Tax Manager | Top 200 Independent CPA Firm | True Work-Life Balance

Location: 100% Remote (Must be located in the US & authorized to work)

Compensation: Up to $165k base + discretionary bonus + partner-track equity opportunity

Requirements: 5-6+ years public accounting tax experience | 1-2 years as a Manager | CPA Required

We are a regionally rooted, independently owned CPA and advisory firm with nearly five decades of history—serving privately held businesses, entrepreneurs, high-net-worth individuals, and a broad range of corporate and nonprofit clients across the country. We are hiring a Tax Manager to join a growing, high-performing tax practice—fully remote—with a clear path for someone who wants to build a career, not just fill a seat.

This is a firm that has earned its reputation the old-fashioned way. Ranked among the Top 200 accounting firms in the U.S. every year since 2020, recognized as a "Best of the Best" firm by Inside Public Accounting, and sitting at a 4.5/5 star Glassdoor rating—the culture here is not a talking point, it's the product of 200 people who actually want to be there.

Median employee tenure exceeds 7 years.

And if you've been watching firms around you get absorbed by PE platforms or rolled up into national aggregators—this is the alternative. This firm is 100% independently owned, has no interest in private equity, and intends to keep it that way.

Why This Opportunity Stands Out
  • Genuinely Flexible Remote Work: The firm has 27+ fully remote employees outside of its home market.
  • Summer Hours (32 Hours Per Week): Every summer, the firm shifts to a 32-hour workweek, firm-wide.
  • Busy Season That Stays in Its Lane: February and March run 45-50 hours. April peaks at 50-60 max.
  • Partner Track That's Actually Real: The firm promotes from within and has the tenure data to prove it.
  • Quarterly Fly-Outs for Remote Employees: The firm flies remote employees in at least once per quarter for company meetings and events—all expenses paid.
  • Sabbatical Leave: A genuine sabbatical program for long-tenured employees.
Benefits Worth Mentioning
  • Generous PTO
  • 9 paid holidays
  • Sabbatical leave eligibility
  • 32-hour summer workweeks
  • Full reimbursement for CPA exam fees and continuing education
  • Quarterly all-expenses-paid remote employee fly-outs
  • Company events throughout the year
Key Responsibilities
  • Review and manage tax compliance and planning for closely held businesses, pass-through entities, and high-net-worth individuals.
  • Lead and develop client relationships with a quality-first approach.
  • Mentor junior and senior staff; contribute to internal training and team development.
  • Identify proactive tax planning opportunities and advise clients on evolving tax law.
  • Collaborate with partners and senior leadership on client strategy and firm growth.
Qualifications
  • Active CPA license required.
  • 5-6+ years of public accounting experience, with meaningful tax review and management responsibility (1-2 years as Manager).
  • Strong background in pass-through entities, closely held businesses, and/or HNW individual taxation.
  • Excellent client communication and relationship management skills.
  • Self-directed and comfortable working autonomously in a remote environment.
