[job_card.job_description]

Salary: $90,.00 - $,.00 per year

Exciting Opportunity:

  • Manage your own division like a small organization within the company, with full responsibility for results
  • Take on an existing client base with plenty of clients ready for you to serve and expand
  • Potential for high earnings: begin with salary, then transition to production-based pay as your client base grows
  • No overtime required, the tax team does not work extra hours
  • Clear path for annual growth with salary increases as you take on more responsibilities
  • Engage in work beyond standard tax compliance: provide ongoing strategic business advice year-round

Location: This position is based in Fort Collins, CO, with the option for hybrid work allowing 12 days remote once fully established.

Requirements: Must have at least 4 years of public accounting experience focusing on tax (not audit, industry, or government) and hold a Bachelors degree in Accounting. CPA or EA certification is highly preferred (or willing and eligible to obtain).

About Our Client:

Our client is a modern, rapidly growing accounting and advisory firm committed to providing proactive, year-round support to small business owners. They do not conduct audits and operate with a culture of trust, autonomy, and direct problem-solving, prioritizing client satisfaction and smart decisions.

Responsibilities:

  • Manage a division of approximately 4050 clients, overseeing accounting, tax, and advisory services
  • Lead and mentor Staff Accountants: recruit, train, mentor, supervise, and review work
  • Review monthly financial reports ensuring quality, consistency, and timeliness
  • Lead initial strategy sessions with new clients and oversee onboarding through staff handoff
  • Develop trusted relationships with business owners and act as their strategic advisor year-round
  • Monitor client profitability and recommend fee adjustments based on work scope, time, and transactions
  • Provide tax planning, prepare and review tax returns, address tax authorities, and offer tax advice
  • Enhance processes, utilize technology (including AI tools), and enhance efficiency within your division

Qualifications:

  • 4+ years of public accounting experience with significant tax exposure (preferably not solely audit-focused)
  • Bachelors degree in Accounting required
  • CPA or EA certification preferred (or willing and eligible to obtain)
  • Experience in leading teams, reviewing work, and maintaining high standards with a supportive coaching approach
  • Excellent communication skills for client interactions and relationship-building
  • Proactive, independent, and solution-oriented mindset, presenting solutions rather than problems
  • Forward-thinking attitude towards technology adoption for improved quality and efficiency

Benefits:

You will enjoy autonomy, trust, and real accountability without the risk of burnout. The team is skilled, direct, and focused on achieving results. If you value ownership, independence, and creating meaningful relationships with clients (and prefer a hands-off environment), you will thrive and progress rapidly in this role.
