Job description
100% Remote | $140K–$165K+ | No Traditional Busy-Season Hours
Why This Opportunity Stands Out
100% remote anywhere in the U.S.
No traditional tax busy-season hours
Discretionary annual bonus
401(k) with 4% company match
Health and dental insurance
Paid CPE and professional license renewal
PTO and firm holidays
Direct access to firm leadership
We are partnering with a growing CPA firm to hire an experienced Senior Tax Manager . This is an opportunity for someone who enjoys the technical side of tax and leading people but wants a more sustainable alternative to the traditional public accounting grind.
You’ll serve as a senior technical tax resource while managing and developing a team. The right person will be technically strong, organized, good with people, and comfortable taking ownership of work from preparation through final review.
What You’ll Do
Perform final review of individual and business tax returns
Prepare more complex returns when needed
Review California and multi-state returns
Work extensively with S-Corporations, partnerships and individual taxation
Assist with tax planning, estimates and technical research
Serve as a technical resource for other members of the tax team
Prioritize assignments and keep work moving through completion
Manage, coach and develop professional staff
Work closely with remote and offshore team members
Coordinate tax and accounting/bookkeeping workflow
Help improve processes, procedures and overall team performance
Monitor deadlines, quality and budgets
The position is approximately 80% review and 20% hands-on preparation . This is not a position for someone who only wants to review work — you’ll still jump into complex returns when needed.
What We’re Looking For
5+ years of progressive public accounting and tax experience
Recent, meaningful California tax return preparation and review experience with both individual and business returns
Strong S-Corporation, partnership, individual and multi-state tax experience
Experience taking tax work from preparation through final review
Proven direct people-management experience , ideally managing 2–3+ employees
Experience coaching, developing and prioritizing work for a team
Active CPA strongly preferred; experienced EA candidates may also be considered
Strong understanding of financial statements and underlying accounting/bookkeeping
UltraTax experience is a plus
Experience working with remote or offshore professionals is a plus
Strong communication skills and emotional intelligence
Collaborative, hands‑on approach with a low‑ego leadership style
Schedule
This is a fully remote U.S.-based position , but working hours are important. Candidates need to be available primarily 9:00 AM–5:00 PM Pacific Time and have some flexibility when coordinating with an international team.
The Opportunity
This firm is looking for someone who wants to remain challenged technically and continue progressing professionally without sacrificing work‑life balance.
You’ll have meaningful responsibility for tax quality, planning and team development while working in an environment that does not require traditional public accounting busy‑season hours .
If you’re a strong public accounting tax professional who enjoys being the technical resource and developing people — but you’re ready for a more sustainable schedule — we’d like to hear from you.
