Tax Professional Jobs in Washington: Frequently Asked Questions

How do you become a tax professional in Washington?

The most direct path is earning a CPA license through the Washington State Board of Accountancy, which requires a bachelor's degree with qualifying accounting credits, passing all four sections of the Uniform CPA Exam, and completing a supervised experience requirement. Enrolled Agent status granted by the IRS is another recognized credential for tax-focused roles. Some employers hire candidates with a relevant degree and tax software experience while they complete licensing requirements.

How much do tax professionals make in Washington?

Tax professionals in Washington earn a median of about $45,370 a year, based on May 2025 Bureau of Labor Statistics wage data, ranging from around $38,260 for the lowest 10% to over $71,480 for the top 10%. Pay rises with experience, specialty, and employer.

Which companies hire tax professionals in Washington?

Employers hiring tax professionals in Washington right now include H&R Block and Intuit, based on current listings on Migrate Mate as of November 2026. Washington's concentration of large technology headquarters and publicly traded companies in the greater Seattle and Bellevue area creates consistent demand for corporate and international tax specialists alongside the major public accounting firms serving those clients.

Which Washington cities have the most tax professional jobs?

Tacoma, Kent, and Seattle have the most tax professional openings in Washington. Seattle and Bellevue drive the largest share of demand, anchored by the headquarters of major technology and retail companies that maintain in-house tax departments, while Spokane draws hiring from regional accounting firms and healthcare organizations serving eastern Washington.

Are there remote tax professional jobs in Washington?

Yes, and more than most fields. About 0% of tax professional openings tied to Washington are remote or hybrid as of November 2026, reflecting how well tax research, compliance preparation, and client advisory work translate to remote environments. Roles centered on document review, tax return preparation, and research tend to be the most consistently offered in remote or flexible formats.

How can I get hired as a tax professional in Washington with little or no experience?

The most realistic entry point is applying for a tax associate or staff accountant role at a regional public accounting firm in Seattle, Bellevue, or Spokane, where firms such as Moss Adams actively recruit candidates who are sitting for the CPA exam. Large Washington employers with in-house tax departments sometimes offer rotational programs for new graduates. Lateral moves from bookkeeping, accounts payable, or payroll roles are common, and sitting for the Enrolled Agent exam can differentiate a candidate without prior tax experience.

Where can I find and apply to tax professional jobs in Washington?

You can find and apply to tax professional jobs in Washington on Migrate Mate, which lists current Washington openings from employers actively hiring in the state. Find roles that fit your experience and credentials and apply directly to the ones that match.
