Senior Tax Associate/Supervisor – Coral Springs, FL

 

 

 

Tired of the large public accounting firm?  Are you looking for a wonderful opportunity to use the breadth of your accounting skills with a smaller, growing local firm?  If you answered yes, we want to hear from you!  Forrest Robinson, PLLC, an established CPA firm based in Coral Springs, is seeking a Senior Tax Associate and Tax Supervisor to join our professional team, someone who truly wants a long term career opportunity with a respected firm devoted to providing you with the professional development necessary to help guide your success.  But wait, there’s more….!

Why Forrest Robinson?

We help our clients plan, save and invest.  We began by offering tax preparation and tax planning services and then added services from investment and insurance to comprehensive wealth planning all under one roof.  For more than a decade, we have been intentional about creating long-term relationships with our clients and their families. We want to be our clients’ first call for everything, whether it is developing a tax strategy or helping them with a personal issue beyond the scope of wealth management. This approach provides our clients with a unique experience where they receive advice from us that incorporates every aspect of their lives so they can remain focused on what matters most.

Our culture:

Work/Life Balance:

As a small, family operated firm, we truly understand there is life outside of work.  Yes, there is such a thing as work/life balance and you will find it with us.   Unlike the grueling hours of a large firm, we work a maximum of 55 hours a week during tax season. If you need to take care of a family matter, no problem – we trust you to get your work done.  While this position is not remote, we are flexible with some hybrid work.

We are a team:

Our team of 10 is small, but mighty, and everyone steps up.  If one person is struggling, we are all struggling and we will divide up the work.  Everyone is part of the team and we are excited to hear fresh perspectives and new ideas.

Opportunities for growth:

We are looking for people who want to find a home and make their career with Forrest Robinson.   There are no politics and no glass ceiling here.  We offer opportunities for you to learn about the other services we offer such as wealth management or insurance products.  It is up to you to determine the type of growth you want!

We are very interactive with our clients – and you will have ongoing client interaction unlike other firms.  We provide superior client service through our collaborative and personalized approach and pride ourselves on the quality of our client relationships that goes beyond tax season.
