  • Help maintain tax documentation and records across partnerships, corporations, and other investment entities.
  • Assist with data gathering, validation, and organization for tax reporting and compliance projects.
  • Support ongoing file cleanup, data organization, and process improvement initiatives.

    • Team Coordination & Operational Support

  • Work closely with tax team members to support day-to-day operational needs and longer-term projects.
  • Provide regular status updates on assigned responsibilities, outstanding items, and project progress.
  • Assist with tracking recurring deliverables and maintaining organized tax records.
  • Communicate proactively with team members to resolve questions and ensure timely completion of assignments.
  • Take on additional tax preparation and reporting responsibilities as technical knowledge and experience develop.

  • 1–2 years of accounting, tax, or related experience preferred; entry-level candidates will also be considered.
  • General understanding of basic accounting principles and financial information.
  • Familiarity with tax entity structures, including partnerships and corporations, preferred.
  • Basic knowledge of K-1s, tax forms, and tax documentation is helpful but not required.
  • Proficiency in Microsoft Excel and comfort working with spreadsheets, databases, and financial records.
  • Strong organizational skills and attention to detail, with the ability to manage recurring responsibilities and longer-term projects.
  • Ability to work independently, prioritize tasks, and consistently meet deadlines.
