Seasonal Tax Manager

Work Tax Season on Your Terms

WNA CPAs is seeking an experienced tax professional to join our team for the upcoming tax season in a manager-level review and client service role.

Seasonal managers at WNA carry real client relationships, review complex returns, and provide technical guidance to our staff. You will be trusted with meaningful work from day one, and compensated for every hour you put in.

If you want the challenge and variety of tax work without a year-round commitment, or you are exploring a firm before making a permanent move, this may be the opportunity for you.

• Flexible, self-managed scheduling that supports work-life balance
• Hybrid or fully remote work environment
• Significant autonomy and ownership over your work, priorities, and client relationships
• Unique hourly compensation model—get paid for the time you work
• A clearly defined season—January or February through mid-April
• Direct access to firm leadership and decision-makers
• Opportunities for year-round work for the right candidate
• Meaningful client relationships and advisory opportunities
• Accessible path to partnership

Unlike many public accounting firms, our professional staff are compensated for the time they work. We believe exceptional performance should be rewarded, not penalized. In staff surveys, flexibility is consistently identified as one of the firm’s greatest strengths. Whether you prefer to start your day early, work later in the day, work remote part of the week, or attend important family events, we believe great professionals can also have fulfilling lives outside of work.

At WNA, we trust our professionals to manage their responsibilities, make informed decisions, and take ownership of their work. Our team operates within a clearly defined priority system that provides direction while allowing individuals the flexibility and autonomy to determine the most effective path forward. We believe talented professionals do their best work when they are empowered to think critically, solve problems, and contribute ideas—not simply follow instructions.

This position is ideal for an experienced tax professional who can step into a busy season and immediately add value through review, technical guidance, and client service.

You may be a strong fit if you are currently a:

• Experienced Tax Senior/Supervisor ready to take on review responsibility
• Tax Manager seeking seasonal or reduced-schedule work
• Retired or semi-retired tax professional who still enjoys the work of tax season
• Public Accounting professional between full-time roles
• CPA who wants to evaluate a firm before considering a permanent opportunity

The most successful candidates are technically strong, client-focused, collaborative, and comfortable working with a high degree of autonomy. They take initiative, manage competing priorities effectively, communicate proactively, and don’t wait for someone to tell them the next step. They enjoy being trusted to make decisions, solve problems, and take ownership of outcomes while contributing to the success of the broader team.

The Seasonal Tax Manager prepares and reviews individual and business tax returns during the filing season while serving as a technical resource for staff and clients.

This position performs detailed reviews of the team’s work to ensure quality, thoroughness, and on‑time completion, manages engagement schedules and time budgets, and conducts tax research as needed.

This role requires a proactive professional who can operate independently within the firm’s established priorities while exercising sound judgment, communicating effectively, and taking ownership of client service and project outcomes.
