Tax Manager or Senior Manager - Talent Pipeline (hiring resumes April 15)

Overview Our client service teams are currently in busy season and will begin active interviewing after April 15. We welcome early interest from qualified candidates and will reach out once active hiring resumes. We are looking for a seasoned tax manager or a senior manager to join our business tax team. This practice focuses on closely held family groups and their individual owners. It is relationship heavy and never boring. If you think of yourself as a generalist that leans toward flow-through entities and understands how they flow through to a 1040, this could be a good fit. Work arrangement Our tax and audit teams may be spread across the country, but they work together seamlessly. Unlike many competitors, we have not had an RTO mandate. We would love for this position to be situated locally to the Portland or Seattle market, and we will prioritize those candidates. If you’re interested in moving to Portland, we will help cover the cost. Please be explicit about this on your resume or cover letter.
