Tax Manager – Denver, CO
Hybrid. $130k to $160k base plus bonus.
You know what’s worse than busy season?
A busy season that feels never ending, where you grind through 70 hour weeks, only to realize you’re still in the same chair, in the same role, another year older and no closer to the future you actually want.
That’s not this job.
Here’s why.
This firm actually plans for busy season. They cap hours. They throw in extra days off around holidays. They believe in getting work done without burning people out.
You’ll get a client portfolio that’s diverse and technically challenging, big enough to keep you sharp, not so big that it swallows you whole.
Corporate, partnerships, multistate. A little complexity, a lot of variety.
And progression? It’s not an illusion. Senior Manager is mapped out in front of you with support, mentorship, and real opportunities to step up. If you’re good at what you do, you’ll see that recognition in black and white.
The culture here?
Collaborative. Balanced. Human.
Partners who know your name. Teams that back you, not compete with you. Leaders who ask what you want from your career and then help you get there.
Who thrives here?
Ambitious tax professionals who want their independence respected and their work recognized. People who are tired of being another cog and want to actually shape the work they do.
If that’s you, let’s talk.
Not ready with a resume? Or want a bit more info first? That’s fine. Reach out to me here on LinkedIn or through the Distinct Recruitment website. I’ll walk you through the role, the firm, and where it could take you before you make any commitments.
I’m Abigail Stephen, Recruiter at Distinct. I don’t just look at job specs. I look at people, and where they’ll thrive.
Outside of work, balance for me is Pilates to reset, travel to explore, and skiing to recharge. Because the truth is, you don’t slog through hours for the love of a spreadsheet. You do it for the freedom it buys you. Same principle here.
