Senior Accountant

Our mission is to help healthcare professionals achieve the financial freedom they deserve through proactive advice, specialized expertise, and strategic planning.

At RX Dental Accountants, we’re not your typical accounting firm. In partnership with our sister firm, RX Dental Wealth Management, we are a family office specializing exclusively in helping pharmacists, dentists, and physicians make smarter financial decisions, minimize taxes, and build long-term wealth.

Our team is driving this mission forward by delivering the proactive advice and specialized expertise that most healthcare professionals never receive. Our clients trust us to guide them through everything from incorporation and bookkeeping to advanced tax planning, practice acquisitions, and long-term wealth strategies.

We are growing and looking for an ambitious Senior Accountant who is ready to take the next step in their career. This is an opportunity to move beyond traditional compliance work, take ownership of client engagements, mentor developing accountants, and gain exposure to sophisticated tax planning and business advisory services.

If you're looking for greater autonomy, meaningful client work, and a clear path toward becoming an Accounting Manager or Tax Manager, this is an opportunity to grow with a firm that invests in your future.
