I’m working with a highly respected, fast-growing regional CPA firm that is expanding its tax practice and looking to add a Tax Director to the team.

This is a fantastic opportunity for someone seeking leadership, strong compensation, and a clear path to Partnership—all within a firm that truly values work-life balance.

Why This Role Stands Out

  • Hybrid flexibility (work from home + office)

  • Competitive compensation + significant bonus potential

  • 5% employer 401(k) contribution

  • Exposure to both SEC and closely held clients across diverse industries

  • Clear, fast-track path to Partnership

  • Supportive, growth-oriented culture

What You’ll Do

  • Lead and review complex tax engagements and returns

  • Serve as a subject matter expert for clients and internal teams

  • Own client relationships and deliver high-quality service

  • Drive tax planning strategies and collaborate with A&A teams

  • Manage and delegate large engagements to tax staff

  • Represent clients before taxing authorities when needed

  • Stay ahead of tax law changes and advise clients accordingly

  • Mentor, coach, and develop high-performing teams

  • Contribute to business development and firm growth

What You Bring

  • 7–10 years of public accounting experience with progressive tax responsibility

  • Experience with complex tax engagements and client advisory

  • Prior experience supervising and developing staff

  • Experience representing clients before taxing authorities

  • CPA license (active and in good standing)

  • Bachelor’s in Accounting (Master’s in Taxation preferred)

What to Expect

  • Occasional travel for client meetings and events

  • Some overtime throughout the year

  • Busy season (Jan–April) may require 55+ hours/week

If you’re ready to step into a leadership role with a clear path to Partnership, let’s connect.
