Job description

Senior Tax Manager | Remote | $175K–$210K + Equity | San Francisco Bay Area

I’m partnering with a fast-growing, technology-forward tax and accounting firm that is looking to add a Senior Tax Manager to its expanding team.

This is a great opportunity for an experienced tax professional who wants to manage sophisticated client relationships and complex tax engagements while joining a firm that is heavily investing in AI and proprietary technology to reduce routine administrative work and allow its professionals to spend more time on higher-value tax planning, advisory, and client service.

The firm serves primarily small businesses, entrepreneurs, and their owners and is continuing to grow both organically and through strategic acquisitions. With that growth comes significant opportunity for increased leadership responsibility, career advancement, and potential equity over time.

This position can be performed fully remote anywhere in the continental United States, although the team and a significant portion of the client base are on the West Coast in the San Francisco Bay Area.

Position Highlights

• Fully remote within the continental U.S.
• Potential for equity/stock options
• Leadership opportunity within a rapidly growing tax practice
• Technology-forward environment utilizing proprietary AI
• Direct ownership of sophisticated client relationships
• Opportunity to lead, mentor, and develop tax professionals
• Exposure to tax planning, compliance, and advisory across multiple entity types
• Clear path for continued advancement as the firm grows
• Occasional travel for client meetings and firm events

What You’ll Be Doing

• Own client relationships involving complex tax planning, compliance, and consulting
• Lead the preparation and review of complex federal, state, and local tax returns
• Work across individuals, partnerships, S Corporations, C Corporations, trusts, and estates
• Identify tax-saving opportunities and develop proactive, tax-efficient strategies for clients
• Translate changes in tax legislation into actionable planning opportunities
• Lead, mentor, and develop a team of tax professionals
• Oversee engagement quality and ensure complex tax positions are well-supported
• Identify opportunities to expand services and deepen existing client relationships
• Help improve processes and raise the overall quality of the growing tax practice

Ideal Background

• Active CPA or EA required
• 10+ years of public accounting or tax experience
• Strong experience across individual, partnership, and small-business taxation
• Deep experience with both tax compliance and planning/advisory
• Proven experience leading and developing tax professionals
• Experience directly managing client relationships and a book of business
• Strong federal, state, and local tax knowledge
• Experience with professional tax software such as CCH Axcess, UltraTax, Lacerte, or similar
• Experience expanding client relationships or supporting business development is a plus
• Experience taking over client relationships through firm or practice transitions is also beneficial
• Stock option plan
• Medical, dental, and vision insurance
• 401(k)
• Life insurance
• Short-term and long-term disability
• Unlimited vacation, plus sick time and public holidays
• Fully remote work environment

This could be a particularly strong opportunity for a Senior Tax Manager who enjoys the technical and relationship side of public accounting but wants to join a more entrepreneurial, technology-driven platform with the ability to play a meaningful role in the firm's continued growth.
