Tax Manager Jobs in Virginia: Frequently Asked Questions

How do you become a tax manager in Virginia?

Most tax managers in Virginia hold an active CPA license issued through the Virginia Board of Accountancy, which requires passing the Uniform CPA Examination and meeting Virginia's education and experience requirements. A bachelor's degree in accounting or a related field is the standard educational foundation. Candidates typically build several years of tax experience in public accounting or a corporate tax department before moving into a manager role, with many also holding advanced degrees or an Enrolled Agent credential.

How much do tax managers make in Virginia?

Tax managers in Virginia earn a median of about $93,290 a year, based on May 2025 Bureau of Labor Statistics wage data, ranging from around $60,000 for the lowest 10% to over $156,730 for the top 10%. Pay rises with experience, specialty, and employer.

Which companies hire tax managers in Virginia?

Employers hiring tax managers in Virginia right now include Deloitte, Keiter, and Amazon, based on current listings on Migrate Mate as of November 2026. Virginia's concentration of federal contractors, large financial institutions, and Big Four accounting firms creates consistent year-round demand for experienced tax professionals across the state.

Which Virginia cities have the most tax manager jobs?

Richmond, McLean, and Arlington have the most tax manager openings in Virginia. Northern Virginia's dense cluster of government contractors and technology companies drives the largest share of demand, while Richmond's financial services sector and corporate headquarters anchor steady hiring there, and Virginia Beach draws openings from regional professional services firms and mid-size businesses serving the Hampton Roads economy.

Are there remote tax manager jobs in Virginia?

Yes, and more than most fields. About 67% of tax manager openings tied to Virginia are remote or hybrid as of November 2026, reflecting how well the analytical and compliance work translates to distributed teams. Tax compliance review, provision work, and client advisory functions are the most commonly performed remotely, while roles requiring direct oversight of large on-site teams or client-facing audit support tend to stay in-person.

How can I get hired as a tax manager in Virginia with little or no experience?

The most realistic path is starting as a tax associate or staff accountant at a public accounting firm or corporate tax department, then building toward manager over several years. Large Virginia employers like Booz Allen Hamilton, Capital One, and regional CPA firms recruit directly from Virginia's accounting programs at schools such as Virginia Tech and the University of Richmond. Passing the CPA exam early and gaining exposure to both federal and Virginia state returns accelerates the transition into a supervisory role.
