Tax Preparer at Distinct Recruitment in Fort Myers, FL

Some people actually enjoy preparing tax returns. It's everything else that gets on their nerves.

The constant checking in. The pressure to account for every minute. The feeling that you're being judged on how busy you look rather than the quality of your work.

This Fort Myers CPA firm takes a different approach.

With around 25 people and low staff turnover, they've built an environment where experienced accountants are trusted to get on with their jobs. The Partners aren't interested in micromanaging you or making every conversation about billable hours.

They want good people who take pride in their work.

The role focuses primarily on business taxation, particularly S Corporation and Partnership returns, alongside some individual tax work. You'll get exposure to clients with varying levels of complexity, with opportunities to develop your skills and take on more responsibility over time.

A few things worth knowing:

• $70k+ salary, depending on experience
• Flexible working hours, with the option of one day from home
• Generally 55 billable hours during peak tax season, occasionally reaching 60
• Office closed between Christmas and New Year
• 3% Safe Harbor 401(k)
• Health insurance with a substantial employer contribution
• CCH Axcess software
• A stable, growing team with opportunities to progress

You'll need experience preparing business tax returns within a US CPA firm, particularly Forms 1120S and 1065.

If you enjoy the technical side of tax but could do without someone constantly looking over your shoulder, this might be a nice change.

Happy to have a confidential chat and tell you more. No pressure, no lengthy application process just to ask a few questions.
