Job description

Like the resources and backing of a larger firm, but don't want the politics, crazy hours and corporate feel that can sometimes come with it?

If you join this regional firm in Greater Boston you would be joining a top 100 firm with around 500 people. You'll be heavily invested in, and supported to develop and grow without having to give up your personal life for 6 months of the year. You won't be expected to work crazy hours, and you'll work as part of a collaborative team with a driven but casual culture. This firm is big enough to have the resources, technology, brand and client base, but still human enough that people talk about work life balance without everyone quietly laughing into their coffee.

The firm is employee owned through an ESOP, privately funded, with no outside investors or private equity involved. So you are not walking into a place where the goal is to dress everything up for a sale in 18 months.

The role is a generalist tax manager position. You'll work with a diverse mix of complex mid-large businesses, and HNW individual tax returns. You'll also lead client relationships develop people in your team.

The sell:

• Busy season usually 48-60 hours
• Employee owned ESOP
• No outside investors or private equity
• Hybrid working from Braintree, or the North Shore
• Strong East Coast presence
• Summer Fridays and Floating Summer Fridays
• 23 days PTO
• Medical, dental and vision
• Life insurance contribution
• CPE and leadership development
• Dress For Your Day
• DEI Council, Women’s Council and charitable initiatives
• Wellness support, including gym discounts and CALM app
• Genuine upward mobility and room to help build something

This would suit a tax manager who wants a stronger platform, better resources, and a clearer long term future, without moving into a firm where everyone is permanently exhausted and pretending it is character building.
