Job description

Most firms talk about progression. This one has recently had a Partner retire, and they're looking for someone who could eventually take their place.

Founded in 2007 by three local Partners, this independent CPA firm has grown without losing the culture that made people want to work there in the first place.

They're now looking for a Senior Tax Manager who wants more ownership, more say in how things are run and the opportunity to help shape the firm's future.

You’ll work closely with business owners across construction, real estate, professional services and other local industries, handling S Corps, Partnerships, 1040s and tax planning. It's a mix of reviewing returns, advising clients, developing staff and managing your own portfolio.

And the culture?

Relaxed, family oriented and built on trust. No micromanaging, no unnecessary hierarchy and no one watching what time you walk through the door. They trust people to manage their own workload and get the job done.

It's predominantly an office based role, but there's flexibility when you need it.

The benefits: 4 weeks PTO, health insurance, 401(k) match, ongoing referral bonuses for clients you bring in, CPA loan reimbursement up to $3,000, flexible hours and a genuine opportunity to progress into Partnership.

Who they're looking for:

An experienced Tax Manager or Senior Tax Manager with strong public accounting experience, confident reviewing business and individual returns, managing clients and supporting junior staff.

Someone who wants to be more than another name on the organisational chart.

If you're ready for more responsibility, without sacrificing the flexibility and independence you've worked hard to earn, I'd be happy to tell you more.
