Director - Family Office & Corporate Tax

Director - Family Office & Corporate Tax Other Area(s) Ruston , Louisiana Direct Hire Jun 16, 2026

HGA is hiring a Director – Family Office & Corporate Tax in Ruston, LA.

Reporting to the Chief Financial Officer, the Director – Family Office & Corporate Tax has two initial thrusts. First, the Director leads the tax approach for Primrose Capital, LLC — the Hunt Family Office — and the principals and clients it serves, including the Hunt family entities. Second, the Director leads the tax approach for Hunt, Guillot & Associates, LLC ("the Company") and its related organizations.

Building from these two foundations, partnering with the CFO, the Director will develop a broader practice of similar business-owning and high-net-worth relationships as appropriate, aligned with the Company's long-term relationship model. The CFO and the Director will design and build the operating model. The successful candidate will bring deep, partner-level expertise in ultra-high-net-worth tax, trust and estate planning, complex partnership and pass through structures, and family office operations — paired with the judgment, discretion, and professional polish required to serve as a trusted advisor to principals, their families, and clients.

Partnering with the CFO, design and build the Family Office & Corporate Tax practice end-to-end — technical methodology, workflows, review processes, templates, technology stack, and standard operating procedures.

Recruit, develop, and lead the practice team, including onsite tax staff and outsourced/offshore resources.

Own practice-level performance metrics including realization, utilization, technical quality, client satisfaction, and team development.

Drive technology and automation initiatives, including evaluation and implementation of tax, wealth-reporting (e.g., Addepar), and workflow platforms.

Building from the Primrose Capital and HGA engagements, selectively grow the external client base of similar business-owning and high-net-worth relationships, in alignment with HGA's values and long-term relationship model.

Review and interpret complex K-1s from private equity, venture capital, real estate, hedge fund, and other alternative investment vehicles.

Lead preparation and review of federal and state income tax returns for individuals, trusts, estates, foundations, and closely held entities, including partnerships, S-corporations, and multi-entity structures.

Design and execute sophisticated tax planning strategies for ultra-high-net-worth individuals and families — including generational wealth transfer, charitable structures, GRATs, IDGTs, dynasty trusts, family limited partnerships, and pre-transaction planning.

Advise on entity selection, restructuring, multi-state and nexus considerations, basis and capital account analysis, 1031 exchanges, QSBS, blocker corporations, and similar advanced planning techniques.

Lead federal and state audits, including complex partnership-level examinations.

Maintain current expertise in evolving tax law and proactively communicate planning implications to principals and stakeholders.

Coordinate with external advisors and counsel as needed to deliver integrated planning across legal, tax, and investment disciplines.

Serve as the primary owner of the quarterly and annual estimated tax process for HGA, the Hunt family entities, HGA-related organizations, and select external clients — including calculation, planning, payment coordination, and clear communication to all stakeholders.

Serve as the primary internal lead for HGA tax return compliance, planning, and review across HGA, Primrose Capital, and related Hunt family entities — coordinating and managing larger national accounting firms (e.g., Weaver) for preparation and specialty work as needed.

Develop multi-year tax projections, year-end planning models, and multi-entity cash-flow and estimate scenarios.

Maintain documentation of estimates, deadlines, and planning recommendations with the clarity expected of a family office environment.
