The Tax Director will serve as the senior tax leader for the Family Office, overseeing all tax matters across a complex structure of partnerships, trusts, operating entities, gift vehicles, and a private foundation. The role is approximately 60% compliance oversight and 40% strategic planning . All tax preparation is outsourced to a Big Four firm; this individual will lead review, coordination, and strategic direction.

Responsibilities

  • Review partnership returns (Forms 1065) and K‑1 reporting with significant flow‑through impact to UHNW individual returns (Form 1040).
  • Oversee fiduciary returns (Forms 1041), gift tax filings (Form 709), and private foundation reporting (Form 990‑PF).
  • Manage quarterly estimates, withholding, and tax projections.
  • Ensure consistency and accuracy across partnerships, trusts, and individual filings.
  • Lead tax planning related to investment structuring, transactions, liquidity events, and multi‑state considerations.
  • Partner with estate planning advisors on trusts, GRATs, and gifting strategies.
  • Advise on philanthropic and foundation‑related tax matters.
  • Serve as the internal tax expert to principals and senior leadership, translating complex technical issues into practical guidance.
Qualifications
  • CPA preferred
  • 12+ years of tax experience in public accounting, family office, private equity, or investment management.
  • Deep expertise in partnership taxation and flow‑through structures.
  • Strong experience with ultra‑high‑net‑worth individual, trust, estate, gift, and private foundation taxation.
  • Experience managing and reviewing outsourced tax providers (Big Four preferred).
  • High discretion, strong technical skills, and ability to operate in a confidential, high‑trust environment.
