Job description

Remote Tax Manager -- Wealth Management Firm (1040-Focused)

Location: Remote (Anywhere in the US)

Compensation: $160K--$180K base + Business Development Incentives + Sign-On Bonus

Apply confidentially: [email protected]

We're a nearly 100-year-old, independently owned wealth management and advisory firm serving high net worth families nationwide. We're seeking a Tax Manager who wants meaningful client work without the pressure of public accounting ---no billable hours, unlimited PTO, and a significantly lighter, more controlled busy season.

If you enjoy partnering closely with high net worth clients and want a calmer, more predictable pace, this is a rare opportunity.

Why This Opportunity Stands Out

  • No Billable Hours -- No tracking, no quotas, no pressure.
  • Unlimited PTO -- Real flexibility with a culture that encourages time off.
  • Shorter, Less Stressful Busy Season -- Workload is intentionally managed with far fewer hours than public accounting.
  • Remote Flexibility -- Fully remote for East & Central Time Zones.
  • Stable, Longstanding Firm -- Nearly 100 years old with zero private equity involvement.
  • High Retention -- Average employee tenure of over 9.5 years.
  • Clear Advancement Paths -- Leadership opportunities without forced partner-track pressure.
  • HNW Client Base -- Sophisticated, relationship-driven work.

What You Will Be Working On

A majority of the work revolves around individual returns:

  • Complex 1040s (~80% of workload) for high net worth individuals
  • Pass-Through Entities -- S corps, partnerships, and family investment structures
  • Nice-to-Have Experience: Trust & estate tax (not required)
  • Deliver proactive tax planning and advisory support
  • Maintain and deepen long-term client relationships
  • Collaborate with wealth advisors on integrated tax strategies
  • Mentor junior team members within a supportive culture

What We're Looking For

  • 5--7+ years of tax experience (public accounting or wealth management)
  • Strong proficiency in complex individual tax
  • Experience with pass-through entities
  • Trust & estate experience is helpful but not required
  • CPA or EA required
  • Exceptional communication and client service skills
  • Comfortable working independently in a remote-first environment

Compensation & Benefits

  • $160K--$180K base salary + incentives
  • Sign-On Bonus available
  • Unlimited PTO
  • No billable hours whatsoever
  • Intentionally lighter busy season with significantly reduced hours compared to public accounting
  • Employer-supported medical, retirement match, life & disability insurance
  • Continuing education & full certification support
  • Progressive, people-first culture with strong technology adoption

If you're ready to move away from public accounting intensity and into a stable, client-focused wealth management environment---where busy season is manageable and sustainable---this is the ideal next step.
