Senior Tax Manager (Remote)

Senior Tax Manager – Future Tax Director

Remote With Preference for candidates within 2–4 hours of Dallas

You’ve built your technical skills. You’ve managed teams.

Now you’re ready for your next move — one where you’re not just another cog in the machine but a key player in shaping the future of a firm that’s doing things differently.

Our client is a modern, fast-growing CPA firm that delivers tax strategy, outsourced accounting, and year-round advisory to SMB entrepreneurs across the U.S. They’re not a traditional accounting shop, and this isn’t a traditional tax manager role.

This is a high-visibility leadership seat with a clear path to Tax Director by year-end.

If you’re tired of tax season chaos, chasing clients, and being siloed from strategy, this may be the opportunity that redefines your career trajectory.

What You’ll Be Doing

• Leading the execution of business and individual tax engagements, especially 1120S, 1065, and related 1040s.
• Managing the full tax lifecycle — strategy, compliance, planning, and advisory — with support from a hybrid team, including offshore preparers.
• Overseeing and evolving systems and workflows (Karbon + ProConnect).
• Coaching and mentoring tax staff while holding the team accountable for performance and process.
• Providing clients with strategic insight to support growth, mitigate risk, and maximize outcomes.
• Building strong relationships across the accounting, finance, and wealth teams to deliver holistic planning solutions.
• Acting as the internal integrator and future tax leader, bridging the gap between vision and execution.

What We’re Looking For

• CPA, EA or JD designation required.
• 7+ years of recent public accounting experience, ideally with a mid to large-sized firm.
• Deep expertise in partnership and S-Corp taxation, along with complex structures and high-net-worth individuals.
• Prior experience managing a remote and overseas team.
• Proven leadership ability and a high standard of operational execution.
• Strong communication skills and an ability to lead with clarity, structure, and accountability.
• Experience with Karbon and Intuit ProConnect is a plus.

This Role Is for You If You…

• Are energized by growth, systems, and leadership — not just cranking out returns.
• Enjoy being part of a driven, high-performing culture that values excellence, solving complex client problems while balancing the personal lives of your staf/team with laser-like intentionality.
• Prefer action and ownership over titles and red tape.
• Have the maturity and humility to lead with EQ, not ego.
• Want to help build something meaningful — not just work a job.

Why This Matters

This isn’t about slotting into a box.

It’s about stepping into a firm that’s rewriting the rules of public accounting and taking a leadership role in that journey.

You’ll shape process, lead people, and influence outcomes. And if you’re the right fit, you’ll step into the Tax Director seat before year’s end.
