Tax Director

Distinct | North America
Austin, TX Full Time
POSTED ON 10/27/2026
AVAILABLE BEFORE 11/26/2026

Tax Director | Direct Partner Track | $200k to $240k Equity

8 Years Public Accounting Experience | CPA Required


Making Partner isn't always about ability.


More often than not, it's about timing.


At plenty of firms, the only way up is waiting for someone else to step aside.


This firm is different.


They're growing through acquisitions, expanding their service offering and bringing on new clients, so progression is being driven by growth rather than retirement. If you're ready for the next step, they're willing to create it.


As Tax Director, you'll spend more time doing the work that really makes a difference. Building trusted client relationships, mentoring the team, helping shape the firm's direction and influencing the bigger decisions.


You'll still stay close to the technical side through review and sign off, but you won't spend your days buried in tax returns.


One of the things that stood out to me is the Owner's mindset.


The goal isn't to build the biggest firm.


It's to build a firm where people can have successful careers without work taking over their lives.

Flexibility isn't treated as a perk. It's simply how they operate. They're also working towards making 40 hour weeks the norm rather than the exception.


Alongside a genuine route to Partnership, there's equity potential, profit sharing, unlimited PTO, medical, dental and vision insurance, plus a flexible hybrid schedule.


If you've reached the point where you want more influence, more autonomy and a clear path to ownership, this is well worth a conversation.


The biggest career decisions rarely start with an application.


They usually start with a 10 minute conversation.


If you'd like one, call me on 512-647-2214 or find Laura Serena Rose at Distinct North America on LinkedIn.


No pressure, no rehearsed sales pitch, just an honest chat about whether this opportunity deserves your attention.
