Senior Tax Accountant

Job Description

Real talk before you scroll further: this role runs on 1120-S and 1065 returns. If that phrase just made your eye twitch in a good way, you are exactly who we want. If it made your eye twitch in a "what even is that" way, this romance was never meant to be. No hard feelings, just save us both a swipe left.

Who We Are
Twenty-five-plus years in and we still refuse to run this place like a tax factory that treats humans like ticket numbers. We are a tight-knit Las Vegas CPA firm where we actually know our clients' names, their businesses, and their tax season anxiety, and we do something about all three. Accuracy. Integrity. Personal service. It is not a mug slogan; it is just Tuesday for us.We are growing, and we need someone who matches that energy instead of coasting on autopilot.

Why This Role Is Different
If you want the technical depth and career development of public accounting without the extreme hours, relentless grind, and soul-crushing busy seasons that come with larger firms, this is your place. We run a tight, high-quality shop where you will do genuinely interesting work, grow beyond compliance into planning and strategy, and still have a life outside of tax season. No sales quotas. No pressure to bring in clients. Just good work done well.

The RoleFull-time, year-round, in-office position with a reasonable tax season workload and a clear advancement path to Tax Manager. You will work directly with the firm owner, gaining exposure to complex returns and strategic tax planning that most compliance-only roles never offer.Schedule: Monday to Friday, business hours only. We do not do 2 a.m. tax emergencies here.

What You Will Actually Be Doing
Preparing and reviewing a comprehensive range of returns including individual, business, trust, estate, and exempt organization filings with full ownership of accuracy and compliance across all entity types. Providing strategic tax planning guidance to clients across entity types, not just crunching numbers after the fact. Wrangling client documents into something organized and audit-ready, not just technically in a folder somewhere. Hunting deductions and credits with the instincts of someone who has done this long enough to know exactly where to look. Serving as a trusted point of contact for clients, communicating clearly, warmly, and on time. Staying current on evolving federal and state tax law and applying it proactively. Growing into tax planning and strategy alongside firm leadership.

Deep practical command of tax code across individual and business entities, not surface-level familiarity
CPA or EA preferred; candidates with strong Tax and Accounting experience who can independently handle business and individual returns will absolutely be considered
Active PTIN required
Proficiency in professional tax software; UltraTax is our love language but Drake, ProSeries, or similar is welcome
Demonstrated ability to advise clients and lead conversations with authority and warmth
Detail obsession at a borderline unhealthy level because the IRS does not grade on a curve
Full ownership of deadlines with no hand-holding required
Commitment to showing up on time, in person at our Las Vegas office
