Job Description
Tax Manager – Construction Focus
Compensation : Up to $150k+ base | 8% avg bonus | $3k-$10k profit sharing
Requirements : CPA required | 5-6+ years tax experience | Construction background preferred
Location : Chicago, IL (Hybrid – Flexible, no set office days)
We're a Top 200 firm that's stayed independent while others chase exits
While most CPA firms position for private equity sale, we've spent nearly three decades building something to last. We're 100+ employees strong with consistent organic growth and a young, innovative partner group focused on the long game.
This role is for someone with construction tax expertise who wants to lead complex engagements, build client relationships, and have a clear path to partnership—without the PE rollup drama.
What You'll Do :
- Lead tax engagements for construction companies, contractors, and developers
- Handle percentage-of-completion, job costing, and construction-specific tax issues
- Develop tax strategies for growing construction businesses and multi-entity structures
- Supervise and mentor tax staff while building your own book of business
- Drive business development in construction, real estate, and related industries
What You'll Bring :
Why This Opportunity Stands Out :
Total Compensation :
Total comp typically $165k-$175k+ annually.
This is ideal if you want to build long-term client relationships in construction and value firm stability over short-term exits.
Additional Opportunities : We're also hiring Tax Seniors, Senior Managers, and Tax Directors. Reach out to discuss other opportunities.
Apply : Send your resume to keith.shuler@levelociti.com
