Job description

At White Tiger Connections, we believe that growth isn’t just about numbers; instead, it’s about vision, strategy, and connections that truly count. Our focus on the accounting industry isn’t incidental—it’s entirely intentional. As a result, we’re a team dedicated to helping firms achieve meaningful growth, whether through mergers, acquisitions, strategic partnerships, or carefully placed talent. Ultimately, our approach isn’t about checking boxes; it’s about understanding the unique dynamics of each firm we work with and crafting solutions that propel them forward.

OUR MISSION

Our mission is to make powerful connections that propel accounting firms toward lasting success. We connect buyers, sellers, and partners with strategies that aren’t just transactional but transformative. Whether you’re growing through acquisition, looking to expand your capabilities, or planning for succession, we provide tailored solutions that create real value for your firm and your clients.

WHAT WE DO

White Tiger Connections focuses on three core areas: Mergers & Acquisitions, Consulting, and Recruiting. We work alongside you at every step, from identifying strategic opportunities to securing the right talent and guiding growth decisions. Our approach combines industry insight with hands‑on support, ensuring that each decision aligns with your firm’s goals and sets you up for sustainable success.

Job Description

This is a remote position.

About Guide Point

We're a growing remote accounting firm serving over 5,500 clients. Our approach stands apart from much of today's private equity–driven accounting landscape. We believe the profession has become too focused on profits at the expense of people and culture.

Instead, we're building a firm that values technical excellence, fairness, and respect for our professionals. Clear expectations, sustainable workloads, and a culture of integrity define how we operate—and how we aim to lead the next generation of accounting firms.

About the Role

The Tax Manager is responsible for delivering high-quality, technically sound accounting and tax solutions across a diverse client base of individuals and business owners. This position is ideal for a seasoned tax professional who values precision, client relationships, and meaningful work in a firm that prioritizes fairness and clarity over long hours and bureaucracy.

You'll work on a variety of individual and entity returns, manage direct client relationships, and serve as a trusted technical resource within the team. It's a role built for someone who wants to plant their flag at a well‑run firm and grow with it over the long term.

We have strong systems, software, and support staff in place, so administrative and preparatory tasks are not part of this role. We value team players who can help when needed, but are committed to keeping your time focused on work that matches your level and skill set.

Responsibilities

Manage full-cycle tax review, signing, and client communication across individual and business engagements.

Serve as a primary point of contact for clients who are individuals, business owners, or both — bringing emotional intelligence and professionalism to every interaction.

Handle a broad range of return types with primary focus on 1040, 1041, and 1065, with additional exposure to entity returns including 1120 and 1120S.

Read and interpret financial statements and review prepared business returns as part of supporting business‑owner clients.

Act as a technical resource for junior staff on foundational tax and entity concepts while maintaining an active workload of assigned engagements.

Contribute to firm integration and process‑improvement initiatives as new practices are onboarded.

Requirements

9-15 years of public accounting experience with strong technical tax skills across individual and entity return types.

Proficiency in individual, partnership, and S corporation tax compliance; familiarity with trust returns (1041) a plus, though depth is not required.

Ability to read financial statements and understand business accounting in the context of tax work.

Comfortable managing direct client relationships, including business owners — clear, professional, and emotionally intelligent in communication.

High attention to detail and strong organizational skills, especially in a remote environment.

Competitive Compensation

Fully remote
