TaxSeniorHartfordCounty,CT(Hybrid)|Salary:$90,000-$110,000+Bonus|Full-Time
CompanyOverview
This is a great opportunity to join a respected, mid sized public accounting firm in the Hartford County, CT area. The firm has built its reputation on developing long-term careers instead of cycling through staff, and it deliberately keeps its culture close-knit and flexible rather than modeling itself after a large national practice. People who thrive here tend to want a smaller, more personal environment where real relationships with partners and colleagues are the norm, along with a genuine commitment to work-life balance once the spring rush winds down.
JobSummary
The firm is adding a Tax Senior to its growing tax practice. In this role, you'll prepare and review a wide range of tax returns, sharpen your technical skills, and gain exposure to partners, managers, and staff across the department rather than being locked into one narrow team. It's a strong next step for someone who wants to keep growing technically while taking on more ownership.
