Summary

National cloud-based bookkeeping firm serving small businesses and founders is launching a tax offering to our existing bookkeeping client base and are seeking a licensed CPA (or equivalent) to lead this new tax offering end to end, under a white-label partnership. We already have several indications of interest from our client base and are bullish on our ability to be a material distribution platform for the right tax partner. You already run a successful tax practice — your own CPA license, PTIN, software stack, insurance, and workflows. We're looking to partner with that capacity. You'll lead and deliver tax services under our brand, serving clients who already trust us for their books, while continuing to run your own practice independently. We will work out economics via revenue share or other tenable economics that is a win-win. Serve our existing bookkeeping clients (individuals and small-business owners) for tax prep, filing, and planning. Underwrite, close, onboard, and lead new tax clients as the offering grows. Set the standards, workflows, and client experience for how tax gets delivered. Coordinate with our management, sales, and bookkeeping team so the tax-to-books handoff is clean. What You Bring: - Active CPA license (or equivalent) in good standing - Current PTIN and ability to e-file - An established tax practice with your own tools and software - Experience and expertise with the full suite of tax services such as small-business and individual returns (S-corps, partnerships, Schedule C, etc.), sales tax, VAT tax, Tangible property tax, etc. - Comfort working with cloud-based, founder-led small businesses - Self-directed — you can own a service line, not just process returns The Arrangement This is a white-label partnership: you deliver under our brand, and we handle distribution, and growth of the offering. We're flexible to the specific economics (revenue share or per-return) and want a model that scales well for both sides as volume grows. Goal is for yo to fold into our tea seamlessly so that our clients experience a full vertical integration of tax+bookkeeping. To apply: Tell us about your current practice, exoerience, your license/PTIN status, the types of returns you handle, and what a white-label partnership structure would look like for you.
