Senior Tax Manager

Full-time

Robert Half

A local accounting firm is hiring a Tax Manager who will also serve as the client-facing lead on audit engagements while a staff team performs most of the testing.

Responsibilities

Audit leadership

  • Serve as the primary client contact on audit engagements: kickoff, status updates, findings, and delivery
  • Direct and review the work of audit staff who perform the bulk of the testing
  • Review workpapers for completeness and quality, and manage engagement timelines and budgets
  • Communicate audit findings and issues to client management
  • Coach and develop staff on audit procedures

Tax leadership

  • Manage a portfolio of tax clients, including small businesses, nonprofits, and foreign-owned entities
  • Review business, nonprofit, and individual returns prepared by staff
  • Advise clients on tax planning and respond to notices
  • Supervise and train tax staff

Firm

  • Work directly with the firm owner on staffing, workflow, and client relationships
  • Help balance workload between tax and audit across busy seasons

Qualifications

Required

  • Active CPA license
  • Experience as a tax manager or senior tax professional, with a record of managing client relationships
  • Exposure to audit engagements, including planning, testing, and workpaper review
  • Experience supervising, training, and reviewing the work of staff
  • Strong client communication skills, in writing and in person
  • Comfortable leading engagements without doing all of the fieldwork personally

Preferred

  • Prior experience leading or managing audits, especially for small businesses or nonprofits
  • Familiarity with nonprofit tax and reporting requirements
  • Experience with foreign-owned entities and related filings
  • Public accounting experience at a small or mid-sized firm
  • Based in the New Orleans area
