This individual will play a pivotal role in ensuring the business aligns with our vision of helping high-income earners navigate complex tax landscapes and build sustainable wealth. The CPA will be responsible for due diligence during the acquisition process, managing CPA-related activities post-acquisition, and upholding the firm’s reputation for delivering tailored, impactful solutions.

Key Responsibilities:

Transition Phase:

  • Assume responsibility for managing the CPA-related aspects of the business post-acquisition.
  • Develop a comprehensive plan to ensure compliance and continuity during the handover period.
  • Maintain direct interaction with key clients to ensure retention and satisfaction.

Post-Acquisition Role:

  • Oversee all technical CPA duties, including tax filings, compliance, audits, and correspondence with tax authorities.
  • Supervise accounting staff and manage operations related to CPA activities.
  • Provide financial reports and monitor key performance indicators (KPIs) to track business performance.
  • Assist in strategic planning and scaling the business, potentially aiding future acquisitions.

Vision-Driven Client Engagement:

  • Help clients understand how tax strategies and financial planning can create generational wealth.
  • Lead by example, demonstrating the company’s commitment to proactive solutions that redefine wealth creation for high-income professionals.

Qualifications:

  • Active CPA license in good standing.
  • Expertise in tax preparation, QuickBooks, and strategic tax planning.
  • Strong interpersonal skills with a track record of building trust with clients.
  • Experience in due diligence and evaluating small firm acquisitions preferred.
  • Leadership experience.
  • Ability to align with the company’s mission of helping clients achieve financial independence and legacy-building wealth.

Employment Terms:

  • Part-Time During Acquisition: Focus on due diligence and acquisition-related tasks.
  • Full-Time Post-Acquisition: Transition to overseeing CPA operations and client engagement.
  • Compensation: Competitive salary with potential performance-based bonuses.
  • Location: Must be based in the DFW Area.
