Tax Lead

It’s a leadership hire in the next chapter of Hare CPAs.

We’ve built a successful firm by delivering exceptional technical work and developing trusted relationships with our clients. Today, demand for our services continues to grow—but like many founder-led firms, we’ve reached a point where capacity, not opportunity, is our greatest constraint.

We’re looking for someone who wants to help us build what comes next. Not someone looking for another tax management position. Someone who wants to build the tax department they always wished they had the opportunity to lead.

That’s why we exist. Tax returns, financial statements, and compliance are important. But they’re not the destination. They’re the foundation that allows business owners to make better decisions, reduce risk, build wealth, create opportunities for their employees, and ultimately build better businesses and better lives. Just as importantly, we believe the success of our clients begins with the growth of our own people.

We are committed to creating an environment where our team members can develop their talents, pursue meaningful careers, and build fuller lives alongside the clients they serve.

If you’re passionate about helping businesses thrive, developing people to reach their potential, and using your expertise to create lasting impact, you’ll feel at home at Hare CPAs.

We intentionally work with clients who value expertise, seek trusted advice, and want long-term relationships—not just tax returns. Our ideal clients are privately held construction contractors and professional service businesses, particularly specialty dental and high-income dental practices, with 15 to 150 employees and complex financial needs. They look to us for tax planning, business strategy, cash flow, forecasting, succession planning, and better decision-making throughout the year.

We choose to partner with growth-minded business owners who appreciate thoughtful guidance, invest in their businesses, and want an advisor who helps them build stronger businesses and fuller lives.

To get there, we need a tax department that delivers exceptional technical work while continuously improving how tax services are delivered. The Tax Lead is a critical leadership position making that vision a reality.

Your mission is straightforward:
Build a tax department that no longer depends on one person. That means developing people, improving systems, leveraging technology, creating technical excellence, and building an environment where clients receive extraordinary value regardless of who is serving them.

You’ll help build a tax department that:

• Delivers exceptional technical work.
• Identifies opportunities—not just tax liabilities.
• Develops outstanding tax professionals.
• Uses technology to eliminate repetitive work.
• Creates systems that become stronger every year.
• Gives clients confidence through thoughtful advice and clear communication.
• Supports the firm’s advisory strategy rather than simply completing compliance work.

Think about client success and how to deliver value—our work starts with the client’s goals and works backward.

You’ll help clients make better decisions by:

• Identifying proactive tax planning opportunities.
• Recognizing opportunities within entity structures, ownership, succession planning, and business strategy.
• Translating complicated tax concepts into practical business advice.
• Building relationships where clients naturally call you before they make important decisions.

Success isn’t measured by the number of returns completed. Success is measured by the value clients receive because of your work.

Think long-term:
We’re not hiring someone to solve next busy season. We’re hiring someone to help shape the next decade of Hare CPAs. You’ll:

• Build systems that continue improving long after today’s projects are finished.
• Develop future leaders within the tax department.
• Help create a scalable tax operation that supports the firm’s long-term advisory strategy.
• Contribute to a culture that values continuous learning and sustainable growth.
