Tax Manager

Overview

Tax Manager | $130,000 – $180,000 | San Francisco, CA (Hybrid)

Let’s cut to the chase: tax isn’t usually described as thrilling. Most roles read like a stack of forms, deadlines, and a caffeine-fueled slog through busy season. But the truth is, whether you enjoy your work or just endure it comes down less to the tax code and more to the people, the culture, and the freedom to do your job well.

This San Francisco-based firm gets it. They’ve built a place where collaboration, respect, and flexibility aren’t just buzzwords, they shape every workday. Busy season happens, of course, but it doesn’t come at the expense of your life, your sanity, or your ability to enjoy your city.

You’ll lead tax engagements across individuals, passthroughs, and small business clients, bringing your experience, judgment, and curiosity to the table. This is a role where strategy matters as much as spreadsheets, and where your team actually wants your insight, not just your hours.

• Hybrid setup with office presence in San Francisco
• Salary: $130,000–$180,000, depending on experience
