Role Summary

We are looking for an experienced Senior Tax Manager to lead complex tax engagements in a fully remote environment. In this role, you’ll be the go-to expert for high-level business, individual, and trust/estate returns. You aren’t just a number-cruncher here; you are a key relationship manager and advocate for our clients, helping them navigate intricate tax questions and representing them before tax agencies.

Key Responsibilities

• High-Level Review: Review (and occasionally prepare) complex tax returns for businesses, individuals, trusts, and estates.
• Client Advocacy: Act as the primary point of contact for clients and represent them in communications with the IRS and other agencies.
• Expert Research: Dive deep into complex tax research to provide accurate, high-quality guidance on technical questions.
• Team Collaboration: Work effectively with a remote team to ensure seamless delivery and a high standard of service.

Qualifications/Requirements

• Credentials: Active CPA license is required.
• Experience: 7+ years of recent public accounting experience focusing on tax.
• Technical Proficiency: Ability to review complex business and fiduciary/trust returns. Familiarity with Lacerte Tax software is a major plus.
• Specialized Knowledge: Ideally, you have experience with equity compensation tax planning (ISOs, NSOs, RSUs, ESPP).
• Communication: Exceptional verbal and written skills for high-touch client management.

Compensation/Benefits

• Retirement: 401(k) plan with a 3%–5% employer contribution.
• Health: Medical and dental insurance (Firm pays 100% of employee premiums).
• Wealth Support: H.S.A. contributions ($50 per pay period).
• Professional Growth: Paid professional renewals and continuing education (CPE).
• Generous Time Off: 20 days PTO, accrued sick leave, 15 paid holidays, and a bonus 5-day office closure after tax season.

Why This Opportunity is Different

This is a high-level leadership role that respects your time and expertise. We offer a fully remote schedule with a culture that actually rewards the tax season grind with a firm-wide week of paid leave once it’s over. You’ll have the autonomy to manage significant client relationships while being supported by a firm that covers your premiums and invests in your long-term professional standing.
