Director of Client Accounting Services
Savant Wealth Management·Clinton, South Carolina
Job functions:
$131k - $196k/yr

Job Description
Looking for something beyond traditional corporate accounting? As the Director of Client Accounting Services, you’ll lead client engagements, build lasting client relationships, and develop a high-performing team while helping businesses succeed through accounting and advisory services. This is a hands-on, client-facing leadership role for an experienced accounting professional who enjoys working directly with clients, leading teams, and driving practice growth.
The Director of Client Accounting Services leads and develops SABA's recurring client accounting and business advisory practice. This client-facing, player-coach role is accountable for service quality, consistent delivery, team capability, client relationships, practice financial performance, and sustainable growth across accounting, bookkeeping, financial reporting, payroll, outsourced Controller/CFO, and related advisory services. The Director translates national strategy into scalable operating practices; integrates acquired teams, clients, workflows, and technology; and builds a cohesive culture of accountability, collaboration, continuous improvement, and exceptional client service. This is not an internal corporate accounting or Controller position. Success requires leadership of external client engagements and the ability to balance client outcomes with the operational and financial demands of a professional-services practice.
This position will be based out of one of Savant's Tax & Consulting office locations in: Rockford, IL; St. Charles, IL; Cedar Rapids, IA; Iowa City, IA; Dover, DE; Lewes, DE; Plano, TX; Dallas, TX; or San Antonio, TX.
In this role, you can expect to focus in the following areas:
Leadership & Strategy
- Define and execute the strategic vision for the Tax & Consulting practice, aligning with Savant’s broader organizational goals and OKRs
- Act as a catalyst for new initiatives, products, and service enhancements within the accounting and business advisory practice
- Partner with executive leadership to execute on the buildout of niche service offerings.
- Own practice level financial performance, including revenue and team utilization targets for the Accounting, Payroll, and Consulting service lines.
- Evaluate staffing needs, capacity, and structure to ensure the team is positioned for growth and exceptional service delivery
- Align departmental policies and procedures with firm wide corporate goals and objectives
- Facilitate and model a culture of continuous improvement, innovation, and operational excellence
Client Service & Advisory
- Serve as a senior advisor for complex client engagements, including multi entity business owners, high net worth individuals, and closely held companies
- Oversee and manage fee only accounting and business advisory engagements from engagement letter through billing and final delivery
- Provide strategic guidance on business structure, compensation modeling, cash flow planning, and financial reporting for business owner clients
- Develop and maintain compensation models for multi owner entities and advise on retirement plan options for various business structures
- Collaborate with the Tax & Consulting and Wealth Management teams to deliver integrated, holistic client solutions
- Participate in and lead client facing presentations, webinars, and educational events
Accounting & Business Operations
- Oversee monthly accounting, financial statement preparation, payroll processing, and business consulting activities across the practice
- Review and sign off on complex financial statements, write up engagements, and advisory deliverables
- Ensure accuracy, timeliness, and compliance across all accounting and payroll client deliverables
- Review and analyze new technology, software, and vendor relationships to continuously improve team effectiveness; lead the consolidation and streamlining of existing tools and platforms into a unified “one Savant way” technology stack, and proactively evaluate and adopt AI and automation solutions to drive efficiency, quality, and scalability.
- Consolidate and oversee a unified “one team” accounting and payroll operating model.
- Maintain and enhance best practices, workflows, and standardized procedures across the accounting and payroll functions
- Facilitate communication and responsiveness between the Accounting & Business Advisory team and other internal and external partners
Business Development
- Drive business development efforts for the Tax & Consulting practice, including referrals from the Wealth and Tax & Consulting teams
- Build and strengthen relationships with clients, centers of influence, and prospective clients to grow the practice
- Identify and pursue opportunities to expand service offerings and deepen existing client relationships
- Establish, monitor, and meet business development KPIs and metrics, and report on practice performance against these targets
Team Development & Integration
- Train, mentor, and develop accounting, payroll, and consulting staff in a highly interactive and collaborative team environment
- Facilitate educational and training opportunities that enhance team technical skills and professional growth
- Partner with acquisition integration team on the operational integration of A&P books of business, tools and technology, and team members, ensuring a smooth transition to Savant’s “one team” operating model
- Perform other duties as requested; maintain a team approach by assisting and filling in for others
Leadership Responsibilities
- Champion a constructive culture and lead by example to promote an environment where employees are accountable, motivated by success, supported in taking initiatives, and are recognized for their achievements. Regularly engage with team members to ensure that cultural values are integrated into daily operations and decision making processes, enhancing overall engagement and team cohesion.
