I Provide Recruiting Solutions To Local CPA Firm Owners & Leaders By Delivering Untapped Talent At A Price Point That Won't Break The Bank

Relationship-first. Forward-focused. Ready for more.

Our client isn’t your typical CPA firm.

They’ve built a reputation as a best-in-class workplace—recognized among their city’s Best Places to Work, on the Inc. 5000 list, and honored by Accounting Today as one of the Best Small Firms in the country to work for.

But it’s not about the accolades. It’s about how they treat people.

Their team is redefining what it means to work in public accounting—bringing strategy, people, and purpose to the forefront.

Now they’re looking for an Accounting & Tax Manager to step into a key leadership role supporting small businesses with proactive, relationship-driven accounting and tax services.

What You’ll Do

• Manage monthly accounting and tax processes for a portfolio of small business clients
• Serve as a strategic advisor and main point of contact for client communication
• Ensure accurate financials and timely tax filings while identifying ways to add value
• Mentor and develop team members across tax and accounting functions
• Collaborate internally to improve workflows and drive smart use of technology
• Contribute to a people-first culture where results and relationships matter

Why This Role Is Different

This isn’t a back-office job filled with endless spreadsheets and last-minute fire drills.

It’s a client-facing, strategy-forward position where you get to help business owners make real decisions—without losing your nights, weekends, or sanity.

You’ll thrive here if:

• You’re done with burnout culture and looking for meaningful, manageable work
• You love building relationships and working directly with clients
• You value personality and perspective as much as technical skills
• You want to lead with intention, not just follow a process
• You’re energized by a team that collaborates, communicates, and genuinely enjoys the work

What You Bring

• CPA or EA preferred, or equivalent tax and accounting leadership experience
• At least 5 years in public accounting, ideally with small business clients
• Strong knowledge of GAAP, tax compliance, and advisory best practices
• Leadership experience with a proven ability to develop talent
• Excellent communication and organizational skills
• Experience with cloud-based accounting platforms like QuickBooks Online or Xero

What’s in It for You

• Competitive salary with performance-based bonus opportunities
• Generous PTO and paid volunteer time
• Company-paid health, dental, and vision insurance
• Flexible hours and a true commitment to work-life balance
• Ongoing professional development and a clear growth path
• A team-first culture rooted in trust, accountability, and fun

Let’s Start the Conversation

Even if you're unsure about a job move today, it might be the right time to start thinking about what’s next. If you’re an experienced accounting professional ready to lead, grow, and make a real difference, we’d love to connect.
