Build the Next Generation of Firm Leadership

WNA CPAs is seeking an experienced Tax Manager to play a key role in the future growth and leadership of our firm.

As several long-tenured professionals transition toward retirement, we are looking for a talented tax professional who wants more than simply reviewing returns. This is an opportunity to help shape the future of the firm’s tax practice, mentor staff, build client relationships, and contribute to strategic decisions that impact the direction of the organization.

If you enjoy combining technical tax expertise with leadership, client advisory services, and practice development, this may be the opportunity you’ve been looking for.

Why Professionals Choose WNA

• Flexible scheduling that supports work-life balance

• Hybrid work environment

• Significant autonomy and ownership over your work, priorities, and client relationships

• Unique hourly compensation model—get paid for the time you work

• Approximately 45-hour average workweeks during tax season

• Approximately 36-40 hour average workweeks throughout most of the year

• Direct access to firm leadership and decision-makers

• Meaningful client relationships and advisory opportunities

• Opportunity to influence the future direction of the firm

• Accessible path to partnership

Unlike many public accounting firms, our professional staff are compensated for the time they work. We believe exceptional performance should be rewarded, not penalized. In staff surveys, flexibility is consistently identified as one of the firm’s greatest strengths. Whether you prefer to start your day early, work later in the day, work remotely part of the week, or attend important family events, we believe great professionals can also have fulfilling lives outside of work.

At WNA, we trust our professionals to manage their responsibilities, make informed decisions, and take ownership of their work. Our team operates within a clearly defined priority system that provides direction while allowing individuals the flexibility and autonomy to determine the most effective path forward. We believe talented professionals do their best work when they are empowered to think critically, solve problems, and contribute ideas—not simply follow instructions.

Who Thrives in This Role?

This position is ideal for an experienced tax professional who enjoys both technical tax work and building relationships with clients and staff.

You may be a strong fit if you are currently a:

• Experienced Tax Senior/Supervisor ready to move into management

• Tax Manager seeking greater influence and leadership opportunities

• Senior Tax Manager looking for a clearer path toward partnership

• Public Accounting professional who enjoys mentoring and developing staff

• CPA who wants to play a meaningful role in shaping the future of a growing firm

The most successful candidates are technically strong, client-focused, collaborative, and comfortable working with a high degree of autonomy. They take initiative, manage competing priorities effectively, communicate proactively, and don't wait for someone to tell them the next step. They enjoy being trusted to make decisions, solve problems, and take ownership of outcomes while contributing to the success of the broader team.

Position Summary

The Tax Manager oversees and coordinates tax-related activities within the firm while actively participating in client service, tax planning, and practice development.

This position serves as a technical resource for staff and clients, reviews complex tax returns, mentors team members, and helps ensure the firm’s tax services remain accurate, efficient, and responsive to client needs.

This role requires a proactive professional who can operate independently within the firm's established priorities while exercising sound judgment, communicating effectively, and taking ownership of client service and project outcomes.

The ideal candidate combines strong technical expertise with excellent communication skills, leadership ability, and a proactive approach to client service.
