Overall purpose and responsibilities of the role:

The Director, US Tax & Accounting (title subject to discussion during calibration) will be responsible for preparing and reviewing standard US tax returns, including individual (1040), partnership (1065), S-Corporation (1120-S), and C-Corporation (1120) returns. The role also involves managing client relationships, providing tax compliance support, using QuickBooks for accounting-related tasks, and training junior staff. Experience with estate tax (1041), nonprofit tax (990), and employee benefit plan returns (5500) is an advantage but not required, and candidates may use any established tax software. The ideal candidate is a developing US tax professional with a solid technical foundation who is ready to take on greater responsibility and grow into a leadership role. This is a development hire, with opportunities to take on broader strategic and firm leadership responsibilities over time rather than requiring director- or partner-level experience from day one.
