Case Manager

Tax Relief Advocates
02.2020 - 02.2021

Managed a case load of 450-500 clients daily and made sure all cases were moved along accordingly. It was my duty to follow-up and provide updates frequently, obtain financial documentation, and communicate effectively to my team of tax professionals. I dealt with simple tax prep cases and also very heavy cases with clients that were dealing with a levy, lien and/or revenue officer. It was very interesting insight being in this position; as I got to interact with so many different individuals and help them out of such stressful financial circumstances.

Primarily responsible for ensuring efficient workflow from all representatives in my department, as well as providing detailed reports to the owner of the company on a weekly basis; conducting biweekly or monthly meetings regarding work performance.

Daily duties entailed completing tasks, answering customer care calls and assisting clients with payment adjustment or questions regarding the process of the tax resolution program, filing, scheduling appointments, scheduling interviews and interviewing candidates, training all incoming employees, corresponding via email with clients to ensure highest level of satisfaction for services, organizing paper mail received from clients, scanning and uploading financial documents to clients files, scanning documents and faxing to the IRS per requests from a tax preparer, case manager, or enrolled agent, ordering transcripts from the IRS via phone.

Being promoted to a leadership position gave me the opportunity to grow personally, help others, and gain respect professionally.
