Tax Manager

Build Something Bigger Than a Traditional Tax Role

At Trueline, we believe the best accounting professionals don’t just want to prepare returns — they want to help shape strategy, build systems, advise clients, and create something meaningful.

We’re growing our tax and advisory practice and are looking for a senior tax leader who wants more than a traditional public accounting role. This is an opportunity to step into a highly visible position where you’ll help architect and scale a modern tax function focused on advisory, client relationships, and long-term growth.

If you’re currently in public accounting and feeling limited by bureaucracy, unclear partner-track timelines, or rigid corporate structure, this role offers the chance to make a real impact in a flexible, entrepreneurial environment.

What You’ll Do

• Lead advanced tax planning and advisory engagements for closely held businesses and high-net-worth clients
• Review complex business tax returns including S-Corps and Partnerships
• Build and improve tax workflows, systems, and processes
• Mentor and support junior tax staff
• Collaborate closely with leadership and accounting/advisory teams
• Help shape the long-term direction of the tax practice
• Serve as a trusted year-round advisor to clients

What Makes This Opportunity Different

• Remote-first, highly flexible work environment
• Significant autonomy and decision-making authority
• Opportunity to build processes instead of inheriting outdated systems
• Entrepreneurial, growth-oriented culture
• No requirement to bring a book of business
• Real leadership and ownership upside
• Collaborative environment focused on responsiveness, trust, and client value

What We’re Looking For

• Active CPA license required
• 6+ years of public accounting experience
• Strong business tax and advisory background
• Experience with closely held businesses and/or high-net-worth clients
• Strong communication and client relationship skills
• Comfortable operating in evolving, fast-paced environments
• Proactive, solutions-oriented mindset
• Leadership or mentorship experience preferred

Compensation & Benefits

• Competitive compensation package targeting approximately $130K–$170K total compensation
• Bonus and profit-sharing opportunities
• Long-term leadership and potential ownership path
• Flexible remote work environment
• High-autonomy culture with strong work/life flexibility

Preferred Locations

Strong preference for candidates located in or near:

• St. George, UT
• Cedar City, UT
• Salt Lake City, UT
• Las Vegas, NV
• Phoenix / Scottsdale, AZ

This role is primarily remote, with occasional in-person collaboration expected.

Ideal Backgrounds

This role may be especially appealing to:

• Tax Managers or Senior Tax Managers at regional CPA firms
• CPAs frustrated with unclear partner-track opportunities
• Advisory-focused tax professionals seeking more influence and autonomy
• Former small firm owners or solo practitioners looking for support and stability
• Entrepreneurial accountants who want leadership upside without running an entire firm themselves
