Fishkill, NY Full Time
POSTED ON 8/23/2026
AVAILABLE BEFORE 9/20/2026

This is a unique, ground-floor opportunity for a Senior Tax Accountant who wants more than just a job preparing returns - the firm is looking for someone who wants to build toward leading the Fishkill office over the next several years. You'll start hands-on in tax preparation and grow into a leadership role as the office expands.


What You'll Do

  • Prepare individual, trust, and business tax returns
  • Handle day-to-day tax compliance work for a growing client base
  • Build strong client relationships and become a trusted point of contact
  • Work closely with firm leadership to learn the operational and client-management side of running an office
  • Take on increasing responsibility over time, with a path toward leading the Fishkill office


What We're Looking For

  • 3–4 years of tax preparation experience
  • CPA candidate or EA (in progress or completed) strongly preferred
  • Strong technical tax prep skills and attention to detail
  • Motivated to grow into a leadership/office-lead position — this is not a "stay in your lane" role
  • Comfortable working in-office 5 days/week in Fishkill, NY


Why This Role

  • A defined growth path to lead the office within (~5 years) rare for a role at this level
  • Direct exposure to firm leadership and client relationships early in your career
  • Work within a firm that integrates tax with investment and financial planning, broadening your skill set beyond pure compliance
  • Competitive base salary benefits


Salary : $75,000 - $90,000
