Pitcher Partners Sydney is part of the BakerTilly Network Internationally, and is a Top ten Chartered Accounting firm located in the heart of the CBD. As part of a national network of independent firms, we combine deep expertise with a collaborative approach to help our clients and our people grow with confidence.
When you join us, you’re joining a team with heart. We invest in relationships, support one another, and create an environment where people can thrive. We’re energised by curiosity, fresh thinking, and the opportunity to do things better and we’re always looking for talented people to help shape what’s next.
Due to continued growth, we are seeking a Manager or Senior Manager to join our US & Cross-border tax team within our Private Business and Family Advisory division.
The Opportunity
This is a unique opportunity to play a key role in one of the leading US individual and private client tax practices in Australia.
You will work closely with a diverse, high-value client base including internationally mobile executives, entrepreneurial founders, family groups, and global mobility programs providing tailored, high-touch advice on complex cross-border matters.
Your portfolio will include:
- Australian executives and founders relocating to the US
- High-net-worth US citizens and families based in Australia
You will work directly with clients and Partners, playing a key role in both technical delivery and strategic growth of the practice.
Key Responsibilities
You will:
- Lead end-to-end US & Australian tax compliance, including review and sign-off of complex individual returns
- Drive operational excellence, leveraging technology and AI to improve processes and scalability
- Manage and develop a growing team, including onshore and offshore resources
- Act as a trusted advisor to clients, delivering clear, practical guidance on complex cross-border tax issues
- Build strong client relationships, serving as a key point of contact
- Contribute to growth, including client proposals and new business development
What We’re Looking For
We’re looking for a commercially minded manager who is both technically strong and energised by growth.
You will bring:
- Strong experience in US expatriate / cross-border individual tax
- A proactive, independent mindset with the confidence to take ownership

- Experience working with offshore tax preparation teams
- A demonstrated focus on client service and relationship building
- Strong attention to detail and commitment to high-quality outcomes
- Proven experience mentoring and developing staff
- US CPA or Enrolled Agent qualification
Experience in both Australian and US tax is highly regarded, but not essential. We welcome international candidates with US expat tax experience, with visa and relocation support available.
What we offer
At Pitcher Partners we believe success is better shared. That’s why we invest in the future of every person who works with us, and a culture that supports us all.
We provide comprehensive and ongoing training in US & Australian tax, ongoing professional development programs and clear pathways for advancement within the firm.
There will also be opportunities for international business travel as the need arises, to visit our offshore team and participate in trainings in the US.
Join a team with heart: We actively support your health and social connection with a vibrant culture, great flexible working policy, 18 weeks paid parental leave accessible after 12 months, and much more.
Do work with a purpose: We put a lot of energy into developing meaningful relationships with our clients. It results in a level of trust that creates surprising opportunities for our business and your career.
