When you say majority of the returns, is that just fed or do you have salt and/or international too? Also are you looking for a compliance specific role or what?

I’m a newly promoted senior in the Baltimore metro area who does tax compliance. For my biggest engagement I prepared (will now review) Fed and every single state return they file which is every state except FL and VT. This client takes up almost half of my billable hours, so I’d say I’m pretty close to what you’re asking about. Feel free to dm me if you want to talk!

90k? Something you didn’t mention is whether the role is going to be in a specialty like SALT or general compliance.

I have experience in both fed and salt, i can do both, but prefer to focus with salt

Are you a cpa? With a cpa I imagine you would be around 85k or 90k base plus bonus

Not cpa yet just masters with PwC big experience and industry experience.

How do you tell them when the managing partner took you under his wing?
