About TaxValet
We're not just a tax company. We're an emotions company.
We believe that the work we do is a reflection of our higher purpose in life. And if the work isn't fulfilling and enjoyable, what's the point? At our company, our Core Purpose is to "transform negative emotions into something positive for our clients, partners, and each other". It just so happens that we do that by eliminating the hassle and stress of sales tax. We are looking for candidates who are enthusiastic and want to work towards our Core Purpose, too.
As a fractional sales tax department, TaxValet handles everything for clients, from nexus analysis to permit registrations, filings, audit support, and more. Unlike traditional sales tax software that overpromises and underdelivers, we provide a comprehensive, custom-tailored solution that grows with our clients' businesses. And unlike traditional professional service firms, we offer an all-inclusive solution for a simple, predictable monthly rate with no billable hours.
We're a fast-growing, fully remote, financially stable, and profitable business with an AWESOME team of 80-ish teammates. We're building a world-class fractional sales tax department, and new team members will be part of the reason why.
As a certified B-Corporation, TaxValet is committed to using business as a force for good. This means we consider the impact of our decisions on our team, clients, community, and environment. We're also a "give 1%" organization, dedicating 1% of profit, employee time, and service time to nonprofits.
We are a core-value-driven business. That means we hire, promote, and reward based on alignment with our core values:
- Feel It: We value connecting with the real emotions and experiences of others. We also value respectfully sharing our own real emotions and experiences with others.
- Shape It: We proactively contribute our ideas and talents by speaking up, challenging the status quo, and taking calculated risks to shape our future.
- Own It: We take full responsibility for our actions, decisions, and outcomes. We use both successes and failures as opportunities for growth, openly sharing lessons learned.
- Crush It: We relentlessly pursue exponential impact in our business and life.
- Question It: Be curious. Ask questions. Seek clarity in the pursuit of continuous improvement and excellence. Create a culture of fearless inquiry.
If you're enthusiastic about transforming negative emotions into something positive and want to work towards our Core Purpose, we'd love to hear from you
