Entry Level Accounting and Tax Manager Jobs: Frequently Asked Questions
How do I get an entry level accounting and tax manager job?
Start by building a foundation in tax software tools like QuickBooks or Drake and accounting principles covered in your degree or coursework. Employers hiring at the entry level often look for candidates who have completed tax-season internships, relevant coursework in federal and state taxation, or have passed parts of the CPA exam. Tailoring your resume to show any hands-on client or filing experience, even from academic clinics or volunteer tax programs like VITA, gives you a clear edge over candidates with purely theoretical backgrounds.
Which companies hire entry level accounting and tax managers?
Companies hiring entry level accounting and tax managers right now include Jobot, Encompass Health, and FIS, based on current listings on Migrate Mate as of November 2026. At this level, hiring tends to come from regional accounting firms, mid-size corporations building out their finance teams, and professional services companies that onboard junior staff and train them through structured programs.
Are there remote entry level accounting and tax manager jobs?
Yes, though remote openings are less common at the entry level than for more experienced roles. About 22% of entry level accounting and tax manager openings are remote or hybrid as of November 2026, with hybrid arrangements being more typical as employers often prefer new staff to train on-site before transitioning to flexible schedules.
Are these new grad accounting and tax manager jobs?
Yes, these listings include new grad, recent graduate, and junior accounting and tax manager roles. A posting is new-grad friendly when it explicitly welcomes zero to two years of experience, accepts internships or academic projects in place of full-time history, or values a strong GPA and relevant coursework over a long resume. If a listing mentions mentorship programs or rotational training, it is almost always open to candidates coming directly out of school.
Which industries hire the most entry level accounting and tax managers?
Entry Level accounting and tax manager roles concentrate in Staffing & Recruiting, Technology & Software, and Construction & Real Estate, based on current listings on Migrate Mate as of November 2026. These sectors drive entry level hiring because they handle high volumes of compliance work, client filings, or internal reporting that requires dedicated junior accounting staff rather than relying solely on senior professionals.
