Tax Associate – Onsite – 2+ Years Paid Tax Experience Required Overview Intuit is seeking highly motivated individuals to join our dynamic team as dedicated TurboTax Live Seasonal Local Service Associates in one of our new TurboTax locations across the United States on a seasonal basis. This unique opportunity combines tax expertise, entrepreneurial spirit, and community engagement to help customers navigate their tax needs. As a TurboTax Live - Seasonal Local Service Associate, you will serve as a trusted advisor, empowering customers to achieve positive financial outcomes while supporting Intuit’s mission of “Powering Prosperity Around the World.”

About The Role In this role, you will work on-site from a TurboTax location, serving customers both in-person and virtually using Intuit TurboTax products. You will leverage your tax expertise to provide full-service tax return preparation, tax advice, calculations, and software/product support. Your ability to demonstrate understanding of each customer’s unique situation and connect with them on a personal level is critical to alleviating the stress some may feel when tackling their taxes. Whether assisting with simple W2 filings, navigating life events (marriage, children, elder care), or handling more complex tax scenarios like business income, amendments, or investments, you will serve as the go-to expert for your clients. Additionally, you will play a key role in growing TurboTax’s client base within the local community, establishing long-term relationships, and driving customer loyalty. TurboTax will provide you with a straightforward playbook, essential tools, and dedicated support to facilitate your success. This role is nonexempt and requires onsite presence at a TurboTax location in the United States on a seasonal basis.

What You’ll Do

Provide tax expertise – give hands‑on tax advice and complete preparation services for TurboTax clients, handling simple to complex tax situations (personal and business income, deductions optimization, amendments). Facilitate discovery sessions and tax reviews to uncover deductions, minimize liabilities, maximize refunds, and provide future tax‑planning advice.

Be a proactive community ambassador – embody a “community ambassador” and “business owner” mindset to cultivate a robust customer base for TurboTax. Serve as the local face of TurboTax, actively engaging with new prospects, nurturing leads, and converting them into long‑term clients through proactive outreach. Organize local events to create opportunities for customer engagement.

Educate and communicate confidently – represent TurboTax in your local community. Host engaging learning events, participate in local marketing efforts, and demystify taxes to make them accessible and approachable.

Build relationships – connect with people, demonstrate understanding and sensitivity to their financial concerns, and build long‑term trust that turns one‑time transactions into loyal, multi‑year relationships.

Deliver a best‑in‑class customer experience – create an exceptional customer experience, professionalism, and genuine interest in helping clients achieve their financial goals (saving for retirement, college funds, weddings, or vacations). Interact with customers both in‑person and through Intuit’s state‑of‑the‑art video communication tools.
