Experienced Tax Preparer

Jackson Hewitt
Waterford, MI
Your Purpose:

At Jackson Hewitt, we provide an invaluable service in guiding our clients through the tax codes, rules, and processes. We do this with integrity, quality, and consistency. This is something that the vast majority of taxpayers don't receive from DIY or other assisted providers. We take pride in that. The role you play is critical to our success and together we are "Working Hard for the Hardest Working Americans". This is our mission and it's a large part of why we work here. Together we are highly passionate about what we do, and how we can help our clients.

Doing taxes is much more than filling in some forms. For most Americans, their tax return is the biggest single financial event of the year, and it can be quite an emotional experience. That's where you come in! We are here to ease their stress and provide expert customer service and tax knowledge.

Flexible Schedules Available:
  • Day shift
  • Night shift
  • Weekends
  • Weekdays
  • Full-time or Part-time

  • Looking to learn a new career and break into the tax industry?
  • Someone who has gaps in their work history or is looking to boost their skills and resume?
  • Someone who has been out of the workforce over the last year while at home with family?
  • New to the workforce or with limited experience/education, but a willingness to learn?
  • Retired and want to continue to make an impact?
  • Someone without a college diploma? No problem!
  • A Veteran or military personnel transitioning from the service?
  • Part of a military family that moves often with deployments?
  • A recent college graduate or current college student?
  • A stay-at-home parent who needs a flexible work schedule?
  • A gig worker or looking to add a second income?
  • Bilingual? Bilingual candidates are highly encouraged to apply!

What you'll do here:
