Full Job Description
Talent Acquisition Manager

Dallas, TX | Hybrid (Typically 2-3 Days In Office)

Position Summary

The Talent Acquisition Manager will serve as the primary recruiting partner across a multi-state portfolio of accounting firms. This individual contributor role will oversee multiple concurrent searches, manage agency relationships, coordinate hiring activities, and help build scalable recruiting processes as the organization continues its aggressive growth trajectory.

While the title is Talent Acquisition Manager, this is a hands-on recruiting role with no direct reports. The ideal candidate enjoys recruiting, thrives in fast-paced environments, and understands how to successfully recruit accounting professionals from one public accounting firm to another.

Key Responsibilities

Talent Planning & Workforce Strategy
  • Partner with business leaders to identify current and future hiring needs.
  • Develop recruiting strategies and hiring plans across multiple offices and business units.
  • Support workforce planning initiatives related to acquisitions and business growth.
  • Help leadership anticipate future talent needs as additional firms are integrated into the platform.


Full-Cycle Recruiting
  • Manage recruiting efforts from intake meeting through offer acceptance and onboarding.
  • Simultaneously oversee 10+ active searches across multiple firms, locations, and service lines.
  • Source, screen, and assess talent for accounting and finance-related positions.
  • Coordinate interviews, candidate feedback, offers, and onboarding activities.
  • Deliver a high-quality candidate experience throughout the recruiting lifecycle.


Agency & Vendor Management
  • Serve as the primary liaison between leadership and external recruiting partners.
  • Allocate searches to recruiting agencies and sourcing partners.
  • Hold agencies accountable for candidate quality, responsiveness, and hiring timelines.
  • Monitor pipeline activity to ensure hiring goals are met efficiently.


Reporting & Process Improvement
  • Maintain recruiting metrics and pipeline reporting.
  • Utilize ATS and sourcing platforms to track activity and hiring outcomes.
  • Identify opportunities to improve recruiting workflows, consistency, and efficiency.
  • Support onboarding, retention initiatives, compensation benchmarking, and talent planning efforts.


Qualifications

Required
  • Bachelor's Degree required.
  • 4-7+ years of Talent Acquisition or Recruiting experience.
  • Direct experience recruiting within the public accounting industry.
  • Strong understanding of Tax, Audit, CPA, Client Accounting, and related accounting talent.
  • Experience managing multiple concurrent searches across various offices, departments, or business units.
  • Proven success managing external staffing and recruiting agency relationships.
  • Strong communication skills and ability to interact directly with Partners, executives, and senior leadership.
  • Demonstrated recruiting process discipline, organization, and project management capabilities.
  • Stable career progression and strong tenure history.


Preferred
  • Experience supporting highly acquisitive or private equity-backed organizations.
  • Experience recruiting across multiple offices, regions, or acquired entities.
  • Familiarity with HRIS, ATS, and sourcing technologies.
  • Exposure to onboarding, retention, compensation, and broader talent management initiatives.


What We're Looking For
  • A recruiter who enjoys being hands-on and personally driving searches.
  • Strong executive presence and stakeholder management skills.
  • Ability to build credibility with firm leaders and recruiting partners.
  • Someone who understands the public accounting talent market and knows where to find and attract top accounting professionals.
  • Highly organized, proactive, and capable of managing competing priorities with urgency and professionalism.


Compensation & Benefits

Base Salary: $100,000 - $110,000

Why This Opportunity Stands Out
  • Join one of the fastest-growing accounting and professional services platforms in the country.
  • Newly created role with the opportunity to help build and shape Talent Acquisition processes and best practices.
  • Significant visibility with executive leadership and firm partners.
  • High-growth environment supported by a robust acquisition strategy and long-term investment capital.
  • Opportunity to support hiring across a diverse national portfolio of accounting firms serving business owners, entrepreneurs, and high-net-worth clients.
  • Exposure to a leadership team with backgrounds from leading accounting, consulting, and financial services organizations.
