Tax Manager

Tax Manager $145,000 - $200,000 / Year location_on Chicago, Illinois Accounting & Finance acute Permanent

Tax Manager / Senior Tax Leader (HNW Individuals)

Location: Chicago (Loop) | Hybrid (1–2 days onsite)

Join a rapidly scaling, privately held tax and advisory platform focused on high-net-worth individuals. This is a growth hire driven by strong inbound demand—not business development. You'll step into complex, high-impact work with a clear path to leadership.

Responsibilities
  • Prepare and review complex HNW/UHNW individual tax returns
  • Oversee staff while remaining hands-on in execution
  • Support onboarding of new clients from an active referral pipeline
  • Advise on tax strategy, planning, and optimization
  • Navigate complex structures (multi-entity ownership, significant assets, high-judgment scenarios)
  • Partner cross-functionally to improve workflows and delivery
Qualifications
  • HNW/UHNW individual tax experience (beyond standard 1040 compliance)
  • Proven ability to both prepare and review complex returns
  • Experience with multi-entity structures and planning strategies
  • Broad tax exposure (1040, 1065/1120, trust, gift)
  • Public accounting background preferred (Big 4 + PCS / family office ideal)
  • Comfortable in a deadline-driven, fast-paced environment
  • CPA required
What You'll Enjoy
  • No heavy business development expectations (strong inbound pipeline)
  • Exposure to complex, high-value work—not repetitive compliance
  • Clear path to Partner; advancement based on performance, not openings
  • More manageable busy season than Big 4 (~60–65 hours peak)
  • Collaborative, execution-oriented culture (hands-on reviewers)
Compensation & Benefits
  • Base salary: $145K–$200K + performance bonus
  • Hybrid flexibility
  • Unlimited PTO + paid holidays
  • 401(k) with fully vested match after 1 year
  • Company-paid life and long-term disability insurance
  • HSA, HRA, and FSA options
  • Modern office + strong team culture
  • Direct exposure to leadership and Partner group
