Talent Acquisition Consultant at Distinct Recruitment Senior Tax Accountant | $85,000 – $120,000 | Hybrid | San Francisco, CA

Most tax roles promise “challenging work” and “client variety” but deliver little more than endless compliance checklists. The difference here isn’t the code you apply, it’s the culture you’re part of while doing it.

This San Francisco-based CPA firm is established, trusted, and deeply rooted in the Bay Area business community. They work with a loyal mix of closely held businesses, high‑net‑worth individuals, trusts, and estates. The client base is broad enough to stretch your skills but stable enough to avoid the chaos of firms that chase volume over relationships.

Why this role is worth your attention Hybrid structure: collaborate in‑office when it counts, work remotely when it doesn’t Busy season is steady but sustainable, demanding, not draining Leadership that’s engaged, approachable, and invested in your growth Long‑term clients who look to their CPAs as advisors, not just form‑fillers

What they’re looking for 5+ years of tax experience in public accounting Strong foundation in individuals, partnerships, and corporations (trusts/estates experience a bonus) CPA license (or actively pursuing) Confident reviewing work, guiding staff, and managing client relationships Someone looking for stability and clear growth in a respected Bay Area firm

This isn’t a “remote forever” role, but it’s designed with flexibility, expect to spend part of your week in the San Francisco office, with the rest managed on your own terms.

If you’re ready to step into a role where your work is noticed, your clients are loyal, and your career has room to grow, this could be a great fit.

If you’d like to know more about this position, just hit the apply button and I’ll be in touch. If you’re browsing and your resume hasn’t been updated in ages, no problem! Give me a call or connect with me on LinkedIn (Jamie Egglenton at Distinct North America), and we’ll take it from there.

If you’re hesitating because you don’t tick every box, apply anyway. We support CPA firms in building diverse, inclusive, and equitable workplaces. And if this role isn’t the one, the next one might be.

Base pay range $85,000.00/yr - $120,000.00/yr
