• 5+ years of public accounting tax experience.
• Strong technical knowledge of individual, business, and partnership taxation.
• Excellent communication and relationship-building skills.
• Entrepreneurial mindset with a genuine interest in helping grow a business.
• Proven ability to manage multiple priorities while maintaining a high level of client service.
• Self-motivated, collaborative, and comfortable working independently.
