    Head of Tax (CPA Required)
    New York, NY (On-Site)
    $150,000 + Bonus + Equity

     

    Position Overview

    We are seeking a highly experienced CPA with strong tax expertise to lead the tax function while acting as the central financial authority across multiple businesses.

    This is a unique hybrid role combining Head of Tax and Personal CFO responsibilities. You will oversee all tax operations, review and sign off on filings, and provide clear financial visibility across a portfolio of companies.

    This is not a 9–5 role — it requires full ownership of the function, with someone who is hands-on, detail-oriented, and owns outcomes end-to-end.

    Key Responsibilities

    Tax Leadership

    • Lead and manage the full tax function across multiple entities
    • Review, finalize, and sign off on all business and individual tax returns
    • Serve as the signing CPA on filings
    • Oversee and guide a team of accountants preparing returns
    • Handle complex tax scenarios and client-facing matters

    CFO / Financial Oversight

    • Act as the personal CFO to the owner across multiple businesses
    • Review financial statements (P&L, balance sheets) for accuracy and completeness
    • Provide clear, consistent monthly financial reporting
    • Track profitability, cash flow, and overall financial performance
    • Deliver straightforward insights on where the business is making or losing money

    Requirements

    • CPA license required
    • 8–10+ years of tax experience (business and individual returns)
    • Strong experience reviewing and signing off on tax filings
    • Experience working with multiple entities or complex structures
    • Strong understanding of financial statements and reporting
    • High attention to detail and accountability
    • Comfortable operating in a fast-paced, high-volume environment
