This is not a traditional engagement-manager role. The successful candidate will own the growth and direction of the practice, serve as a primary bridge between Keystone's principals and managers, lead our most complex controversy and research matters, and support tax planning for mergers and acquisitions involving Keystone Business Brokers clients. Depending on experience, credentials, leadership history, and demonstrated practice-building ability, the successful candidate may be considered at the Director or Principal level. About Keystone Keystone is an integrated advisory firm focused on helping small and midsize business owners build stronger companies and better financial lives. We help clients improve performance, increase enterprise value, create scalable businesses that are not overly dependent on the owner, prepare for and potentially execute a business sale, and convert business success into long-term personal wealth. Our platform brings together Keystone CPAs, Keystone Business Brokers, and Keystone Wealth Advisors. This allows us to support owners throughout the business lifecycle - from accounting, tax compliance, CFO advisory, and strategic planning, through transaction preparation and execution, and ultimately into personal wealth planning, investment management, and legacy planning. The Tax Services Group is a key part of this integrated model. TSG handles sophisticated tax issues that extend beyond traditional return preparation, including federal and state controversy, advanced tax research, technical memorandums, strategic planning, and transaction tax consulting. Position Summary The Director / Principal will be the senior practice leader for TSG. This individual will combine technical tax depth, executive-level client service, business development, team leadership, and sound commercial judgment. The role is accountable not only for the quality and delivery of engagements, but also for growing the practice, strengthening Keystone's market position, and ensuring TSG expertise is effectively deployed across the firm. A central responsibility is serving as the primary technical and leadership interface between Keystone's principals and managers. The Director / Principal will help identify client needs, frame the right scope, assemble the right team, guide complex analysis, communicate recommendations, and ensure that controversy, research, planning, brokerage, and wealth-advisory opportunities are coordinated in the client's best interest. What You Will Do Practice Leadership and Growth Set the strategic direction and annual operating plan for the Tax Services Group. Grow practice revenue, qualified pipeline, referral relationships, and market visibility while maintaining strong quality and profitability. Identify and develop new service offerings that respond to recurring client and referral-source needs. Lead business development efforts with business owners, attorneys, CPA firms, investment bankers, lenders, and other professional advisors. Develop pricing, scoping, staffing, and delivery models that allow the practice to scale without sacrificing technical quality or client service. Represent TSG in firmwide planning and help Keystone principals evaluate opportunities, priorities, risks, and resource needs. Principal and Manager Interface Serve as the primary technical point of connection between Keystone's principals and managers on complex controversy, research, and strategic planning matters. Help principals and managers recognize when a client issue requires specialized tax controversy, research, transaction, or planning support. Translate client objectives into clear engagement scope, technical workstreams, staffing plans, budgets, and deliverables. Provide practical, timely guidance that enables managers to lead client relationships with confidence while appropriately escalating high-risk or judgmental matters. Create repeatable processes, tools, training, and communication protocols that make TSG expertise accessible across the firm. Tax Controversy and Technical Leadership Lead significant federal and state tax controversy matters, including examinations, administrative appeals, collection matters, penalty disputes, and other complex IRS or state agency proceedings. Research and interpret the Internal Revenue Code, Treasury Regulations, IRS guidance, Revenue Rulings, court decisions, and other authoritative tax sources. Develop defensible technical positions, legal and factual arguments, risk assessments, and practical resolution strategies. Prepare and review high-quality technical memorandums, opinion-level analyses, protest letters, responses to information document requests, and other written advocacy. Coordinate effectively with clients, CPAs, attorneys, valuation professionals, and other outside advisors. Act as a trusted technical resource for Keystone professionals and partner CPA firms nationwide. M&A and Transaction Tax Planning Partner with Keystone Business Brokers and Keystone principals to identify and address tax issues early in the transaction process. Advise business owners on transaction structure, pre-closing tax planning, entity restructuring, tax modeling, purchase price allocation, rollover equity, and other seller-focused planning considerations. Assist with tax due diligence, quality-of-earnings follow-up, transaction document review, and coordination with buyer and seller advisors as appropriate. Explain tax tradeoffs in practical business terms so owners can evaluate after-tax proceeds, risk, timing, and deal certainty. Coordinate with Keystone Wealth Advisors when transaction planning affects liquidity, investment strategy, charitable