About The Position

We have an immediate opening for a Property Tax Consultant to support both our property tax consulting practice and our growing incentive and abatement work with counties, school districts, and corporate clients. This is a relationship-forward role where professionalism, trust, and genuine people skills matter just as much as technical knowledge.

Requirements

• Bachelor's degree in Business, Finance, Real Estate, Public Administration, or a related field.
• Strong communication and public speaking skills — you're comfortable in a room with elected officials, clients, or county appraisers and can represent our work clearly and professionally.
• Genuine relationship-building ability — you're the kind of person who earns trust over time and enjoys working with diverse stakeholders.
• Solid Excel skills; comfort working with financial data, building summaries, and organizing information clearly.
• Organized, detail-oriented, and dependable — clients and teammates can count on you to follow through.
• Comfortable with travel for meetings, hearings, and site visits.
• A collaborative, professional mindset — you approach situations with curiosity and a willingness to learn, not with a combative or aggressive posture.

Nice To Haves

• Some background in property tax, real estate valuation, appraisal, government relations, or economic development is preferred — but we're open to candidates who are eager to learn and develop in the field.

Responsibilities

• Lead client engagements across our incentive/abatement and property tax consulting practices.
• Build and maintain relationships with county officials, school district representatives, appraisal districts, and clients throughout the incentive and abatement process.
• Assist in preparing abatement applications, incentive proposals, and supporting documentation for client projects.
• Represent clients and the firm in meetings with local taxing authorities, hearings, and public forums — presenting professionally and advocating effectively.
• Perform financial analysis using Excel to support valuation positions and incentive modeling, including tax savings projections and investment impact summaries.
• Track deadlines, manage deliverables, and coordinate across client accounts and internal team members with consistent responsiveness.
• Travel as needed for client meetings, hearings, site visits, and engagements with local government entities.
• Support property tax engagements for a portfolio of commercial and industrial clients, including data gathering, valuation analysis, and appeal preparation.
