We are seeking a seasoned, highly-proactive Client Tax Accountant & Executive Assistant. My CPA Coach is a fast-growing, remote CPA firm specializing in proactive tax planning for business owners. We are building an elite, high-performance team and need a Client Tax Accountant & Executive Assistant who thrives on communication, problem-solving, and handling administrative tasks on the behalf of our expert CPAs and CEO.
The Role
You will be the operational heartbeat of My CPA Coach. You will monitor workflows, help clients get answers, resolve escalations, recruit talent, support the tax & bookkeeping team, and ensure important tasks do not fall through the cracks. The ideal candidate thrives in a fast-paced environment, enjoys solving problems, and isn't afraid to jump into unfamiliar situations and figure things out.
Highlights of the Role:
- The CEO’s Right Hand: Serve as a strategic partner and key driver of operations for the firm, making a direct impact on our growth and client satisfaction.
- Manage Firm Operations: Wear multiple hats across firm operations, client management, and technical accounting.
- Competitive Compensation: Receive an attractive base salary while developing elite skills in both specialized tax operations and business management.
- 100% Remote: Work from the comfort of your own home with a supportive, high-performance team.
What You’ll Do1. Client Success & Project Administration
- Traffic Control: Monitor our practice management system (TaxDome) to ensure all jobs hit their deadlines, customers are responded to, and bottlenecks are resolved.
- The Follow-Up Engine: Proactively call and text clients to collect outstanding items that our service team needs to complete their engagements.
- The CEO Shield: Serve as the primary contact for customer escalations, resolving issues firmly, empathetically, and professionally before they reach leadership.
- Collaborative Support: Collaborate with internal team members, including CPAs and bookkeeping specialists, to help fulfill tax and accounting engagements on an as-needed basis.
- SOP Architect: Use internal knowledge to document processes and procedures, ensuring every operational task is repeatable and standardized.
2. Talent & Employee Success
- Recruiting Ownership: Own the hiring pipeline—post ads, screen resumes, and conduct initial interviews so we always have a "bench" of talent ready to go.
- Team Onboarding: Manage the onboarding and ramp-up process for new hires, ensuring they have the tools and training to be productive as soon as possible.
- Firm Administration: Provide internal support to various administrative functions in the firm, which may include assisting with internal billing, payroll, human resources, and reporting.
The Ideal Candidate
- Elite Interpersonal & Communication Skills: You are a fast thinker, an active listener, and a natural problem-solver under pressure. When a client is stressed or an issue escalates, you listen intently, think quickly on your feet, and guide them to a solution.
- The "Phone First" Mentality: You aren't afraid to pick up the phone. You prefer a quick, proactive 2-minute call over a 10-email chain.
- Proactive Execution: You don't wait to be told what to do. You see a "stuck" tax return, a client escalation, or a broken workflow, and you immediately step in to fix it.
Qualifications & Must-Haves
- 3+ Years of Client Tax Preparation and/or Bookkeeping Experience
- 3+ Years of Client-Facing Experience
- QuickBooks Certification is a plus
- Tech-Savvy: You are highly confident troubleshooting remote tools like TaxDome, CRMs (HighLevel), and Zapier.
- Precision Execution: High attention to detail. If an operational document or a financial task needs correction, you fix it correctly the first time.

Tips for Your Remote Client Accounting Manager Job Search
Quantify your client portfolio on your resume
Client accounting manager resumes that list the number of client accounts managed, average revenue per client, and retention rates stand out. Hiring managers want to see scope, not just duties. Pull these numbers from your billing records or CRM before you apply.
Highlight your software stack explicitly
Firms screen resumes for specific platforms like QuickBooks Online, NetSuite, Sage Intacct, or Xero. List every accounting platform you've used in a dedicated skills section, and note whether you have administrator-level access, not just end-user experience.
Target firms by their client service model
Outsourced accounting firms, fractional CFO shops, and traditional CPA practices all hire client accounting managers but expect different skill sets. Read each job description for phrases like 'advisory services' or 'compliance-focused' to match your background to the right employer type.
Apply early to roles that fit
Migrate Mate lists client accounting manager openings from across the United States in one place, so you can find roles that match and apply directly to each listing.
Prepare client scenario answers for interviews
Interviewers for this role routinely ask how you've handled a client who disputed a deliverable or missed a deadline. Prepare two or three specific situations where you resolved a billing disagreement, reset client expectations, or caught an error before the client did.
Negotiate scope before accepting an offer
Before signing, ask exactly how many clients you'll own on day one and what the expected growth looks like over twelve months. Client accounting managers who skip this often find themselves managing twice the book they interviewed for within six months of starting.