planning, estate planning, or long-term wealth objectives. Develop transaction-planning tools and standardized processes that allow Keystone to deliver a consistent, differentiated experience to business owners. Client and Market Leadership Own senior-level relationships with key clients and referral sources. Lead high-stakes client meetings and present complex conclusions clearly, directly, and credibly. Build Keystone's reputation through articles, presentations, webinars, professional education, and other thought leadership. Develop durable relationships with CPA firms that need specialized controversy, research, or transaction tax support without displacing their core client relationships. Identify broader Keystone opportunities while maintaining a client-first, needs-based approach. Team Leadership and Talent Development Lead and develop a fully remote, project-based team of approximately four tax professionals located throughout the United States. Clarify roles, set priorities, assign work based on expertise and capacity, and maintain accountability for deadlines and quality. Coach managers and professionals through complex technical issues rather than simply reviewing work at the end. Conduct thoughtful quality reviews and ensure work product is technically sound, persuasive, practical, and consistent with firm standards. Recruit, onboard, retain, and develop high-performing professionals and future practice leaders. Create a culture of urgency, ownership, collaboration, candor, and continuous improvement. Engagement Economics, Quality, and Risk Oversee engagement acceptance, scope, budgets, staffing, timelines, realization, profitability, billing, and collections in coordination with firm leadership. Proactively identify technical, legal, reputational, independence, staffing, and delivery risks. Establish quality-control and documentation standards appropriate for controversy, technical research, and transaction planning engagements. Communicate status, risks, and decisions clearly to firm leadership and clients before deadlines or budgets are compromised. Balance technical rigor with commercial practicality and efficient delivery. What Success Looks Like Within the first 12 months, the Director / Principal will: Establish credibility as the firm's senior leader for tax controversy, advanced research, and strategic transaction tax planning. Build strong working relationships with Keystone principals and managers and create a reliable process for identifying, scoping, and delivering TSG engagements.

Strengthen the integration of TSG with Keystone Business Brokers and Keystone Wealth Advisors, particularly for owner transition and liquidity events. Deliver high-quality work on time, within agreed scope, and with strong client satisfaction and engagement economics.

Depending on experience, credentials, leadership history, and demonstrated practice-building ability, the successful candidate may be considered at the Director or Principal level. About Keystone Keystone is an integrated advisory firm focused on helping small and midsize business owners build stronger companies and better financial lives. We help clients improve performance, increase enterprise value, create scalable businesses that are not overly dependent on the owner, prepare for and potentially execute a business sale, and convert business success into long-term personal wealth. Our platform brings together Keystone CPAs, Keystone Business Brokers, and Keystone Wealth Advisors. This allows us to support owners throughout the business lifecycle - from accounting, tax compliance, CFO advisory, and strategic planning, through transaction preparation and execution, and ultimately into personal wealth planning, investment management, and legacy planning. The Tax Services Group is a key part of this integrated model. TSG handles sophisticated tax issues that extend beyond traditional return preparation, including federal and state controversy, advanced tax research, technical memorandums, strategic planning, and transaction tax consulting. Position Summary The Director / Principal will be the senior practice leader for TSG. This individual will combine technical tax depth, executive-level client service, business development, team leadership, and sound commercial judgment. The role is accountable not only for the quality and delivery of engagements, but also for growing the practice, strengthening Keystone's market position, and ensuring TSG expertise is effectively deployed across the firm. A central responsibility is serving as the primary technical and leadership interface between Keystone's principals and managers. The Director / Principal will help identify client needs, frame the right scope, assemble the right team, guide complex analysis, communicate recommendations, and ensure that controversy, research, planning, brokerage, and wealth-advisory opportunities are coordinated in the client's best interest. What You Will Do Practice Leadership and Growth Set the strategic direction and annual operating plan for the Tax Services Group. Grow practice revenue, qualified pipeline, referral relationships, and market visibility while maintaining strong quality and profitability. Identify and develop new service offerings that respond to recurring client and referral-source needs. Lead business development efforts with business owners, attorneys, CPA firms, investment bankers, lenders, and other professional advisors. Develop pricing, scoping, staffing, and delivery models that allow the practice to scale without sacrificing technical quality or client service. Represent TSG in firmwide planning and help Keystone principals