Job description

Tax Manager | Atlanta, GA | $125,000 to $150,000

Doing the client work that matters while the Partners barely know your name? In this Atlanta role you run your own portfolio, advise clients directly, and work right alongside leadership on how the tax team grows. Hybrid, $125,000 to $150,000. An established CPA firm in Atlanta is adding an experienced Tax Manager who wants more influence and room to keep progressing, without becoming another layer in a big structure. You'll manage the work, review complex returns, develop staff, and act as a real advisor to your clients rather than someone pushing files through a system. Advisory work sits alongside the compliance, so your judgment gets used.

What makes this different

• Your own portfolio and client relationships
• A direct working relationship with the Partners and wider leadership
• Advisory work, not just compliance
