Senior Tax Manager

If you enjoy working with complex private clients and want your work to go beyond compliance, this is the kind of firm where senior people stay technically involved, build long-term client relationships, and have a visible impact on the direction of the business. The client base is heavily focused on high net worth individuals and closely held businesses, with a large amount of trust, estate, gift, and pass-through entity work. They're looking for someone who can confidently advise sophisticated clients, communicate well, and eventually step into a larger leadership role within the firm. Why people tend to enjoy it here Busy season hours capped at around 55 Open PTO, with people encouraged to take time off Collaborative environment without a heavily political culture Strong technical client work without public company pressure Opportunity to progress towards Director or Partner level Firm leadership that is focused on sustainable growth Charity initiatives, team events, and regular in-person meet-ups A culture where people still seem to enjoy working together, even during busy season This is not a huge national machine where you disappear into layers of hierarchy. The firm sits at a size where strong hires are noticed quickly, and progression is realistic. Leadership actively wants people who can help shape the next phase of growth.
