About the role
You’re already a Tax Manager. So why move firms just to do the same job somewhere else? This one gives you a few good reasons. More progression without donating your evenings to the cause. That’s the appeal here. You’ll join a regional CPA firm that’s big enough to offer genuine career progression, but still feels small enough that people know who you are. And because work life balance shouldn’t just be something written on the careers page, there’s generous PTO and busy season hours are capped at 55 per week. There’s genuine room to progress, a broad commercial client base, generous PTO and, rather importantly, a 55 hour cap during busy season. The other nice bit is variety. This is a proper generalist Tax Manager role, working across manufacturing, real estate, nonprofits and professional services. You’ll handle 1120s, 1040s, 1065s and 1041s, provide technical support to clients, and get involved with billing, scheduling and project management. It’s a top rated regional firm with the opportunities that brings, without turning your role into one tiny corner of tax or expecting the office to become your second home.
How to apply:
Here’s the part most people get wrong: you don’t need to tick every box to introduce yourself. The apply button is not legally binding. Worst case? We chat, decide the timing isn’t right, and you carry on. Best case? You bag yourself a fantastic new position. Prefer the human touch? Splendid. Ring me up. I’m at. Sometimes Indeed hides my number. If they’re sneaky like that, you'll find my details on LinkedIn. I’m Georgina Ross at Distinct North America. Also, I get it can be hard to talk with the fear of your Managing Partner walking past your office. I’m around early (6am EST) and after-hours too.
Before you apply
Applying takes about a minute. These four things decide how fast it moves after that.
Your profile is current
It's what we read first. Occupations, seniority and locations matter more than a long history.
Two examples you can talk through
Not a portfolio — just two pieces of work where you can explain the decisions and what you'd change.
A number in mind
What you're on now and what would make you move. We negotiate better when we know both.
Your notice period
Employers plan around it, and it's the question that stalls offers most often.
Once you apply, someone reads it and calls you before anything reaches the employer — usually within two working days.
