Senior Tax Accountant - Washington, IA
Ever wake up and think about a job that you would look forward to showing up to? AllenMitchell might just be the place for you. We focus on our core values (Service, People, and Integrity) but we strive to create a fun work environment where our employees feel at home. We want our employees to have lives outside of the office because we know that a full life outside of our doors leads to success inside our doors.
We are one of the fastest growing CPA firms in the state of Iowa and will have an unlimited potential for growth for a CPA looking to build a client base. Some of the perks we provide include paid Friday afternoons off from Memorial Day to Labor Day, business -very- casual dress attire (say goodbye to suits and dress pants, its jean day every day), and flexible scheduling for professional staff.

A senior staff (tax) accountant with at least five (5) years of tax preparation or public accounting experience. Self-motivated, communicator, with an undeniable work ethic and desire to grow. An individual who puts family ahead of work and wants to have fun in the workplace. Great people skills, ability to learn on your feet, and a drive to succeed will take you as far as you want to go with our firm!
Are you qualified?
Successful candidates require a bachelor's degree in accounting. CPA certificate preferred, or must be a candidate for the CPA exam. At least five years of previous experience in the public accounting realm, managing a client base, and tax preparation or audit preferred. Quick Books and/or ProSystems (Axcess Tax) experience a plus. Compensation is competitive and will be commensurate with experience & education.
What will you be doing?
Employee will be expected to prepare personal, partnership and corporate tax returns, gather data from clients and organize data for preparation. Need to be able to analyze information provided by client to determine if additional information is required. Candidate will be meeting with tax clients to gather tax information, ask questions and answer client’s questions regarding various tax topics. Daily duties will also include tax research, assisting with bookkeeping and payroll (primarily in QuickBooks) as needed, and preparation of compiled and reviewed financial statements. We are at full capacity, so new hire will be growing their client base relatively quickly as we bring on more new clients. Will have open door access to partners and other CPAs in the firm.
What benefits are offered?
Other firms claim to offer a work life balance but require tax season work hours for employees that make that impossible. Both of AllenMitchell’s founders were fed up with being expected to sacrifice time with their family, for the benefit of their employers. While we know that there will be weeks of long hours during tax season – we put your time in your hands. We are flexible so that you can take time off when you need to in order to put family first, or just take time for yourself! Employees who decide to put in the extra hours – WILL be rewarded for it. AllenMitchell was founded on the idea that we can provide top notch service, affordable to our clients, without sacrificing our employee’s personal life in the process.
