About The Position

We're hiring a Staff Tax Accountant to join our tax team. You'll prepare and review returns, stay on top of every outstanding item, and work directly with clients, with leadership right there backing you up on final review. This isn't a "just get it filed" seat. Our clients come to us for real tax strategy, and you'll be a big part of delivering it. At Right Choice, we work hard and we play hard. We take our clients' numbers seriously, just not ourselves. Expect a team that celebrates wins, laughs a lot, and has each other's backs, especially in the thick of tax season. Right Choice Accounting Solutions helps practices, agencies, and firms maximize their profits while saving A LOT in taxes. We're a full-service accounting and tax firm built for business owners who are done piecing together bookkeeping, payroll, and tax help and are ready for a team that can take their entire accounting function to the next level. Our clients come to us as the upgrade they didn't know they needed. We're the team that makes their numbers make sense, keeps them on track, and builds the strategies that actually move the needle as they scale. We specialize in Client Advisory Services (CAS), monthly financial reporting, bookkeeping, tax strategy, tax preparation, and payroll support. As a one-stop shop, we deliver results without the stiff, corporate vibe. Our clients trust us because we make accounting approachable, effective, and dare we say, actually enjoyable to talk about. Proudly family-owned and CPA-led, we're not just about the numbers. We're about the people behind them. Recently featured in Forbes as "Top CPAs in Georgia," recognized as Best in County in Gwinnett multiple years in a row, and named among the Top 20 business alumni from the university where our leaders met, we're just getting started. The Staff Tax Accountant owns tax preparation and the follow-through that keeps every return moving. You'll prepare and review individual and business returns, leave them ready for a final review, and work directly with clients to stay on top of everything outstanding. Year-round, you'll also handle quarterly tax management, ongoing tax planning, and tax-specific monthly reporting.
