RamGrows Fin. Corp. is expanding its professional tax team for the upcoming tax season. We provide tax, accounting, and financial services to diverse multilingual communities through our offices in Brooklyn, NY and Philadelphia, PA, and we are looking for experienced bilingual tax professionals who want to work in a modern, technology-driven environment.
Candidates should be able to communicate professionally in English plus at least one additional language. We are particularly interested in professionals who speak Spanish, Ukrainian, Russian, Georgian, Uzbek, Tajik, or Urdu.
A Different Kind of Tax Preparation Environment
RamGrows has developed a highly automated, AI-driven tax preparation and client-management system designed to significantly reduce repetitive manual work, document handling, and traditional data-entry tasks.
Our goal is to allow tax professionals to spend less time performing routine clerical work and more time doing the work that requires professional knowledge and judgment:
reviewing information, analyzing tax situations, identifying issues and opportunities, communicating with clients, verifying accuracy, and making professional tax decisions.
The result is a more intellectual, reviewer-style tax professional position, supported by automation and AI rather than a traditional data-entry-heavy tax preparation job.
Selected candidates will receive training on the RamGrows system before beginning work.
Responsibilities
Tax Professionals may be responsible for preparing and reviewing federal and state individual income tax returns; working with W-2, 1099, Schedule C, rental, investment, and other income; preparing or assisting with business returns; reviewing AI- and system-generated tax information for accuracy and completeness; identifying missing or inconsistent information; conducting professional client interviews; explaining tax results to clients in English and their additional language; identifying potential deductions, credits, filing issues, and compliance concerns; responding to or assisting with IRS and state notices when appropriate; maintaining client confidentiality; and following RamGrows quality-control, documentation, security, and compliance procedures.
As professionals gain experience with our system, opportunities may also include senior reviewer, supervisory, office-management, training, and advisory responsibilities.
Minimum Qualifications
Candidates should have at least two years of professional tax preparation experience and the ability to prepare and/or review individual tax returns with limited supervision.
Candidates should speak English plus at least one additional language and demonstrate strong tax knowledge, attention to detail, client-service skills, professionalism, and the ability to work efficiently during a high-volume tax season.
Highly Preferred Candidates
We strongly encourage applications from:
Enrolled Agents (EA)
Certified Public Accountants (CPA)
Senior Tax Preparers
Business Tax Professionals
Tax Reviewers
Professionals experienced in IRS representation
Experienced Tax Office Managers and Team Leaders
Training & Technology
Before the tax season, RamGrows will provide training specifically on our automated and AI-driven workflow, software, internal procedures, client-management process, document handling, quality-control procedures, and tax preparation systems.
The purpose of the training is not to teach basic tax preparation from the beginning. It is designed to help experienced tax professionals quickly become productive within the RamGrows technology platform and professional review process.
Compensation
Compensation generally starts at $20/hour and can increase to $50/hour, depending on experience, credentials, tax expertise, language skills, productivity, and level of responsibility.
During peak tax season, earning opportunities can increase significantly, particularly for experienced preparers, reviewers, EAs, CPAs, managers, and professionals capable of handling complex returns or supervising other preparers.
Partnership & Expansion Opportunities
RamGrows is also interested in building relationships with highly experienced tax professionals, CPAs, EAs, and entrepreneurial tax professionals throughout the United States.
For qualified professionals in other markets, we are open to discussing management, business-development, office expansion, and potential partnership opportunities in different U.S. cities.
Pay: $20.00 - $70.00 per hour
Expected hours: 30.0 – 50.0 per week
Work Location: In person

Tax Professional Jobs in New York: Frequently Asked Questions
How do you become a tax professional in New York?
To practice as a licensed tax professional in New York, most candidates pursue CPA licensure through the New York State Education Department, which requires a bachelor's degree with specific accounting credits, passing all four sections of the Uniform CPA Exam, and completing the required experience hours. New York also recognizes enrolled agents credentialed through the IRS. For non-licensed tax roles in corporate or private industry, a degree in accounting or finance paired with relevant internship experience is the standard entry path.
How much do tax professionals make in New York?
Tax professionals in New York earn a median of about $71,850 a year, based on May 2025 Bureau of Labor Statistics wage data, ranging from around $39,010 for the lowest 10% to over $125,070 for the top 10%. Pay rises with experience, specialty, and employer.
Which companies hire tax professionals in New York?
Employers hiring tax professionals in New York right now include H&R Block, WithumSmith+Brown, and RamGrows, based on current listings on Migrate Mate as of September 2026. New York's density of multinational corporations, major financial institutions, and Big Four accounting offices makes it one of the deepest markets in the country for tax roles at every level.
Which New York cities have the most tax professional jobs?
New York, Brooklyn, and Staten Island have the most tax professional openings in New York. New York City dominates because of its concentration of financial services firms, corporate headquarters, and Big Four offices, while White Plains and Melville draw significant hiring from regional accounting firms and large suburban employers with in-house tax departments.
Are there remote tax professional jobs in New York?
Yes, and more than most fields. About 40% of tax professional openings tied to New York are remote or hybrid as of September 2026, reflecting the desk-based and analytical nature of most tax work. Tax compliance, tax research, and individual return preparation roles are the most commonly offered in remote or hybrid arrangements, while tax provision and audit support roles more often require some in-office presence.
How can I get hired as a tax professional in New York with little or no experience?
The most realistic entry path is an associate or staff tax position at a regional or national accounting firm, many of which recruit directly from New York universities through campus programs. Large firms with New York offices run structured new-graduate programs where candidates rotate through compliance and provision work before specializing. Lateral moves from bookkeeping, payroll, or accounts payable roles are common at mid-size firms. Sitting for the CPA exam or obtaining an IRS enrolled agent credential while applying gives candidates a clear edge over those without any credentials in progress.
