Why this job – TAX MANAGER:
Join this fast-growing energy firm as their Tax Manager to own and modernize the client-side tax preparation process. Reporting directly to the Controller, this newly created position is designed for a self-directed professional who thrives in a hands-on, "build-it" environment rather than a rigid corporate routine. You will bridge the gap between internal accounting data and external tax compliance, rolling forward workbooks and establishing real-time tax visibility across 20+ entities. If you are a motivated public accounting senior or manager looking to step out of traditional tax preparation software and build an in-house function, this is the perfect career move.

-
Manage and consolidate data exported 20+ entities into clean, uniform tax workbooks in real time alongside the monthly close.

Prepare key tax schedules, including depletion and depreciation calculations, tax estimates, and roll-forwards of prior-year workpapers.
-
Partner with third-party CPA preparers by delivering complete client workbooks and reviewing final returns prior to filing.
-
Ensure real-time tax tracking so leadership maintains continuous clarity on the company's tax position.
-
Support tax workflows for new funds as the company continues its expansion.
To Be Successful in This Role, You Will Need:
-
4+ years of progressive tax or accounting experience.
-
Strong partnership tax (Form 1065) background, with exposure to Form 1040 schedule preparation being a plus.
-
Advanced Excel skills and high comfort manipulating, cleaning, and organizing multi-entity datasets.
-
Self-starter mindset with the ability to work independently, roll up your sleeves, and manage processes.
-
Oil & Gas experience is a plus but not required (depletion/depreciation templates and training are provided).
