Tax Associate

Job Description Tax Associate North Dallas, TX, near Richardson $70,000 to $80,000 If you want a Tax Associate role where your experience can build quickly, this is worth a look Some early career tax roles can feel too narrow. You prepare the work, keep your head down, and before long you realise you are learning, but not always in the way that really moves you forward. The client exposure is limited. The variety is patchy. And the more interesting work still feels a long way off. This independent CPA firm in North Dallas, not far from Richardson, is growing in the right way. The client base is broad, varied, and still building, which means this is a role where you can get exposure to a good mix of work and keep developing at a healthy pace. For the right person, that matters. In a growing firm like this, you are not just there to process returns and move on. You are part of a team that is building something, which creates more visibility, more opportunity to get involved, and more room to grow as your confidence and experience develop. It is also a smart time to make a move like this. Joining a new firm over the summer gives you the chance to get settled properly, build relationships with the team and clients, and head into the fall deadlines from a much stronger position. Why this role stands out A growing independent CPA firm with a broad and varied client base A good mix of work across individuals and businesses The chance to build your experience in a firm where growth creates opportunity A smaller team environment where your contribution is visible A strong platform for someone who wants to keep developing in public accounting What you'll be doing Preparing federal and state tax returns across a range of individual and business clients Supporting work across 1040, 1065, 1120, and 1120S returns Working with Seniors, Managers, and Partners on client assignments Researching tax issues and supporting more complex work as your experience builds Communicating with clients to gather information and keep work moving Helping maintain quality and consistency across deadlines and deliverables What they are looking for Public accounting tax experience at Associate level Exposure to both individual and business tax work Someone who wants to learn, improve, and keep building their career in a growing firm Comfortable asking questions, getting involved, and working as part of a team A practical, detail focused approach and good communication skills CPA track would be a plus, but not essential If you are looking for a Tax Associate role where the client base is varied, the firm is growing, and your experience can build in the right direction, this is well worth a conversation.
