- Determine the appropriate partner or office to serve each client and coordinate seamless handoffs.

- Serve as a relationship navigator between wealth advisors, firm leadership, and nationwide tax teams.
- Prepare and conduct initial reviews of 1041 trust and estate income tax returns.
- Prepare fiduciary accountings with familiarity of state statutes and related documentation.
- Analyze complex tax issues and provide well-reasoned conclusions.
- Perform diversified tax and accounting assignments under senior leadership.
- Demonstrate high-level technical proficiency and adherence to firm standards.
- Meet all workload and client deadlines consistently.
- Participate in and help lead training initiatives to develop technical skills across the team.
- Deliver exceptional client service with accuracy, attentiveness, and responsiveness.
- Build and maintain strong client and referral relationships.
