QUALIFICATIONS

At least three years of increasingly responsible experience in office operations, professional-services administration, bookkeeping or accounting support, client-service operations, or a similarly deadline-driven environment A track record of owning recurring processes, deadlines, documents, and follow-up Exceptional organization, attention to detail, professional maturity, discretion, and follow-through Strong written and verbal communication and comfort working directly with clients, owners, coworkers, and vendors Strong proficiency with Microsoft 365, spreadsheets, PDF tools, and electronic document systems; ability to learn new technology quickly Ability to work in person in Greenwood Village, reliable transportation for occasional local errands, and comfort handling confidential information and hands-on administrative work

ESPECIALLY VALUABLE EXPERIENCE

Five or more years of relevant professional experience Work in a tax, accounting, legal, financial-services, or other professional-services environment Bookkeeping, reconciliations, invoicing, accounts receivable, cash receipts, or general accounting support Individual tax-return preparation, tax-production workflow, or Forms 1041, 1065, or 1099 experience Experience with CCH Axcess, QuickBooks, secure portals, e-signatures, scanning, document management, workflow systems, or procedure writing A bachelor's degree is welcome but not required. Directly relevant experience, judgment, and operational ownership matter more than a particular degree.

SCHEDULE

This is a regular full-time position with a consistent schedule of 30 hours per week. Because benefit eligibility depends on maintaining this schedule, 30 hours must be a firm weekly commitment. Hours may be arranged over four or five weekdays within normal office hours of 8:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. Monday availability is strongly preferred. Additional tax-season hours may be available but are not routinely required. This is an in-person role. Limited remote work may occasionally be approved for suitable tasks.

COMPENSATION AND BENEFITS

Hourly pay: $30.00-$35.00 per hour, depending on directly relevant experience, operational capability, and tax or accounting background. The position is nonexempt, and overtime or other legally required premiums will be paid in accordance with applicable law.

Benefits include:

Flexible paid vacation, subject to advance approval, business needs, and reasonable use Paid practice holidays when they fall on a regularly scheduled workday A separately tracked bank of 48 hours of paid sick and safe leave each year Employer-paid, approved continuing education and professional development Annual incentive bonus eligibility 401(k) retirement plan, including employer matching contributions, subject to plan eligibility and terms 100% of employee-only premiums for medical, dental, vision, basic life/AD&D, and long-term disability coverage, subject to final plan terms and eligibility Dependent coverage may be elected at the employee's expense; the practice does not expect to contribute toward spouse or dependent premiums Coverage is expected to begin on the first day of the month following the date of hire, subject to final plan terms and enrollment requirements Additional voluntary benefits may be available at the employee's expense
