Tax Manager – Chicago
Want the resources of a larger firm but the culture of a boutique one?
This 100-person team in downtown Chicago might be your sweet spot.
The partners here, a lot of them have Big Firm backgrounds, but they set out to build something different, something people actually enjoy being part of. No red tape, no office politics, just a team-first culture where your voice matters and your growth is a priority.
They’ve just opened a brand-new office downtown, and it’s not just a facelift. It’s designed to help people thrive. Dedicated training rooms, wraparound outdoor terrace, open spaces that encourage collaboration. It’s a physical reflection of how they approach their people: with intention.
As a Tax Manager, you’ll be working across a range of clients including S-corps, partnerships, C-corps, individuals and more. They mainly take a generalist approach, so if you like variety and want to keep broadening your skills, this is the place to do it. If you prefer to specialise they’ll carve that out too.
The firm is growing steadily in a smart, values-driven way. They’re bringing in like-minded smaller firms that fit the culture, which means more opportunity for you without getting lost in a massive org chart. There’s also a clear path to partnership here. No politics, no endless waiting. Just a straightforward track based on contribution and potential. Every individual here is valued and part of that and the growth is offering profit sharing to every employee.
They genuinely care about work-life balance too. Hours are reasonable, leadership is approachable, and they make sure their team feels supported personally and professionally.

Not Sure You Meet All the Qualifications? We still encourage you to apply! If you don’t meet every requirement, don’t let that stop you. The firm is dedicated to fostering a diverse, inclusive, and equitable workplace, and we are always looking for talent with a range of experiences. If this role isn’t the perfect fit, we may have other opportunities in public accounting that are a better match.
