A Tax Career With a Schedule That's Hard to Find If you enjoy working in tax but don't want the typical year round schedule that comes with it, Calvary Tax Service offers something pretty unique. We work hard during tax season and put in the hours needed to take care of our clients. After April 15, our workload drops significantly and our office typically operates only two days per week through the end of the year. You get the opportunity to build a long term career in tax while having significantly more time outside of work for most of the year. About Calvary Calvary Tax Service is a growing tax firm in Glendora, founded in 1976, with a small, close knit team. We have a family type atmosphere, enjoy joking around and having fun at work, but we're also very busy during tax season and take great care of our clients. This is an important position within our firm. You'll work closely with the owner throughout most aspects of the tax process and become someone we rely on to help keep client work organized, accurate and moving forward. We're looking for someone who wants a career and a place they can grow, not just another job for the next tax season.

After April 15, things change considerably. Our office typically returns to approximately two days per week for most of the remainder of the year. We think it's a great balance. We work hard when our clients need us most and enjoy a much lighter schedule when tax season is over.
