Job description

Tax Senior or Staff Accountant

Location: Milwaukee, WI (Hybrid)

Posted by: Recruiting Firm Partnering With a Long-Standing CPA Practice

Are you looking for a place where you can actually grow, be mentored, and feel valued in your early career? I am working with a Milwaukee based CPA firm that has been around for eighty years and continues to thrive because they invest in their people and build deep, long-term client relationships. This is a forty person practice that offers the kind of stability, learning, and leadership access that is hard to find in public accounting.

If you want a mix of interesting work, real client interaction, and a team that will support your development, this is a great opportunity.

What Makes This Firm Stand Out

• They have a strong reputation in nonprofit and employee benefit plan work, along with a diverse mix of business, real estate, manufacturing, and high-net-worth clients.
• Their culture is known for being collaborative, approachable, and focused on helping early career professionals build real skills.
• Leadership is active and present, and they have clear succession planning in place. If you are someone who wants to grow, they want to hear from you.
• Client relationships run three and four generations deep. You are joining a firm that truly matters to the community it serves.

What You Will Work On

• Business, individual, trust, estate, and nonprofit tax returns
• Direct client communication and relationship support
• Opportunities to explore nonprofit and employee benefit plan work
• Occasional involvement with outsourced accounting services
• Projects that help you build both technical skills and confidence

Who Will Succeed Here

• One to three plus years of public accounting tax experience
• Comfortable preparing business returns and confident with individual returns
• Interested in real estate, rental, manufacturing, or professional services clients
• Someone who enjoys learning, wants mentorship, and likes being hands-on
• Familiar with CCH Axcess or open to learning it
• Working toward the CPA or already licensed

The Details

• Competitive base salary based on experience
• Eight percent profit sharing
• Hybrid schedule; typically three to four days in office
• Parking reimbursement available
• A team that supports each other and creates a long-term home for their people

Why People Love Working Here

You are not just preparing returns. You are learning directly from experienced partners, building meaningful client relationships, and becoming part of a firm that cares about your future. If you want to grow into a strong, well-rounded tax professional with real upward potential, this environment will help you get there.
