I'm working with a specialist international tax firm looking to appoint an experienced US Tax Return Signer on a fully remote contractor basis.
This opportunity is ideal for someone who enjoys reviewing returns rather than managing client relationships. Returns are prepared by an experienced team before reaching you for final technical review and signing.
The initial requirement is approximately 50 - 100 US tax returns between now and the end of the year, with similar volumes expected during the next filing season. The role will initially be offered as a fixed-term contract, with the potential to move into a longer-term contract or permanent position.
