About The Position

We're looking for an experienced Tax Supervisor to join our growing accounting firm.

With offices in Bryan, Navasota, and Madisonville, Texas, you'll have the opportunity to choose the location that best fits your commute and lifestyle while remaining part of one collaborative firm. At our firm, we're more than accountants—we're trusted advisors and partners to our clients. We foster a culture that balances professional excellence with flexibility, career growth with personal wellbeing, and high standards with a supportive, family-friendly environment. As the profession continues to evolve, we embrace technology and encourage every team member to continuously develop their technical skills while confidently adopting new software and AI-powered tools that enhance efficiency and client service.

You’ll also play an active role in tax planning, research, advisory discussions, process improvement, and staff development.