- Select, supervise, empower, coach, develop, and retain a team of qualified individuals across accounting, payroll, and consulting functions, through effective hiring, employee development, performance management, succession planning, and recognition.
- Align team objectives and individual performance metrics directly with organizational strategic goals, ensuring clear communication and understanding of how team efforts contribute to broader company success.
- Collaboratively set challenging but realistic goals aligned with departmental and organizational objectives. Work with employees on a plan to achieve their goals.
- Oversee and lead staff, including hiring, assigning work, and recommending salary increases, promotions, transfers, demotions, or terminations.
- Maintain open and effective communication, ensuring that team members are informed, engaged, and aligned with firm updates and strategic changes.
- Actively engage in ongoing coaching, providing regular, constructive feedback and guidance to foster professional growth and improvement.
- When managing subordinate supervisors, provide leadership, guidance, and resources needed to ensure they are effective in their management roles.
- Model exemplary conduct by consistently upholding the highest ethical and legal standards, and actively promote adherence to Savant’s policies, procedures, and core values.

Client Services Manager Jobs in South Carolina: Frequently Asked Questions
How do you become a client services manager in South Carolina?
Most client services manager roles in South Carolina require a bachelor's degree in business, marketing, communications, or a related field, though no state-issued license is required for the role itself. Employers typically want candidates who have progressed through account coordinator or customer success roles at South Carolina companies in financial services, healthcare, or logistics. Industry certifications such as the Certified Customer Experience Professional designation can strengthen a candidacy, particularly at larger Columbia or Charleston employers.
Which companies hire client services managers in South Carolina?
Companies currently hiring client services managers in South Carolina include Ardurra, State of South Carolina, and Savant Wealth Management, per current listings on Migrate Mate as of November 2026. South Carolina's concentration of insurance carriers, regional banks, and manufacturing firms with national client bases means demand is especially consistent in the Columbia metro and along the I-85 corridor near Greenville and Spartanburg.
Which South Carolina cities have the most client services manager jobs?
Richland County, Greer, and Clinton account for the majority of client services manager openings in South Carolina. Columbia leads because it is home to BlueCross BlueShield of South Carolina and several large state government contractors, while Charleston's growing technology and logistics sectors drive demand there, and Fort Mill and Rock Hill benefit from their proximity to Charlotte's large financial services and corporate services employers just across the state line.
Are there remote client services manager jobs in South Carolina?
Yes, and more than many fields, since client services management is largely desk-based and communication-driven. About 0% of client services manager openings tied to South Carolina are remote or hybrid as of November 2026, reflecting how well the role adapts to distributed work. The parts of the role most commonly done remotely are account check-ins, reporting, and client onboarding calls, while strategic reviews or new business meetings often still require in-person presence.
How can I get hired as a client services manager in South Carolina with little or no experience?
The most realistic entry path is through a customer success associate or account coordinator role at a South Carolina-based insurer, healthcare system, or technology firm, then building toward a manager title. BlueCross BlueShield of South Carolina and South Carolina's regional banks regularly post associate-level client-facing roles that serve as a direct pipeline. A relevant internship, a Salesforce administrator credential, or demonstrated retention results in any service role give candidates without formal manager experience a concrete edge in local applications.
Where can I find and apply to client services manager jobs in South Carolina?
You can find and apply to client services manager jobs in South Carolina on Migrate Mate, which lists current South Carolina openings updated in real time. Search the roles available, find the ones that match your experience and the industries you want to work in, and apply directly to whichever fit your background.
