Derks Financial is looking to bring on a student/recent (master’s degree preferred) grad to our Tax & Accounting team. You’d have a large amount of responsibility to manage roughly 10 – 20 small business owners with anywhere from $500,000 to $5,000,000 a year in revenue. You would be their sole contact and develop an intimate professional relationship with them.
DF is an investment, tax, and accounting firm for business owners and individuals. We’re based in Lee’s Summit. We have business clients all across the city and individual clients all across the country. Over half the 7 staff members here are 35 years old or younger and we’re looking to keep that energy going by hiring people who match our company culture.
Some company culture & values:
- Being the “Rolex of T&A” by being the absolute best T&A firm in the city.
- Allow all employees to own equity in the firm so everyone realizes the growth of their hard work.
- Automate and streamline as much of the office and each person’s roles as possible.
- Constantly learning new ideas and strategies in order to bring in higher value clients.
- Zero tolerance for drama, gossip, excuses, lazy teammates. Remember when you’ve been part of a group project and maybe half the people don’t do anything? That does not happen here.
- Honesty – it’s an overused term but it is seriously the base of everything we do here. Trust is built on honesty and the second it’s broken it can’t be rebuilt.
- Work life balance – this is not corporate America.
Here are some of the things we’ll need from you in this role:
- Very good with organization because of regular deadlines and various schedules.
- Extremely computer savvy.
- Extremely Google-problem solving savvy.
- Confident to be left alone to get the job done without someone looking over your shoulder.
- Must have professional etiquette: proper English spoken, correct grammar, good handshake, etc.
- Problem solving skills. Think Scientific Method
- Working on a team. We rely on each other for this firm to grow.
