Tax Manager


Tax Manager – Salary: $120K – $150K+ base (flexible based on experience) + bonus


Tax Manager – Why This Opportunity Stands Out



  • Working a hybrid schedule with a growing, high-performing firm that is expanding rapidly and investing in its people

  • Exposure to a sophisticated High Net Worth (HNW) / Private Client Services (PCS) client base with complex tax needs

  • Opportunity to own client relationships and act as a trusted advisor—not just a preparer/reviewer

  • More manageable hours vs. Big 4 while still working on complex, meaningful engagements

  • Clear path for career growth and upward mobility as the firm continues to scale

  • Collaborative, team-oriented culture with strong leadership and mentorship


Tax Manager – Key Responsibilities



  • Review complex individual, corporate, and partnership tax returns; prepare highly complex returns as needed

  • Serve as a primary point of contact for clients, building and maintaining strong HNW/PCS relationships

  • Provide strategic tax planning, including estimating liabilities and advising on tax-saving strategies

  • Analyze organizational structures and transactions for tax implications

  • Review accounting processes (quarterly/annual) to ensure accurate tax reporting

  • Research and resolve complex tax issues; document findings and communicate recommendations

  • Manage multiple engagements, prioritize workload, and meet deadlines in a fast-paced environment

  • Supervise, mentor, and develop staff; provide ongoing feedback and conduct performance reviews

  • Collaborate with internal teams and external advisors to deliver a seamless client experience


Tax Manager – Qualifications



  • Strong experience in High Net Worth (HNW) / Private Client Services (PCS) tax is required

  • 5-10 Years of Experience

  • Background in public accounting (Big 4 or large regional firm preferred)

  • Experience reviewing complex tax returns across individual, partnership, and corporate entities

  • CPA, EA, or JD preferred (or actively pursuing)

  • Proven ability to manage client relationships and communicate complex tax concepts clearly
