Job description

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.

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.

  • Answer client calls.
  • Answer tax related questions and provide future tax planning to clients in a timely fashion.
  • Collection and processing of clients' payments while ensuring timely deposits.
