What are the responsibilities and job description for the Senior Tax Manager position at Distinct | North America?
Senior Tax Manager
Location: Denver, CO (Hybrid)
Compensation: $165,000 – $210,000
Work Schedule: Hybrid, genuinely flexible
You don’t leave a good firm for a slightly better salary.
You leave when you start questioning how stable it really is.
Layoffs. Private equity pressure. Constant change dressed up as “growth.”
This isn’t that.
Why make the move?
- Stability that’s been tested, not promised
No layoffs since the financial crisis. And even then, decisions were measured, not reactive
- No private equity noise
No external pressure. No short term decision making. Just long term thinking
- Complex, interesting client work
You’ll work across real estate, ASC 740, and energy clients, with genuine advisory exposure
- Growth done properly
Strategic acquisitions, not rushed expansion. Culture stays intact
Where could this lead?
If you want Partner, it’s there.
If you don’t, that’s equally fine.
Over the next few years, you’ll deepen client relationships, step further into advisory, and have real influence over how work is delivered.
Culture (in three words):
Intentional. Loyal. Selective.
Example?
They hire carefully, not quickly. And people stay because of it.
Who thrives here?
- Strong technically, but commercially aware
- Experience in real estate, ASC 740, or energy
- Values consistency over chaos
- Not chasing the next job every year
This suits someone thinking long term. Not someone chasing short term wins.
Not ready with a resume? Or just want a bit more clarity before applying? That’s completely fine.
You can reach out to me directly on LinkedIn or through the Distinct Recruitment website. I’ll talk you through the role, the firm, and what this move could actually look like for you before you make any decisions.
I’m Abigail Stephen at Distinct Recruitment. I focus on where people genuinely do well, not just where they can do the job. The aim isn’t to fill a role. It’s to help you land somewhere that fits and still feels right a year from now.
And outside of work, I’m big on balance. Pilates, travel, skiing. Not because it sounds good on paper, but because work should support your life, not take it over. This role is built with that same thinking in mind.
Salary : $165,000 - $210,000
