Tax Manager

Remote Tax Manager | Independent CPA Firm | International Practice | Up to $140k + Bonus

Location: 100% Remote (EST, CST, or MST only)

Compensation: Up to $140,000 base + performance bonus up to $10,000

Requirements: 5+ years public accounting tax experience | CPA required | CCH Axcess required | No Big 4

We are an independently owned, full-service CPA firm with decades of history — and we have grown organically and through selective local acquisitions every step of the way. No private equity. No plans for it. The partners who built this firm are still here, still accessible, and still making decisions that are good for the people doing the work.

We are hiring a Tax Manager to join a growing tax practice with a strong international component — cross-border work spanning multiple international markets that most firms of our size simply cannot offer.

Why This Role Stands Out

• No October 15th Crunch — We file returns on time instead of pushing everything to extension. Fall stays manageable here — not a second busy season
• 37.5-Hour Summer Weeks + 5 Summer Fridays — The schedule lightens up meaningfully every summer. Not a rumor, not a pilot — a real, structured benefit
• Busy Season That Stays Reasonable — Hours run 50–55 during busy season, peaking closer to 60 at the height. Managed intentionally with a real end in sight
• Interesting International Work — A large cross-border practice spanning multiple international markets. The kind of exposure most firms this size cannot offer and that will develop your career faster than generalist compliance work
• True Flexibility — Fully remote or a light hybrid schedule if local. No travel required. A number of team members already work fully remote
• Quarterly Career Development Meetings — Structured check-ins with leadership specifically focused on your growth and path forward. Not an afterthought — built into how the firm operates
• Real Partner Track — Decades independent and staying that way. The partner path is real because the decisions stay with the people doing the work
• Close-Knit, People-First Culture — Partners are accessible and engaged. Everyone knows each other. Local volunteering, transparent firm communication, and a genuine family feel

What You Will Do

• Lead and review tax returns across a diverse client base — from closely held businesses to middle market companies
• Manage and review international and cross-border tax engagements across multiple markets
• Own client relationships and serve as the primary point of contact on active engagements
• Identify tax planning opportunities and advise clients proactively
• Mentor and develop senior associates and staff
• Collaborate directly with partners on client strategy and firm growth initiatives

What We Are Looking For

• Active CPA required
• 5+ years of public accounting tax experience with meaningful review and management responsibility
• CCH Axcess experience required
• Individual and corporate return experience — closely held to middle market
• International or cross-border tax exposure a plus
• Regional or mid-size firm background preferred — Big 4 candidates are not the right fit here
• Self-directed and comfortable working in a remote environment

What We Offer

• Base salary up to $140,000, commensurate with experience
• Performance bonus — up to $10,000
• Medical — 100% employer-paid for single coverage
• 401(k) — 3% Safe Harbor match
• 3–4 weeks PTO + 1 week personal time
• 5 Summer Fridays + 37.5-hour summer weeks
• Quarterly career development meetings with leadership
• Professional development and networking opportunities fully supported
• Real, defined partner track
