System Six, a joyful, modern, fast-growing and remote accounting organization, is excited to be looking for an entrepreneurial tax professional who will join us as our new Head of Tax. As Head of Tax, you will have autonomy to build a modern, remote tax-practice focused on serving both new and existing business clients the way you see fit!
You will only serve clients where we do their underlying bookkeeping - no individual 1040s! We aim to deliver all financials by Feb. 15, so we expect you will get to avoid busy season craziness. You will be supported by and work directly with the CEO and the rest of the System Six leadership team. This position is fully remote!
System Six is on an ambitious decades-long journey to become the best place to work in remote tax and accounting. This means consistently providing our team members with joy, growth, flexibility and rewarding-compensation. Over the past 30 months, in service of this mission, we have grown our team from 18 to 35 and increased revenue over 60%. Launching tax services is the next evolution in our growth, and we hope you are excited to join us!
So what are we looking for in an ideal candidate?
5+ years experience preparing and filing small business tax returns, primarily for S Corps and Partnerships, including select investor owned businesses which require issuance of K-1s
5+ years experience delivering other standard tax services such as planning, strategy, estimated payments etc.
3+ years reviewing the above tax related work and managing a team of tax professionals
Bachelor's Degree in Accounting or a related field. CPA required.
Fluency in modern tax software and other important cloud products
An entrepreneurial spirit - someone who is excited to build. This is not just about processing tax work; it’s about thoughtfully designing and building a 7+ figure tax division over time
Excellent communication skills across digital channels and an innate desire to build relationships
Keen attention to detail and adherence to deadlines and a passion for bringing the same out of others
Resourcefulness as an excellent problem solver who also knows when to ask for help
Humility and openness to coaching and critiques; always seeking to improve
Excellent coaching skills and a desire to empathetically build a team and teach and mentor junior staff
Joy and a positive attitude in all communications internally and externally
Persistence and an ability to politely remind others to stay on track

A joyful work environment where employees and culture are paramount. We understand that we are all humans and we want success in your professional life to enhance your personal life
Growth opportunities in an entrepreneurial environment. We are scaling System Six for decades ahead. We are backed by long-term capital, and as we continue to grow, we will relish providing growth opportunities to strong performing team members