evaluate opportunities, priorities, risks, and resource needs. Principal and Manager Interface Serve as the primary technical point of connection between Keystone's principals and managers on complex controversy, research, and strategic planning matters. Help principals and managers recognize when a client issue requires specialized tax controversy, research, transaction, or planning support. Translate client objectives into clear engagement scope, technical workstreams, staffing plans, budgets, and deliverables. Provide practical, timely guidance that enables managers to lead client relationships with confidence while appropriately escalating high-risk or judgmental matters. Create repeatable processes, tools, training, and communication protocols that make TSG expertise accessible across the firm. Tax Controversy and Technical Leadership Lead significant federal and state tax controversy matters, including examinations, administrative appeals, collection matters, penalty disputes, and other complex IRS or state agency proceedings. Research and interpret the Internal Revenue Code, Treasury Regulations, IRS guidance, Revenue Rulings, court decisions, and other authoritative tax sources. Develop defensible technical positions, legal and factual arguments, risk assessments, and practical resolution strategies. Prepare and review high-quality technical memorandums, opinion-level analyses, protest letters, responses to information document requests, and other written advocacy. Coordinate effectively with clients, CPAs, attorneys, valuation professionals, and other outside advisors. Act as a trusted technical resource for Keystone professionals and partner CPA firms nationwide. M&A and Transaction Tax Planning Partner with Keystone Business Brokers and Keystone principals to identify and address tax issues early in the transaction process. Advise business owners on transaction structure, pre-closing tax planning, entity restructuring, tax modeling, purchase price allocation, rollover equity, and other seller-focused planning considerations. Assist with tax due diligence, quality-of-earnings follow-up, transaction document review, and coordination with buyer and seller advisors as appropriate. Explain tax tradeoffs in practical business terms so owners can evaluate after-tax proceeds, risk, timing, and deal certainty. Coordinate with Keystone Wealth Advisors when transaction planning affects liquidity, investment strategy, charitable planning, estate planning, or long-term wealth objectives. Develop transaction-planning tools and standardized processes that allow Keystone to deliver a consistent, differentiated experience to business owners. Client and Market Leadership Own senior-level relationships with key clients and referral sources. Lead high-stakes client meetings and present complex conclusions clearly, directly, and credibly. Build Keystone's reputation through articles, presentations, webinars, professional education, and other thought leadership. Develop durable relationships with CPA firms that need specialized controversy, research, or transaction tax support without displacing their core client relationships. Identify broader Keystone opportunities while maintaining a client-first, needs-based approach. Team Leadership and Talent Development Lead and develop a fully remote, project-based team of approximately four tax professionals located throughout the United States. Clarify roles, set priorities, assign work based on expertise and capacity, and maintain accountability for deadlines and quality. Coach managers and professionals through complex technical issues rather than simply reviewing work at the end. Conduct thoughtful quality reviews and ensure work product is technically sound, persuasive, practical, and consistent with firm standards. Recruit, onboard, retain, and develop high-performing professionals and future practice leaders. Create a culture of urgency, ownership, collaboration, candor, and continuous improvement. Engagement Economics, Quality, and Risk Oversee engagement acceptance, scope, budgets, staffing, timelines, realization, profitability, billing, and collections in coordination with firm leadership. Proactively identify technical, legal, reputational, independence, staffing, and delivery risks. Establish quality-control and documentation standards appropriate for controversy, technical research, and transaction planning engagements. Communicate status, risks, and decisions clearly to firm leadership and clients before deadlines or budgets are compromised. Balance technical rigor with commercial practicality and efficient delivery. What Success Looks Like Within the first 12 months, the Director / Principal will: Establish credibility as the firm's senior leader for tax controversy, advanced research, and strategic transaction tax planning. Build strong working relationships with Keystone principals and managers and create a reliable process for identifying, scoping, and delivering TSG engagements. Develop and begin executing a multi-year growth plan for TSG, including priority services, target referral sources, pipeline development, staffing, and profitability. Strengthen the integration of TSG with Keystone Business Brokers and Keystone Wealth Advisors, particularly for owner transition and liquidity events. Deliver high-quality work on time, within agreed scope, and with strong client satisfaction and engagement economics. Develop managers and team members so the practice can scale without becoming dependent on one individual. Expand Keystone's reputation as a practical, technically sophisticated resource for business owners, attorneys, and CPA firms nationwide.
