Job Description:
A fully remote, tight-knit CPA firm is seeking an experienced Tax Manager to lead tax preparation, review, high-level consulting, and team development for a growing client base of mid-sized businesses, medical practices, dermatology groups, med spas, and women-owned businesses.
This role is designed for a confident, proactive tax professional who brings deep S Corp and partnership experience, loves working directly with clients, and thrives on helping shape a modern, collaborative tax department.

Responsibilities:

• Serve as a client-facing tax leader providing strategic advisory, consulting, and planning
• Oversee and guide 2 preparers and 1 reviewer — training, mentoring, and helping team members grow into reviewers themselves
• Deliver proactive tax strategy, planning meetings, and big-picture recommendations to clients ($1M–$10M revenue range)
• Participate in planning meetings with clients alongside the tax team
• Contribute to creating and improving processes, procedures, and best practices within the tax department
• Take on complex and high-level consulting work so the firm’s owner can focus more on growth and leadership
• Collaborate closely with other team members — each client is supported by a bookkeeper, a tax preparer, and a tax reviewer working together
• Be a true partner in helping shape the future of the firm — not just a “yes person” but a strategic voice

Qualifications:

• Active CPA or EA license required
• 8+ years of tax experience, with significant recent experience in a CPA firm setting
• Strong technical knowledge and practical experience with S Corporations and partnerships
• Confident in client-facing meetings and comfortable advising on planning questions (stock sales, asset purchases, etc.)
• Demonstrated experience managing, mentoring, and developing tax preparers and reviewers
• Proficient with Canopy CRM, CCH Axcess, QuickBooks Desktop/Online, Xero, and cloud-based workpapers (Adobe PDF)
• Comfort using technology, including AI tools like ChatGPT

Experience:

• Must have a proven track record of handling complex business and individual returns, supervising staff, and delivering strategic advice to mid-sized business clients
• Strong consulting mindset — connecting technical tax knowledge with what the client wants to accomplish

Culture:

• 100% remote with a flexible schedule — 40 hours a week year-round, including tax season
• Tight-knit, drama-free culture with an intentional, anti-gossip policy — people enjoy working with and for each other
• CPA/Owner mentors the Tax Manager directly
• The right hire won’t just bring technical skill but will help shape the team, the systems, and the client experience as the firm grows

Benefits:

• Competitive salary $100,000–$150,000 depending on experience
• Flexible schedule with true work/life balance
• Collaborative team environment where your ideas and expertise help shape the future
• Direct mentorship from a forward-thinking CPA owner
• Long-term opportunity for influence, growth, and meaningful leadership

If you’re an experienced tax professional who wants to do more than just compliance — who wants to build, lead, advise, and grow alongside a people-first team — we’d love to meet you.
