Job description
Tax Director / Senior Tax Manager – High-Net-Worth Clients Defined Succession Opportunity | Established HNW Client Book Industry: Public Accounting / CPA Firm Specialty: High-Net-Worth Individual Tax Level: Senior Tax Manager / Tax Director / Partner-Track
Compensation
Competitive and commensurate with experience The Opportunity A well-established CPA firm is seeking an experienced Senior Tax Manager or Tax Director to join its high-net-worth tax practice as part of a planned partner succession. This is not simply another tax compliance position. A long-standing partner is planning to retire in 2027, creating an opportunity for the right tax professional to transition into responsibility for an established book of high-net-worth clients. The incoming professional will work alongside the retiring partner to learn the clients, understand their tax situations, build relationships, and create a smooth transition of the client base. For an experienced tax professional who wants greater client ownership and a clear path toward becoming a senior leader within a CPA firm, this represents a unique opportunity to step into something that has already taken years to build. High-Net-Worth Client Focus The practice serves sophisticated high-net-worth individuals and families with complex tax situations. Individual tax returns can include 50–100 K-1s, requiring someone who is comfortable working with significant pass-through activity, investments, partnerships, and other complex tax matters. The work goes well beyond preparing an individual tax return. These clients need an experienced tax advisor who understands their overall financial picture and can provide proactive guidance throughout the year.
Key Responsibilities
Manage and review complex federal and state individual income tax returns for high-net-worth clients
Oversee returns involving significant K-1 activity, including individuals receiving 50–100 K-1s
Manage relationships with high-net-worth individuals and families
Provide proactive year-round tax planning and advisory services
Analyze partnership, S corporation, investment, trust, and other pass-through tax activity
Coordinate estimated tax calculations and tax projections
Identify planning opportunities and potential tax exposures
Communicate complex tax matters clearly and confidently to clients
Work directly with the retiring partner to transition existing client relationships
Develop a thorough understanding of each client's tax situation, entities, investments, and planning needs
Review work prepared by other members of the tax team
Mentor and develop tax professionals within the firm
Become the primary point of contact for an established group of clients as the succession progresses
Ideal Candidate
The ideal candidate will currently be a Senior Tax Manager, Tax Director, experienced Tax Manager, or newer Partner within a CPA firm and have significant experience serving high-net-worth individuals. We are particularly interested in someone who has already developed the judgment and client presence necessary to become a trusted advisor.
Preferred Experience
CPA strongly preferred
Significant public accounting tax experience
Strong background in high-net-worth individual taxation
Experience reviewing complex individual income tax returns
Experience with returns containing significant numbers of K-1s
Strong understanding of partnerships, S corporations, investments, trusts, and pass-through entities
Experience providing tax planning in addition to tax compliance
Demonstrated ability to personally manage important client relationships
Strong communication and interpersonal skills
Ability to work directly with sophisticated high-net-worth individuals and families
Leadership and staff-development experience
Who Should Consider This Opportunity?
This could be particularly attractive to someone who has reached the Senior Manager or Director level at a larger CPA firm and is asking: "What does my path to Partner actually look like?" You may already be managing sophisticated HNW engagements and client relationships but still be several years away from meaningful ownership of a book of business. Here, the succession need already exists. For the right person, this is an opportunity to combine strong technical tax experience with client ownership, leadership, succession, and long-term career growth.
The Bottom Line
Established CPA Firm. Sophisticated High-Net-Worth Clients. Individual returns with significant K-1 complexity. Existing book of business. Partner retiring in 2027. Defined opportunity to become the trusted advisor responsible for those relationships.
