Staff Tax Accountant

Doug J. Murstein, CPA, & Associates is a boutique accounting firm specializing in accounting services, tax return preparation, and related consulting for individuals and small businesses. We strive to provide the highest level of expertise while maintaining top-notch customer service.

In our small office setting, we all pitch in. We provide the infrastructure for our staff to grow and apply their academic discipline in a real-world setting. We work hard during tax season and provide a great work/life balance by offering unparalleled vacation and comp time.

On top of two weeks standard vacation time, staff earn additional time off based on hours worked during tax season. In some years, additional time off has exceeded 6 to 8 weeks. Annual bonuses are based on individual and firm performance

We are looking to hire an accountant or an aspiring account who has or will soon obtain a Bachelor’s in accounting, mathematics, or a related field. Prior experience in taxation is not required as long as you are a motivated, hard working individual, and have an interest in taxation and a relevant academic foundation.
