Why This Is a Great Opportunity

  • Own meaningful client relationships and serve as a trusted tax advisor, not just a compliance resource.
  • Work directly with accessible senior leaders and partners in a collaborative, open-door environment.
  • Lead complex tax engagements for closely held businesses, pass-through entities, and high net worth individuals.
  • Mentor and develop talented tax professionals while building your own leadership capabilities.
  • Join an automation-forward practice that embraces technology to improve quality, efficiency, and client service.
  • Gain exposure to tax planning, advisory work, engagement profitability, and business development.
  • Clear advancement path toward Senior Manager, Director, and Partner for high performers.

Location: Torrance, CA. We prefer an in-office presence because collaboration and client service are central to our culture, but hybrid flexibility may be considered for strong candidates.

Note: Candidates must have 5+ years of public accounting tax experience, including 2+ years at the Senior level or equivalent, and must hold an active CPA or EA license. We are looking for someone who can independently manage complex engagements and contribute immediately.

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
