REMOTE TAX ACCOUNTANT

LedgerGurus is looking to hire a part-time Tax Accountant for our accounting team! Do you have strong tax experience, but don't want the stress of tax season? Do you enjoy working with a variety of clients in diverse industries? Are you looking for an opportunity to work part-time from home with a very flexible schedule?

This part-time tax position earns a wage of $40-$48/hour.  We need an experienced accountant to come in and build out our pre-existing income tax service.  The schedule will require 40 hours a week from January to May, but then only 15 hours a week for the rest of the year.

Our part-time employees can also accrue PTO to use for whatever they choose! If this sounds like the right opportunity for you, apply today!
