Position Summary We are seeking a Tax Senior Manager to join our SALT team. The Tax Senior Manager, SALT (Direct Tax) serves as a strategic leader responsible for overseeing complex, multi-service state and local tax engagements and driving long-term client and firm success. This role manages executive-level client relationships, integrates cross-functional services, and applies advanced technical and industry expertise to deliver high-value SALT compliance and advisory solutions. The Tax Senior Manager, SALT acts as a trusted business advisor, develops future leaders, and contributes to portfolio growth, market expansion, and specialty practice development. This position balances exceptional client service with firm priorities while modeling GMCO's values, culture, and commitment to excellence. What you’ll be doing Lead and manage complex, multi-service SALT engagements at the executive level — anticipating deliverable timelines, resolving issues before escalation, and aligning internal resources for seamless execution — ensuring compliance with applicable state and local tax laws, regulations, and firm methodology, and preparing deliverables for shareholder review with accuracy and strategic presentation tailored to the audience. Evaluate and provide expert guidance on state income and franchise tax matters, including nexus determinations, unitary filing positions, apportionment methodologies, tax base rules, combined state tax returns for corporations and pass-through entities, and ASC 740 state tax provisions; serve as a recognized technical authority in these areas and shape technical strategy across specialty SALT engagements. Manage engagement economics with strategic foresight and financial discipline — overseeing pricing, budgeting, billing, scope management, staffing, and workflow efficiency across multiple concurrent complex engagements — optimizing resource allocation and making delivery decisions that balance client needs against GMCO's long-term profitability goals.
