Job description

Overview

Public Accounting Recruiter | Tax & Audit | DC, Maryland & Virginia

This firm does things a little differently. Instead of the usual February and March chaos, they regulate hours throughout the year, so busy season doesn’t take over your life. There’s structure, yes, but it’s flexible enough to work around how you work best.

They put real emphasis on learning, adapting, and giving back. People come first in every decision, not as a slogan but as a genuine principle. From unlimited PTO and time set aside for training to a clearly mapped-out path for growth, this is a place that believes balance and ambition can actually coexist.

If you’re looking for career progression that doesn’t come at the cost of your wellbeing, this first-generation firm of over 130 people across several states might be the answer.

What makes them different:

Unlimited PTO, because time off should be based on trust, not a tally.
Sustainable growth, with plans to double in size over the next five years by hiring ahead of demand.
Direct impact, where decisions are made quickly and in the best interests of the team.
Real balance, with managers billing around 1,500 hours a year and encouraged to keep regular hours outside of tax season.
A supportive culture, led by an involved co-owner who keeps the focus on people through collaboration, training, and the occasional celebration.

Whether you’re a Tax Supervisor ready to take the next step or a Tax Manager with a CPA, there’s space to grow here. You can bring a generalist background or expertise in HNW clients and entities. Either way, you’ll move forward at a pace that matches your drive.

The firm’s people-first approach hasn’t gone unnoticed. Voted one of the Best Places to Work in 2024 and 2025, that recognition came straight from the team after tax season - a time when honesty usually wins out over loyalty.

If that sounds like somewhere you’d like to be, send a message or hit apply. Even if you don’t tick every box, the firm welcomes anyone who values learning, inclusion, and doing great work without burning out.
