About the Opportunity

A highly respected, growth-oriented public accounting firm in the Nashville metro area is seeking a Tax Director to join its leadership team. This firm has built a strong reputation for delivering exceptional client service while fostering a culture that prioritizes both employee satisfaction and long-term client relationships.

With a stable and loyal client base across a variety of industries, the firm continues to grow through referrals and strategic expansion. Leadership is deeply committed to maintaining a collaborative, supportive environment where professionals can thrive both personally and professionally.

Why This Firm Stands Out

  • Employee-first culture – team members are viewed as the firm’s greatest asset
  • High client and employee retention driven by strong relationships and leadership support
  • Collaborative, team-oriented environment with accessible leadership
  • Sustainable workloads and a focus on long-term success over burnout
  • Consistent growth without sacrificing culture or quality

Key Responsibilities

  • Lead and oversee complex tax engagements including C-Corp, S-Corp, Partnership, and High-Net-Worth clients
  • Provide strategic tax planning, advisory, and compliance services
  • Serve as a key advisor to clients and build long-term relationships
  • Review returns and ensure technical accuracy and compliance
  • Mentor, develop, and lead tax staff and managers
  • Contribute to firm growth through business development and client expansion opportunities
  • Stay current on tax laws and provide guidance on complex tax matters

Qualifications

  • CPA license required
  • 8–10+ years of public accounting experience
  • Proven experience in tax review, planning, and client advisory
  • Leadership experience managing teams and client relationships
  • Strong technical tax knowledge across multiple entity types
  • Excellent communication and relationship-building skills

What’s Offered

  • Competitive base salary + bonus structure (DOE)
  • Flexible work environment (hybrid or onsite options available)
  • Comprehensive benefits package (health, retirement, PTO)
  • Leadership opportunity with influence on firm direction and growth
  • Strong internal support and collaborative team structure

Ideal Candidate

This opportunity is ideal for a high-level tax professional seeking a leadership role within a firm that values:

  • People as much as performance
  • Long-term relationships over short-term wins
  • A positive, team-driven culture with real career impact
