- Full-time Jam CPA+ is looking for an experienced tax professional to serve as a technical reviewer and quality-control leader for our growing tax practice.
This role is ideal for someone who enjoys complex tax work, issue spotting, reviewing returns, mentoring staff, and improving firmwide tax quality. We are a growing CPA firm based in West Chester, PA, focused on proactive tax planning, business advisory, outsourced CFO/controller services, and high-quality tax compliance for business owners, real estate investors, nonprofits, and high-income individuals. The right person will help us ensure that tax returns are accurate, technically sound, well-documented, and consistent with firm standards. Primary Responsibilities Reviewing federal and state tax returns for individuals, S corporations, partnerships, C corporations, trusts, and nonprofits. Identifying technical issues, planning opportunities, missing information, basis issues, depreciation issues, state tax issues, shareholder/partner basis concerns, reasonable compensation concerns, and other return-level risks. Providing clear review notes to preparers and helping staff understand the "why" behind comments. Serving as a technical resource for the team on complex tax questions. Helping improve firmwide review standards, tax workpaper expectations, and return-quality checklists. Reviewing tax planning calculations, projections, estimates, and entity-structure considerations. Assisting with technical tax research and documentation when needed. Helping improve tax workflows, templates, and internal review processes. Working directly with firm leadership on complex client matters. Ensuring returns are technically correct, professionally presented, and ready for partner/final review.

Strong technical judgment and the ability to spot issues before they become problems. Comfort working directly with partners, managers, preparers, and of course, clients. A practical, business-owner-focused approach to tax. Strong written communication skills. A desire to improve systems, not just review returns in isolation.
