" You review completed returns across all major entity types, catch what others miss, and own the accuracy of every return that goes out the door.ABOUT THE ROLE
You'll serve as the final checkpoint in the tax workflow — the reviewer of record.
Preparers hand off completed ****s, ****s, ****-S, and ****s; you make sure they're right before they're filed.
You'll spot calculation errors, missed elections, and documentation gaps, then coordinate with the preparer to get them resolved.This is a higher-accountability role than preparation, and the compensation reflects it.
You'll communicate directly with clients — but strictly to clarify questions about the return itself.
No advisory services.
No planning conversations.
Just clean, accurate returns and clear answers about what's on them.You'll work in Drake and a proprietary internal platform (training provided), partner with U. S.
-based teams on technical questions, and help raise the quality bar across the workflow.The Ideal CandidateYou're the person other reviewers double-check their work againstYou can spot a missing K-1 footnote, a wrong basis calculation, or a miscoded depreciation method on the first passYou stay in your lane on client calls — you answer what's on the return, not what could beYou're comfortable being the last name on the fileYou believe a clean review note saves three rounds of reworkWHAT YOU'LL OWN
