Job Description

James Bates Brannan Groover LLP, a leading law firm with offices in Atlanta, Macon, and Athens, Georgia, is seeking an experienced CPA to join the Corporate and Transactional group as an analyst in our Atlanta office.

Our firm believes in the importance of our people. We strive to provide the best experience for our employees and clients by living out our core values: Servant Leadership, Pursuit of Excellence, Integrity, and Respect for Others.

Our Corporate and Transactional Group represents founder-led and family-owned businesses across a wide variety of complex corporate matters with a focus on sell-side mergers and acquisitions. Our Corporate and Transactional Group has negotiated successful exits for our clients against the largest and most sophisticated strategic and financial buyers in the country. We have closed transactions having over $2 billion enterprise value in recent years.

This position would be based in our Atlanta office, and you would work directly with the attorneys in that office. This opportunity allows the CPA to work on complex and interesting transactions in a boutique environment. You would have direct contact with clients in a wide array of industries (e.g., industrial, mechanical, manufacturing, construction, logistics, professional services, etc.) as they engage in what is likely the most significant financial decision of their lives. This CPA would be a direct member of the Corporate and Transactional Group and work alongside its attorneys. Having practiced together the majority of their legal careers, the attorneys in our Corporate and Transactional Group are a tight-knit group, and we are looking for another valued member to join. The person who previously held this position moved to another industry.

This CPA analyst would also assist in estate and gift planning analysis to work in conjunction with the other CPA analysts who work at the firm. These services would include review of gift tax returns and some assistance in reviewing and drafting wills, trusts and other estate planning documents.

  • Solid understanding of financial statements and financial accounting principles
  • Comprehensive knowledge of corporate tax (primarily S corporations) and partnership tax concepts
  • Excellent analytical and organizational skills with strong attention to detail
  • Ability to manage multiple projects and deadlines in a fast-paced, team-oriented environment

Key Responsibilities

  • Perform tax and financial analysis for business transactions, mergers, and acquisitions
  • Assist attorneys with structuring and modeling transactions for tax efficiency and compliance
  • Review and interpret financial statements, tax returns, and related documentation
  • Conduct due diligence and prepare financial summaries for client and internal use
  • Research tax laws and corporate compliance issues relevant to ongoing matters
  • Develop creative and strategic plans to address purchase price adjustment provisions, such as working capital adjustments
  • Analyze and plan for potential tax recapture issues associated with asset dispositions, depreciation, and deferred exchanges
  • Creative problem solving to identify innovative, practical solutions that support client goals and transaction success
  • Collaborate with attorneys to develop and implement strategic business and tax solutions
  • Work closely with clients’ accountants on due diligence and transaction-related tax implications
