Tax Manager
Frisco, TX
$120,000 to $145,000
If you want broader client work without the chaos that often comes with it, this is worth a look
A lot of people in public accounting reach a point where they start asking themselves a pretty honest question.
Do I want another year to feel like this?
Usually, it is not because they have stopped enjoying the work. Most still like the technical side, the responsibility, and the problem solving. What starts to wear thin is the pace, the unpredictability, and the feeling that everything has to be done at full speed, all the time.
This is the kind of move people make when they want something more sustainable, without stepping away from good client work or real ownership.
This opportunity is with an independent CPA firm in Frisco, TX that has been helping individuals and small to mid sized businesses for more than 35 years. The work is broader than a narrow compliance seat and covers a mix of tax, accounting, payroll, and wider client support.
This is not one of those firms where everything is split into narrow lanes and you spend your time doing one thing over and over. You will be involved across different areas of client work, build stronger relationships, and become a key part of how the firm looks after its clients.
In a smaller independent firm like this, your contribution is easier to see and your client relationships tend to matter more. For the right person, that creates a role with more variety, more ownership, and a much more grounded feel than a lot of larger public accounting environments.
It is also a smart time to have this conversation. Joining a new firm over the summer gives you the chance to get settled properly, build relationships, and head into the fall deadlines from a much stronger position.
Why this role stands out
A broad role across tax, accounting, payroll, and wider client support
The chance to work closely with clients and become a trusted point of contact
Real ownership of your work inside a smaller independent CPA firm
A more grounded environment than many larger public accounting teams
A practical, relationship led client base with long term value
What you’ll be doing
Managing a mix of tax and accounting work across a varied client base
Overseeing payroll support and related reporting where needed

Supporting clients with financial reporting and practical day to day needs
Building strong client relationships and becoming a go to contact
Helping maintain quality, workflow, and delivery across the firm
Supporting the firm as it continues to grow in a steady, sensible way
What they are looking for
Strong background in public accounting across both accounting and tax
Comfortable taking ownership of a broad, hands on role
Someone who enjoys variety and working closely with clients
Practical, detail focused, and confident in a smaller firm environment
CPA or EA preferred
If you are in public accounting and want a broader role with real ownership, but without the constant chaos that can come with it, this is well worth a conversation.
