Job Description:
Tax Director needed to own the firm’s tax practice end-to-end — both Compliance and Tax Advisory Services as a member of the firm’s leadership team. You will lead approximately 15 people and serve as one of the firm’s senior technical authorities.
Responsibilities
- Lead, manage, and develop the tax team: directly lead, manage, and hold accountable four pod leads and a team of ~15 professionals across the practice.
- Drive growth: shape the playbook, pricing, methodology, and team for proactive planning and white-glove delivery to top-tier clients.
- Own compliance quality: ensure reviews are done right, deadlines are met, and standards are never compromised.
- Lead high-impact client relationships: serve as the senior client-facing presence for complex engagements and elevate the relationships held by pod leads.
- Build training and QA systems: maintain feedback loops that keep the team sharp and catch issues before they reach clients.
- Serve as the technical authority: maintain both compliance mastery and advisory fluency, leading and teaching while remaining hands-on.
- Sit on the firm’s leadership team, helping shape the practice’s direction — not just its day-to-day operations.

- Proven ability to develop tax strategy and build advisory-level client relationships
Preferred qualifications
- MS in Taxation
- Experience with Canopy, SurePrep, UltraTax CS, or comparable platforms
- Experience with trust taxation, multi-entity structures, captive insurance, or cross-border issues
- Prior experience in an EOS-run organization
- Genuine interest in AI-augmented tax workflows
