We are on a mission to change the accounting industry by creating the premier people-first firm where strong and talented team members will thrive. We are innovators of tax services and firm culture with work-life integration. We accomplish this by using the best technology and automation on the market, offering unlimited vacation and sick days, fostering an autonomous work environment, providing ongoing training, and offering health insurance and 401(k) matching.

As a Senior Tax Advisor at our firm, you will primarily be involved in tax planning and advisory services for real estate investors and small business owners.
