Most firms say they care about work/life balance. This one caps busy season at 50 hours, and the office is mostly empty by 5 PM the rest of the year.

We're a mid-sized public accounting firm of about 150 people, with a 30 person tax team, and we're adding a Tax Manager. Our people stay because the work is interesting, the hours are reasonable, and leadership treats the team well.

What You'll Work On

• Individual, trust, partnership, and S corp returns
• Small and mid-sized business clients, with a strong base in manufacturing
• Reviewing work, developing staff, and serving as a main point of contact for clients
• Working closely with a tax team that knows what it's doing

Compensation and Benefits

• $150-200K base, depending on experience (senior-level CPAs coming in around $180K)
• 15% bonus for managers
• Profit sharing, with 3% of salary contributed to your 401(k)
• 5 weeks of PTO
• Full family medical coverage through Cigna

Why People Like Working Here

• Busy season tops out around 50 hours a week. Outside of tax season, people head home around 5.
• A low-stress environment where you're trusted to do your job
• Flexibility on schedule (this is an onsite role, but beyond that we're easy to work with)
• Regular firm events, golf outings, and a team that actually enjoys being around each other
• A real path forward. Senior Manager and Director roles are in reach, with partner track possible from there.

What We're Looking For

• CPA preferred
• Public accounting tax experience, including review
• Comfort working across individual, trust, and entity returns
• Someone who wants a long-term home, not just another stop
