TAX AND ACCOUNTING SUPERVISOR

TAX INDUSTRY

SALARY: 35,000 - 55,000

LOCATION: SAN PEDRO, LAGUNA

Are you an experienced accounting and tax professional looking for a supervisory opportunity? This role is ideal for candidates with strong tax knowledge, BIR experience, and the ability to handle client engagements and accounting operations.

QUALIFICATIONS:

Certified Public Accountant (CPA) preferred; unlicensed candidates with at least 3 years of practical accounting and tax experience will be considered if a suitably experienced CPA is not available.

• At least 3 years of relevant experience, including experience as an engagement in-charge, team lead, or direct supervisor.
• Meaningful experience (2+ years) in a Big 4 accounting firm (SGV & Co., KPMG R.G. Manabat &

Co., Isla Lipana & Co./PwC, Deloitte) or another large, reputable audit and advisory firm. Candidates from a Tax practice background are strongly preferred over Audit-only experience, given this role's heavy BIR-facing scope. Senior-level candidates, not yet at Manager level, are welcome to apply. • Strong working knowledge of Philippine Financial Reporting Standards (PFRS, including PFRS for SMEs), BIR regulations, and current issuances (RRs, RMOs, RMCs).

• Direct experience handling BIR audits, LOAs, or tax assessments is a strong advantage.
• Some experience leading, coaching, or reviewing the work of junior staff, whether as a direct

supervisor or as an engagement in-charge. Candidates without formal direct-report experience are welcome; this will be actively supported during the ramp-up period. • Strong written communication skills, with the ability to draft technical memos, protest letters, and client-facing advisory notes. • Comfortable representing clients in direct, sometimes adversarial, discussions with BIR examiners and revenue officers.

1. Accounting, Bookkeeping, and Tax Compliance Reporting • Lead onboarding for new clients availing Monthly Retainer Engagement (MRE) services, including kickoff meetings, document and account setup, compliance calendars, and briefing the assigned Junior Accountant.

• Oversee accurate transaction entries and bookkeeping across the client portfolio, and supervise the preparation of spreadsheets and books of accounts required for BIR compliance.

• Ensure accurate record-keeping and compliance with BIR regulations across all client accounts.
• Implement and maintain a sound accounting system to efficiently monitor client accounts and streamline accounting processes.

• Prepare client reports and documentation, proactively addressing compliance issues and providing regular updates on engagement progress.

2. Technical Accounting Review and Financial Statement Oversight

• Oversee the preparation of Annual Financial Statements for clients, coordinating with partner external auditors and BOA-accredited CPAs for audit opinion and sign-off.
• Review journal entries for complex or non-routine transactions, including asset disposals, foreign exchange adjustments, accruals, and depreciation policy changes.
• Advise clients on proper accounting treatment for unusual transactions and ensure alignment with applicable PFRS.
• Review and finalize disclosure notes and supporting schedules for Annual Financial Statements prior to external audit submission.
• Communicate changes and updates to Accounting Standards and frameworks in the Philippines to the team and, where relevant, to clients.
• Identify and flag accounting risks or irregularities across client portfolios and recommend corrective actions to Management.
