Tax Manager – Office Lead; Principal in Charge

We are toogeza
, a Ukrainian recruiting company focused on hiring talent and building teams for tech startups worldwide. People make a difference in the big game, and we may help find the right ones. Currently, we are looking for a Tax Manager – Office Lead (Principal in Charge) for Numica
.

Numica is a venture-backed accounting technology company building a modern alternative to the traditional accounting firm model. The company acquires established local CPA practices from retiring owners and helps them grow through better technology, AI-assisted workflows, operational support, and access to the resources of a larger organization.

Rather than rebuilding these firms from scratch, Numica keeps the client relationships, teams, and local expertise that made each practice successful, while introducing modern tools and processes that reduce repetitive work and allow accountants to spend more time on judgment, advisory, and client relationships.

The company is growing quickly through acquisitions across the U.S. and already serves thousands of clients across New York, New Jersey, Florida, and other markets.

This position is Sacramento-based
. The role requires primarily onsite presence during the initial transition period, with the possibility of a more flexible or hybrid setup once the practice is established.

Step in as the principal in charge of an established accounting practice with an existing book of loyal clients and an experienced team already in place — backed by the capital, technology, and operational support of a growing platform.

You are not building a practice from a cold start. You are taking the helm of a real business, preserving what already works, strengthening client relationships, developing the team, and helping the practice transition to a more modern and efficient operating model.

This is a true player-coach role
. You will own the practice’s clients, quality, delivery, and people day to day, while remaining hands-on with tax work where senior judgment and expertise are needed.

Depending on your experience, the scope may start with one practice and expand to multiple offices over time.

• Lead the practice as Principal in Charge — own its clients, quality, delivery, people, and overall performance.

• Manage and develop the team — supervise day-to-day work, review deliverables, coach staff, provide feedback, and support their professional growth.

• Own client relationships — become the trusted advisor clients rely on through the ownership transition and beyond.

• Review and sign off on tax work as the senior technical authority across business and individual clients.

• Stay hands-on where your expertise matters most — including tax review, planning, advisory, and complex client situations.

• Protect and grow the client base — maintain strong retention and client satisfaction while ensuring continuity through the transition.

• Improve operational efficiency — help implement better workflows, processes, and technology across the practice.

• Drive technology adoption — work with Numica’s internal team to introduce modern, AI-assisted tools that reduce repetitive work and allow accountants to spend more time on judgment and client advisory.

• Take ownership of the team structure — identify where additional resources are needed, participate in hiring, and make changes as the practice evolves.

• Partner on future growth — over time, contribute to business development, referrals, upselling, and broader growth initiatives with support from the wider Numica organization.

For more senior candidates, there is an opportunity to take responsibility for multiple nearby practices and grow into a broader regional leadership role.

• Active CPA strongly preferred; experienced EAs will…
