Tax Director – Austin | $200k–$240k + Equity

8+ Years Public Accounting Experience | CPA

Imagine a tax firm where “busy season burnout” is actually a myth. Where evenings, weekends, and your sanity aren’t sacrificed to spreadsheets. Here, you’ll do the high-level tax work you love, reviewing and signing returns for HNW Individuals and PSC clients, while leading a growing team, influencing firm strategy, and seeing your ideas come to life.

Why this role is different :

  • True work-life balance : Flexible schedule, school pick‑ups, generous holidays, unlimited PTO, and a long‑term path toward a 40‑hour week. Perfect timing as we head into the holiday season.
  • Growth & professional development : The firm is actively acquiring smaller firms over the next few years, giving you opportunities to shape acquisitions, influence strategy, and gain high‑value experience.
  • Equity & profit potential : Options include buy‑in, profit‑sharing, or a mix, tailored to your personal goals.
  • Leadership with impact : Manage a team, drive strategic initiatives, and make meaningful changes beyond client work.

What you’ll do day‑to‑day :

  • Lead and review complex tax engagements for HNW Individuals and PSC clients.
  • Sign‑off on returns, ensuring compliance and quality.
  • Mentor and develop senior and junior staff, shaping the next generation of leaders.
  • Influence firm strategy, participate in acquisitions, and implement process improvements.
  • Collaborate with partners on planning, technical issues, and client deliverables.
  • Who thrives here :

  • Senior CPAs with HNW / PSC experience.
  • Entrepreneurial, ambitious leaders excited to influence and help shape a firm redefining public accounting.
  • Professionals who want to tackle strategic work and mentor staff, without sacrificing life outside the office.
  • If you’re ready for a partner‑level career that challenges and rewards you, without consuming your life, this is your opportunity.

    Resume not ready? Still weighing whether a move makes sense at this stage in your career? That’s normal, senior CPAs rarely make decisions about partnerships or strategic roles over breakfast. Just give Laura a call on 512‑647‑2214.

    She’ll give you the insight you actually need : what the day‑to‑day responsibilities are at this level, how the firm operates in practice, and whether this opportunity aligns with your long‑term goals.

    Laura spends half her time guiding senior CPAs into opportunities that align with their ambitions. The other half? Living in the English countryside, listening to country music, with her faith guiding her through both work and life.
