Senior Tax Manager | CPA Firm | Hybrid | $125,000 – $150,000 | Novato, CA
Most CPA jobs promise “growth.” Translation: you’ll be stuck grinding returns until someone retires.
This Novato firm is different. Growth here isn’t a carrot on a stick, it’s built into the culture. If you’re good, you’ll be noticed. If you want to lead, you’ll get the chance. Simple as that.
Why this role actually matters:
- You’ll mentor and lead staff without drowning in bureaucracy
- You’ll review complex returns that sharpen your technical edge
- You’ll build real client relationships (not just tick boxes for a faceless portfolio)
- You’ll get exposure to leadership and genuine partnership track, no smoke and mirrors
What’s on offer:
- $125,000 – $150,000 base salary, plus bonus potential
- Hybrid Bay Area setup (be in Novato a couple of days a week)
- Work that challenges you without devouring your personal life
- A team that invests in you, not just your billable hours
Who you are:
- CPA with 6+ years in public accounting
- Comfortable guiding staff and clients alike
- Strong experience with individuals, partnerships, and closely held businesses
- Based in the Bay Area and looking for long-term stability with real upside
If you’re tired of career promises that never materialize, this is where they actually do. Apply now, or let’s have a conversation first. And if you’re on the fence? Apply anyway. We work with firms that hire for potential as much as polish.
