What are the responsibilities and job description for the Tax Manager position at Distinct Recruitment?
Less firefighting, more control over your work
You’ve probably just come out of a busy season where one of these felt familiar.
Still reviewing returns late into the evening because there wasn’t enough support around you
Spending more time fixing work than actually advising clients
Being the Manager, but still doing prep just to keep things moving
This firm felt that too.
That’s exactly why they’re hiring.
Not to plug a gap.
Not because someone left.
Because they don’t want to go through another season like that again.
The role
You’ll step into a position where you’re trusted to own your work and your client relationships.
You’ll work across a mix of individual and business clients, mainly owner managed businesses and flow through entities, with real involvement in planning rather than just compliance.
Day to day:
Managing client relationships directly
Reviewing and overseeing tax work
Getting involved in planning and advisory conversations
Working alongside leadership on more complex matters
Leading junior staff and helping them improve
Supporting the growth of existing client relationships
You’re not hidden away here.
You’re visible, trusted, and expected to think for yourself.
What they’re looking for
4 years in public accounting within tax
CPA, EA, or working towards
Comfortable speaking with clients without needing a script
Clear communicator who can keep things simple
Someone who takes ownership rather than waiting to be told
Why this one stands out
This isn’t a firm trying to fix a broken culture.
They’ve grown steadily, retained their people, and built long term client relationships without burning the team out.
You’ll be joining a team where you’re trusted to do your job properly, not micromanaged, and where your role actually matches your title.
What’s on offer
Competitive salary
Bonus structure including incentives for bringing in work
Open PTO for professional staff
Flexible working environment
401k with match and profit sharing
Full health, dental, and vision cover
Paid holidays and additional benefits
The honest bit
If you’re happiest keeping your head down and just getting through the work, this probably isn’t for you.
If you want to be more involved, have proper client exposure, and work somewhere that treats you like a professional, it’s worth a conversation.
You don’t need to tick every box.
Applying isn’t a commitment. It’s just a conversation.
