Tax Manager – Private Client / HNW
Denver, CO (Tech Center) | Hybrid (typically 1 day from home)?$106,000 – $145,000 + ~8% annual bonus?Flexible time off | Balance fund reimbursement ($1,200 annually)
“When your clients think long term, your firm should too.”
This is a Private Client Tax Manager role where your work genuinely matters.?You’ll advise high-net-worth individuals, families, and closely held businesses on complex tax planning, trusts, and estates, the kind of advisory work that shapes legacies, not just returns.
If you’re tired of endless compliance cycles and want to work with clients who value strategy, this is the shift you’ve been waiting for.
You’ll join a team that treats private client tax as relationship-based, not transactional. The conversations are deeper. The work is smarter. And the firm’s approach to flexibility and balance is the real deal.
Why this role stands out
You’ll work with HNW individuals and family groups, managing everything from multi-generational planning to estate and trust work that keeps your skills sharp and your days varied.?You’ll have real autonomy to lead your client relationships, not just process their returns.?You’ll collaborate with experienced partners who encourage ideas, mentorship, and curiosity.?And you’ll do it in a culture that quietly outperforms the industry without losing its humanity.
Where this could take you
You’ll be stepping into a career, not a position.?In the next few years, you could grow into Senior Manager or Director, or carve out a technical leadership path within private client tax.?Either way, you’ll be working with clients who see you as a trusted part of their financial story, not just their accountant.
Firm culture in three words
Discreet. Trusted. Balanced.?They close early around the holidays, they celebrate the wins quietly, and they believe good people do their best work when they’re respected, not monitored.
Who thrives here
Someone who enjoys meaningful client relationships and the intellectual side of tax.?Someone who values independence but thrives in a collaborative, high-performing team.?If you’re drawn to detail, nuance, and people who think beyond the spreadsheet, you’ll love it here.
Not ready with a resume? Or want a bit more information before applying? That’s fine.?Apply the old-fashioned way, or simply reach out to me on LinkedIn or through the Distinct Recruitment website. I’ll happily talk 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. It’s not about filling gaps. It’s about finding a fit that lasts.
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.
