• Advise on tax implications of investments, restructurings, financings, real estate transactions, partnership activity, and other significant transactions.
• Coordinate with outside tax, legal, accounting, and investment advisors to develop and execute tax strategies.
• Oversee quarterly tax estimates, annual tax filings, financial reporting requirements, and related tax deliverables.
• Participate in estate and wealth-transfer planning, including trusts, asset transfers, reorganizations, and other tax-sensitive structures.
• Review and oversee partnership allocations, equity-related calculations, and other complex tax and accounting matters.
• Support the family's philanthropic and foundation activities, including tax compliance and governance matters.
• Work with the investment and finance teams on tax considerations involving private equity, alternative investments, real estate, and other complex assets.
• Serve as a trusted resource to senior leadership and family representatives on tax-related issues and opportunities.
• Provide direction and mentorship to accounting and tax professionals while maintaining a collaborative, team-oriented environment.

Qualifications:

• CPA required; Bachelor's degree in Accounting, Tax, Finance, or a related field.
• 15+ years of progressively responsible tax experience, including significant work with UHNW individuals, families, partnerships, trusts, and complex entity structures.
• Experience in a family office, private wealth environment, private bank, or major accounting/advisory firm strongly preferred.
• Strong technical foundation in partnership taxation, individual taxation, trusts and estates, and multi-entity tax matters.
• Experience working on sophisticated transactions and tax planning initiatives.
• Ability to work effectively with principals, senior executives, attorneys, investment professionals, and outside advisors.
• Excellent judgment, discretion, communication skills, and attention to detail.
• Comfortable working in a hands-on environment where the role extends beyond tax compliance into planning, analysis, and transaction support.
