Tax Manager

Jobot

A bit about us:

We are a modern public accounting and advisory firm that partners with business owners to simplify the complexities of accounting while providing proactive tax strategies that support long-term success. Since our founding in 2009, we've built our reputation on exceptional client service, strategic tax planning, and year-round advisory support rather than simply preparing returns. Today, we serve more than 3,500 business tax clients, with 90%+ coming from referrals.

Our culture is centered around four core values: client-focused service, clear communication, consistent follow-through, and delivering value every day. We believe accountants should be trusted advisors who help clients make confident financial decisions throughout the year, not just during tax season. As our firm continues to grow, we're looking for professionals who enjoy building lasting client relationships and making a meaningful impact on businesses of all sizes.

Why join us?

Become part of a rapidly growing CPA and advisory firm that has built its success almost entirely through client referrals.
Work with a diverse portfolio of business clients across multiple industries while providing strategic tax planning and year-round advisory services.
Move beyond tax compliance by helping clients with entity structuring, business strategy, cash flow planning, and overall financial growth.
Join a collaborative, client-first culture where communication, responsiveness, and proactive service are valued as much as technical expertise.
Gain exposure to a broad range of services including tax planning, accounting, bookkeeping, payroll, and outsourced CFO advisory.
Enjoy meaningful client interaction and the opportunity to become a trusted business advisor rather than simply preparing returns.
Advance your career within a firm that continues to invest in its people, technology, and long-term growth.
