Tax Director

$217k - $256k

Oliver James Associates Ltd.

Tax Director | Hybrid | San Jose, CA

Lead. Advise. Influence.

Are you a seasoned tax leader looking for a firm where your expertise is valued, your voice is heard, and your career can continue to grow?

A nationally recognized public accounting and advisory firm is seeking a Tax Director to join its growing San Jose office. This is an opportunity to work with sophisticated middle‑market and closely held businesses while mentoring high‑performing teams and helping shape the future of a thriving tax practice.

If you're passionate about technical excellence, client relationships, and developing the next generation of tax professionals, we'd love to hear from you.

What You’ll Do

  • Lead the review and approval of complex corporate, partnership, and individual tax engagements.
  • Serve as a trusted advisor to clients, providing proactive tax planning and strategic guidance.
  • Build and strengthen long‑term client relationships while delivering exceptional service.
  • Mentor, coach, and develop tax professionals, helping drive team success.
  • Collaborate with audit and advisory teams on integrated client solutions.
  • Represent clients before taxing authorities when needed.
  • Stay ahead of changing tax legislation and advise clients on emerging opportunities and risks.
  • Play an active role in business development, networking, and expanding the firm's presence in the market.

What We’re Looking For

  • CPA in good standing.
  • 7–10+ years of progressive public accounting tax experience.
  • Strong background in corporate taxation and tax provisions.
  • Experience representing clients before federal and/or state taxing authorities.
  • Proven leadership experience managing and developing tax professionals.
  • Bachelor's degree in Accounting (Master's in Taxation preferred).
  • Excellent communication, client management, and business development skills.

Why This Opportunity?

You’ll join a highly respected firm known for combining the resources of a large national practice with the collaborative culture of a regional firm. Leadership is committed to professional development, mentorship, innovation, and creating clear pathways for career advancement.

This is an excellent opportunity for an experienced Tax Senior Manager ready to step into a Director role—and an established Tax Director seeking a firm that values leadership, technical expertise, and client relationships.

Compensation & Benefits

  • $217,000–$256,000 base salary
  • Hybrid work environment
  • Comprehensive benefits package
  • Leadership and professional development programs
  • Opportunity to work with a diverse portfolio of sophisticated clients
  • Clear path for continued career growth

If you're ready to take the next step in your public accounting career with a firm that invests in its people, we'd love to connect.
