About The Position

The best tax professionals don't simply follow a process. They ask questions, look beyond the obvious, they advise, and help clients navigate complex challenges with confidence. At Clark Schaefer Hackett, you'll build a strong technical foundation while developing the critical thinking, communication, and relationship-building skills that support a successful tax career.

As a Top 65 CPA & Advisory Firm, we've built an outstanding reputation by helping clients solve complex business challenges while creating an environment where talented professionals can grow and thrive. Just as importantly, we believe long-term success is only possible when talented people can also be successful outside of work.

We work hard to create a culture where professionals can build exceptional careers without feeling like they have to sacrifice the rest of their lives to do it.

At CSH, you'll work alongside experienced tax professionals, gain exposure to a diverse client base, and continue developing the technical and professional skills that will support your long-term career growth.
