The Opportunity

We are seeking a Senior Tax Manager who will begin in a Senior Tax Manager role and grow into expanded Tax Director responsibilities through demonstrated leadership, judgment, and ownership. This is a high-impact position with direct access to firm leadership, meaningful autonomy, and a defined path toward Tax Director within a boutique firm of approximately 20 staff.

In this role, you will operate as a senior leader within a small, hands-on team—not as a layer within a large hierarchy. You will manage complex client relationships, review and sign returns, and take ownership of engagements while expanding your influence into firm-level decisions around pricing, workflow, team development, and operations.

We are seeking a Senior Tax Manager who demonstrates strategic, firm-level thinking—someone who approaches work structurally, understands firm economics and profitability, and can contribute meaningfully to discussions around pricing, workflow, and growth. This role requires the ability to mentor staff and managers, support leadership decision-making, and gradually expand into broader responsibilities that shape how the firm operates and scales.

This position is designed for an experienced tax professional ready to move beyond technical execution and into broader leadership responsibility, working directly with firm ownership in a fast-moving, collaborative environment. This is a client‑facing, signing, reviewing, leadership‑track position.

Work Environment

This is an in-office leadership role designed to support collaboration, client service, and team development.

Extended hours during tax season: ~50+ hours per week
Outside tax season: ~35+ hours per week
Direct access to firm leadership and decision-making

What You’ll Do

Client Leadership & Engagement Ownership

Manage a portfolio of business and individual clients from planning through completion
Lead tax planning and advisory conversations with clients
Review and sign complex returns (1040, 1065, 1120S, 1120, Oregon SALT, multi-state)
Own engagement scope, delivery, and client communication

Technical Oversight & Problem Solving

Resolve complex tax issues and support positions across a range of entity types
Oversee multi-entity and multi-state compliance work
Ensure accuracy, consistency, and high-quality technical execution

Team Development & Collaboration

Mentor and support Associates, Seniors, and Managers in their development
Provide clear, practical technical feedback and review support
Help maintain consistency in workflow and delivery standards across the team

Firm Contribution (Expanding with Scope)

As you grow in the role, you will take on increasing involvement in:

Pricing and engagement scoping
Workflow coordination and capacity planning
Process improvement and operational efficiency
Firm standards and internal best practices

Required Experience

Active CPA license
7–10+ years progressive public accounting experience
5+ years managing complex client engagements
5+ years reviewing and signing tax returns
Strong technical knowledge in 1040, 1065, 1120S, 1120, Oregon SALT, and multi-state taxation
Proven ability to independently manage client relationships
Experience mentoring or supervising staff
Strong communication and practical problem-solving skills
Comfortable in a modern, paperless, boutique firm environment

Experience with 990, 1041, 706, 709, or international reporting is a plus.

Compensation & Benefits

$150,000–$185,000 base salary (DOE), for the Senior Tax Manager role
Compensation increases based on demonstrated performance, expanded scope, and progression into Tax Director responsibilities over time
Performance-based bonus opportunity tied to firm profitability, realization, and leadership impact
Paid vacation, holidays, and comp time
401(k) with employer match
Health and dental insurance
CPE support
Predictable schedule outside of tax season

Please send your resume and a brief note addressing:

Your experience reviewing and signing complex returns
Your leadership experience with staff and managers
