Enjoy working with people? Bring your positive attitude, flexibility, and willingness to
learn to our team.
Our independently owned Jackson Hewitt office in Berwyn is looking for a dynamic,
friendly, and dependable person who enjoys helping customers and works well with others.
We value someone who makes clients feel welcome, listens carefully, takes initiative, and
contributes to a positive office environment. We value a strong Tax preparation experience
and a strong customer-service attitude, teamwork, and a willingness to learn.
What We Are Looking For
• A friendly, pleasant personality. You are approachable, patient, respectful, and
genuinely interested in helping people feel comfortable.
• A team-oriented attitude. You work easily with others, communicate clearly,
accept guidance, and willingly help wherever needed.
• Flexibility and dependability. You arrive on time, follow through on responsibilities,
and adapt to changing schedules and office needs.
• Initiative and good judgment. You stay calm during busy periods, take ownership of
your work, and handle client questions professionally.
• Computer skills and attention to detail. You are comfortable learning software,
entering information accurately, staying organized, and protecting confidential
information.
English/Spanish bilingual skills are a plus as we serve a large Spanish speaking
community.
What You Will Do
• Welcome clients, build positive relationships, and provide friendly, attentive service
from their first visit through completion of their return.
• Gather and review client information, prepare accurate individual federal and state
tax returns, and explain results clearly using the training and procedures required for
the position.
• Work with the team to manage appointments, answer calls, follow up with clients,
and keep the office running smoothly.Helpful Experience and Required Training
Previous customer service, retail, or other public-facing experience is valuable. Tax
preparation experience is preferred, ideally two years or more. Experience with tax
preparation software and systems—especially Jackson Hewitt—is a plus.
Successful completion of required training is necessary before you are authorized to
prepare returns. You must also obtain or renew a valid IRS Preparer Tax Identification
Number (PTIN) for the applicable calendar year before preparing returns. IRS

This is an in-person, seasonal position in Berwyn. Applicants must be available
throughout the tax season, including weekends and occasional evening shifts.

We offer competitive compensation based on experience and qualifications. Specific
compensation terms will be discussed during the interview and hiring process.
