About Pagac & Company

Pagac & Company, P.C. has served closely held businesses and high-net-worth families since 1975. We're a second-generation firm with deep technical roots and a forward-looking way of working.

We position ourselves as proactive advisors, not compliance processors. Our clients get CFO-level thinking, and our people get to do that kind of work.

We're fully cloud-based. We use AI-assisted research tools and digital workflows, and we invest in marketing and dedicated administrative support so tax professionals spend their time on technical work, advisory services, and client relationships.

Who you'll work with

• Manufacturers and distributors
• Commercial real estate and mobile home parks, including investors with multi-entity structures
• Professional services firms and entrepreneurial, closely held businesses
• High-net-worth individuals, families, trusts, and estates with complex, multistate returns

You'll see partnership K-1 stacks, basis work, entity planning, and transactions, not just routine compliance.

What you'll do

• Prepare and review complex federal and multistate returns for partnerships, S corporations, C corporations, individuals, trusts, and estates
• Deliver tax planning and advisory work, and research issues into practical answers clients can act on
• Manage and review engagements
• Own client relationships and communicate directly with business owners and families
• Help improve our processes and contribute to firm growth

What you bring

Required

• Active CPA license
• Generally 7+ years of public accounting tax experience
• Strong command of business, complex individual, real estate, multi-entity, and multistate taxation
• Experience preparing and reviewing multistate business and individual returns
• Ability to run engagements and deadlines independently and deliver signature-ready work

Preferred

• MST
• UltraTax CS, Thomson Reuters CS Professional Suite, QuickBooks Online, and cloud workflow systems (comparable platforms considered)
• Genuine interest in AI tools, technology, and process improvement

Above all, we want someone who communicates clearly, solves problems, and wants to build something with a team of experienced professionals.

Base salary of $80,000–$110,000, depending on experience, technical capability, and responsibility, plus performance bonus opportunities.
