Tax Return Reviewer

Artbooks is a 30-year-old tax practice located in the Bloor-Spadina area that offers specialized tax preparation for people working in the arts. Our skilled team strives to instill a spirit of trust with our clientele and to build a sense of confidence about their unique tax situations.

The purpose of the Tax Return Reviewer is to review the work carried out by our Tax Preparers and to provide written and oral feedback on the returns they have prepared. The role requires experience working with sole proprietorships and HST and a sound knowledge of a variety of tax situations. Since artists often have international careers, a knowledge of international tax issues is an asset. Extensive tax preparation experience is required.

The position is freelance/contract, and is fully remote/work-from-home. You will work closely with the team via email, phone, and Slack, along with occasional staff meetings via Zoom. Compensation is a flat rate per tax return reviewed.

Our tax season runs from late February to April 30th, after which we take a two-week break and resume operations from mid-May to June 15th. The role gets progressively busier between February and the end of April, requiring longer hours as we approach the April 30 tax deadline. All in all, the Tax Return Reviewer can expect to review approximately 350-400 returns from February to April, and another 75-100 returns in May and June.

We anticipate a start date just after the February 17 holiday, with training and onboarding provided over the final two weeks of February.

If this opportunity appeals to you, please submit a cover letter and resume via email. For the cover letter, we are primarily interested in knowing more about your past experience working with taxes and tax preparation.
