Sen resumes to michael@sherwoodsp.com
Tired of being the person who just files returns? This role is for the tax pro who wants to actually advise.
A well-established CPA and advisory firm in the Shelton area is hiring a Tax Manager to join its leadership team. This is a full-service practice with deep roots in construction, manufacturing, and closely held businesses. Translation: real variety, real client relationships, and work that goes well beyond compliance.
Here's what makes it worth a look:
Diverse client base. Individuals, partnerships, S-corps, C-corps. You won't be stuck on the same three accounts all year.
Consulting that matters. You'll advise clients on strategy, not just hand them a finished 1040.
A clear runway. This is a path toward Senior Manager and beyond, not a seat that boxes you in.
Real flexibility. Onsite first so you can learn the team and the clients, then hybrid once you're settled.
What you bring:
CPA (or nearly there)
5 years in public accounting with a strong tax foundation
Construction and/or manufacturing experience is a big plus
A genuine interest in mentoring staff and owning client relationships
The money is strong (140K to 180K base depending on experience, plus bonus), the work is interesting, and the growth is real.
