Relevant Backgrounds
You may be a fit if your experience includes one or more of the following:
• Preparing individual tax returns, personal tax planning, capital-gains matters, or self-employment and quarterly taxes.
• Advising individuals on investments, asset allocation, portfolio rebalancing, retirement accounts, or Social Security planning.
• Helping households with comprehensive financial planning, budgeting, cash flow, debt, or financial goals.
• Supporting estate and gift tax, trust administration, beneficiary planning, or fiduciary accounting in a non-attorney capacity.

Relevant titles may include CPA, Enrolled Agent, personal tax preparer, financial advisor, wealth advisor, retirement planner, financial planner, trust officer, or fiduciary accountant.
