Tax Manager (or Experienced Senior)

Hybrid $100,000 – $150,000

Tired of choosing between interesting work and a manageable schedule? Here, you don’t have to.

They strike that rare balance, small and close-knit enough that everyone knows your name, but with the complexity of work, client variety, and resources you’d expect from a larger regional firm. It’s a supportive, flexible environment where people stick around, and where your development actually matters.

You’ll work with a broad mix of clients from local family-run businesses to multi-million-dollar companies, estates, trusts, and nonprofits. There’s enough variety to keep things interesting, and while you’ll stay well-rounded, there’s also room to lean into your strengths or build a niche over time.

Day to day, you’ll be reviewing returns for businesses, individuals, and trusts, supporting junior staff, communicating directly with clients, and working with small business owners to review and adjust their books. You’ll be trusted to manage relationships, solve problems, and play a visible role on the team.

They encourage collaboration in the office but offer hybrid flexibility, and if you're still working toward your CPA, they’ll support you there too.

Whether you're coming from a larger firm and craving more autonomy, or from a smaller firm and looking for more technical challenge this offers both. There’s a clear path to partnership if that’s what you want, but no pressure if it's not.

Interested? Click the apply button, and I’ll be in touch to discuss the opportunity. If you'd prefer a chat first, feel free to call me, Imogen Talbot Slack, at 312-584-9844 or connect with me on LinkedIn.

Not Sure You Meet All the Qualifications? We still encourage you to apply! If you don’t meet every requirement, don’t let that stop you. The firm is dedicated to fostering a diverse, inclusive, and equitable workplace, and we are always looking for talent with a range of experiences. If this role isn’t the perfect fit, we may have other opportunities in public accounting that are a better match.
