[Hiring] SALT Tax Senior @Levelociti

Role Description

We are hiring a SALT Tax Senior to join a growing state and local tax practice — sophisticated advisory work, a varied client base, and a clear path to Manager and beyond for the right person.

• No Extension Season Grind — SALT work operates on a fundamentally different calendar than federal tax. The compliance-heavy spring crunch that defines most public accounting roles does not define this one. The work is more evenly distributed, more advisory in nature, and more sustainable year-round.
• Year-Round Advisory Work — Nexus studies, audit defense, controversy, voluntary disclosure, and multi-state compliance strategy. Intellectually engaging work that will develop your career faster than a traditional tax compliance seat.
• Clear Path to Manager — The firm promotes from within and invests in developing the people around them. If Manager and eventually Partner is your goal, the runway is there.
• Independent — No PE, Ever — Independently owned since the 1950s and no plans to change that. The culture, the client relationships, and the stability here are protected.
• Firm-Wide Summer Break — The entire firm shuts down for a full week in the summer — paid, firm-wide, every year. On top of that, Flex Fridays in both summer and winter.
• Generous Time Off — 20+ days PTO plus 13 paid holidays.
• Big 4 DNA, Regional Culture — A significant portion of our team came here from Big 4 environments. The technical rigor is there. The burnout culture is not.
• Manageable Hours — Busy season hours run well below what you would experience at a top 10 firm.

Qualifications

• CPA preferred or actively pursuing.
• 3–5+ years of SALT experience at a public accounting firm.
• Solid technical foundation across multi-state income tax, sales and use tax, nexus, and apportionment.
• Audit defense and controversy exposure a plus.
• Industry experience across construction, manufacturing, professional services, private equity, or real estate a plus.
• Detail-oriented, self-directed, and comfortable working fully remote.

Requirements

• Support state and local tax engagements across a diverse middle market client base.
• Assist with nexus studies, apportionment analysis, and multi-state compliance matters.
• Support voluntary disclosure agreements, state audit defense, and controversy matters.
• Research complex SALT issues and communicate findings clearly to Managers and Partners.
• Prepare state and local tax returns across multiple entity types.
• Develop your technical skill set under the direct mentorship of experienced SALT professionals.
• Collaborate with federal tax and advisory teams on comprehensive client engagements.

Benefits

• Base salary up to $120,000, commensurate with experience.
• Performance bonus.
• Full week paid summer break — firm-wide, every year.
• Flex Fridays — summer and winter.
• 20+ days PTO + 13 paid holidays.
• Generous paid parental leave and family care leave.
• Volunteer time off.
• Medical, dental, and vision coverage.
• 401(k) with employer contribution.
• Professional development and CPE fully supported.
• Clear path to Manager and Partner track.
