Our client, a leading national accounting and advisory firm, is seeking an experienced Partnership Taxation Senior Manager to join their dynamic tax practice. This is an excellent opportunity for a talented tax professional ready to take on increased responsibility and leadership within a growing organization. You will manage complex partnership tax engagements, guide junior team members, and contribute strategic insights to client relationships. The ideal candidate will demonstrate the ability to transition into a leadership role quickly while maintaining the highest standards of technical excellence and client service. This position offers significant growth potential for professionals looking to advance their careers within a collaborative and supportive environment.
Core Responsibilities
As Partnership Taxation Senior Manager, you will oversee the technical and client-facing aspects of partnership tax engagements, ranging from pass-through entity structures to complex multistate and international partnerships. You will prepare and review partnership tax returns, including Form 1065 and related schedules, while ensuring compliance with federal, state, and local tax regulations.
Your leadership responsibilities include mentoring and developing junior tax staff, reviewing their work product, and providing constructive feedback to support their professional growth. You will manage project budgets, timelines, and resource allocation to ensure engagements remain profitable and deliver exceptional value to clients.
You will serve as the primary point of contact for assigned clients, understanding their business objectives and developing tax strategies that optimize their partnership structures. This includes identifying tax planning opportunities, communicating findings clearly to clients, and presenting recommendations that align with their long-term goals.
Additionally, you will stay current with evolving partnership tax regulations and share your expertise with colleagues through training sessions and internal initiatives. You will contribute to developing and refining tax methodologies, templates, and tools that enhance firm efficiency. Your analytical abilities will be essential for addressing novel tax issues and providing well-reasoned guidance on complex scenarios.
Must-Have Requirements
You must possess a bachelor's degree in accounting, finance, or related field, with a CPA license required. You should have a minimum of seven years of progressive experience in partnership taxation, ideally within a public accounting firm or corporate tax department.
Strong technical competency in partnership taxation is essential, including expertise in partnership formation, partnership distributions, partnership allocations, and basis calculations. You must demonstrate proficiency with partnership tax software and Microsoft Office applications, particularly Excel. Experience with engagement management systems and tax research tools is highly valued.
Excellent communication skills are critical, as you will interact regularly with clients and team members at all levels. You must be capable of translating complex tax concepts into clear, actionable guidance for both tax professionals and business clients. Strong organizational abilities and attention to detail are non-negotiable, given the precision required in tax work.
You should possess natural leadership qualities, demonstrating initiative, problem-solving skills, and the ability to motivate others. The ability to manage multiple priorities simultaneously while maintaining quality standards is essential. A commitment to professional development and staying abreast of tax law changes demonstrates the mindset we seek.
Benefits and Perks
Our client offers a comprehensive benefits package designed to support your professional and personal well-being. Medical, dental, and vision coverage are included, along with a 401(k) plan with competitive matching contributions. You will receive paid time off including vacation days, sick leave, and firm holidays.
Professional development is prioritized, with opportunities for CPA continuing education, professional certifications, and conference attendance. The firm supports career advancement through mentorship programs and internal promotion pathways. Flexible work arrangements are available, recognizing the importance of work-life balance.
