Tax is a very hot field right now. Hence, the law of supply and demand is working in your favor.  When you say compliance, and research, do you mean SOX and technical accounting?  I see people move out of audit or corporate accounting into accounting ops or field positions as part of rotations.  If I were you, I would have a resume that places more emphasis on accounting and also mentions tax work that pertains to supporting accounting entries.  Do you have a CPA?  [/quote]
When I mentioned compliance, I meant tax compliance (preparation of federal and state income tax returns, property tax returns, sales tax returns, etc.). I worked together with the technical accounting team to add explanations of the tax treatment of the transactions to their GAAP treatment memos. I also ensured that our tax processes and disclosures are compliant with SOX. So it has been purely tax related work for the last 5+ years. And yes, I have an active CPA license.

Do you work as an independent consultant? I started working on a contract recently and want to figure out whether it would be possible to find more projects in the future. I can always go back to a full time position, but am trying to find other, more interesting, options.[/quote]
