Job Details
Job Description: Springborn Staffing is partnering with a well-established boutique CPA firm in the Greater Portland area to hire a Senior Tax Accountant. This is an opportunity to join a close-knit team that provides personalized tax services to individuals and small businesses throughout Maine.
Unlike many public accounting firms, our client emphasizes sustainable workloads, flexibility, and long-term employee retention. They value excellence and client service, but they don't believe success should come at the expense of work-life balance.
If you're looking for a role where you can continue growing your tax expertise while working directly with clients and firm leadership, we'd love to connect.
Compensation & Benefits
Pay: $70,000 - $80,000 annually, based on experience.
Bonus Opportunity: Annual discretionary bonus.
Retirement: 401(k) with a 3% employer match.
Insurance: Health insurance benefits available.
Paid Time Off: Two weeks of guaranteed paid vacation annually, plus bank overtime worked during tax season and use it as paid time off throughout the year.
Work-Life Balance: No minimum billable hour requirements.
Flexibility: Hybrid work schedule and additional flexibility outside of tax season.
Professional Growth: Direct access to firm leadership and opportunities to expand technical tax expertise.
Schedule
Full-time, permanent position.
Monday through Friday, typically 8:00 AM to 4:30 PM.
Hybrid work arrangement available.
What We're Looking For
3 years of public accounting tax experience.
Bachelor's degree in Accounting or a related field.
Experience preparing federal and state tax returns for individuals (small business experience is a plus)
Strong understanding of tax compliance and tax research.
Excellent attention to detail and organizational skills.
Strong written and verbal communication abilities.
Ability to work independently while contributing to a collaborative team environment.
Proficiency with tax preparation software and Microsoft Office.
Preferred Qualifications
CPA license or CPA candidate.
Experience with CCH Axcess or similar tax software.
Why This Opportunity Stands Out
Boutique CPA firm with an established reputation and loyal client base.
Direct client interaction and meaningful advisory work.
Greater variety and ownership than many larger firms.
Leadership team that values quality work, flexibility, and employee well-being.
Opportunity to build your career without sacrificing work-life balance.
If you're an experienced tax professional looking to join a respected local CPA firm where your expertise is valued and your personal life is respected, we want to hear from you.
