Job description

Tax Associate / Senior / Manager Partnership Track | Inclusive Culture | Small Firm Reimagined

Our client is a forward-thinking, tax-focused public accounting firm that's redefining what it means to work in public accounting. With 4,000 high-net-worth clients and a dominant market share, this boutique firm offers the career trajectory and benefits of a Big 4 firm with the culture, flexibility, and partnership opportunity of a small practice.

This isn't your typical accounting firm. They're building something different : sustainable, transparent, and truly employee-centric.

Why This Opportunity Stands Out

Clear Path to Partnership Several partners are nearing retirement, creating real and immediate opportunities for advancement. If you're ambitious and want ownership, this is your firm.

Tax-Only Focus No audit work. No attestation. Just tax strategy, planning, and compliance for a sophisticated client base.

Unmatched Work-Life Balance

  • 4 weeks PTO (unheard of for small firms)
  • Fridays end at 1 PM outside of busy season
  • Flexible, hybrid schedule year-round

Compensation That Rewards Performance

  • Competitive salary based on experience (Associates through Managers)
  • 10% performance bonus for hitting chargeable hour targets
  • Full benefits package health insurance, 401(k), tuition reimbursement, and more

    • A Culture Like No Other This firm is transparent, inclusive, and collaborative by design. They listen to their people, value input at all levels, and are intentionally building a sustainable alternative to the burnout culture that plagues public accounting.

    What You'll Do

  • Prepare and review complex tax returns : Schedule C, 1041, 1120, 1120-S
  • Work with high-net-worth individuals, including stock brokers, retirees, real estate investors, and business owners
  • Manage your own book of business with autonomy and support
  • Conduct tax research, planning, and advisory work for sophisticated clients
  • Mentor junior staff and contribute to a collaborative, growth-oriented team
  • Play a meaningful role in shaping the firm's future as it continues to grow

    • Who We're Looking For

    Experience Level : 330 years of public accounting tax experience (anything beyond entry-level)

    Technical Skills

  • Strong knowledge of individual, trust, partnership, and corporate taxation
  • Experience with Schedule C, 1041, 1120, 1120-S
  • Comfortable working with high-net-worth clients and complex tax situations
  • Proficiency with tax software (CCH, UltraTax, Lacerte, or similar)

    • Cultural Fit (This Is Key)

  • You want partnership, not just a paycheck
  • You thrive in collaborative, transparent environments
  • You value sustainability over the grind-it-out mentality
  • You want to be part of something different a firm that's actively working to change the industry for the better

    • Compensation & Benefits

  • Salary : Competitive and commensurate with experience (AssociatesManagers)
  • Bonus : 10% performance bonus for associates and managers who meet chargeable hour goals
  • 4 weeks PTO (more than most firms at this level)
  • Tuition reimbursement
  • Full benefits package : Health insurance, 401(k), and more
  • Fridays end at 1 PM outside of busy season
  • Hybrid / flexible schedule

    • The Bottom Line

    If you're tired of the public accounting grind and want to join a tax-only firm with a real path to partnership, an employee-first culture, and Big 4 benefits in a boutique setting this is it.

    This firm is intentionally small, intentionally different, and growing fast. They're looking for people who want to build something meaningful, not just survive busy season.
