Recruiters find you with a search string. Yours doesn’t match it.

We have spent a combined 30+ years searching LinkedIn for tax professionals. We can tell you exactly why good candidates never appear in our results, and it is almost never because they are not good enough.

How this actually works

When a company hires us to find a Tax Director, we do not browse. We run a search built from specific terms, titles, technical skills, software, industry, sometimes a former employer. Then we work through the results. If your profile does not contain the words we searched for, you do not exist for that role. It is that mechanical.

Most tax professionals have a profile that says “Tax Manager” and the name of their company, and nothing else. That profile is invisible to us. Not unimpressive, invisible. You will never know what you were not called about.

What we do

  • The search terms that matter. The words recruiters in this field actually use, and which of them you are missing.
  • Your headline. The single highest-leverage line on the profile, and almost always the most wasted.
  • The About section. Most tax professionals leave it empty or fill it with a mission statement. There is a version that works.
  • Being findable without being visible. How to become discoverable to recruiters without signalling to your current employer that you are looking.
  • A written rewrite. You leave with the actual text, not a list of suggestions.

What to bring

Nothing. Just make sure we can see your profile before we talk. If it is thin, that is fine. That is the starting point for most people who book this.

Common questions

I am not looking to move. Is this still worth it?

Arguably more so. The point of a findable profile is that opportunities reach you while you are not looking, which is when you have the most leverage to evaluate them.

Will my employer see that I updated my profile?

Not if you do it correctly, and we cover exactly that. There are settings that matter and a sequence that avoids broadcasting changes.

Do I need to post content?

No. Being found is a search problem, not an audience problem. Posting is optional and, for most tax professionals, not where the return is.

Is this enough on its own?

If your profile is the bottleneck, yes. If you are running an active search, pair it with the job search session.

Coaching fees are for preparation, confidence and intentional execution. They do not put you in front of our clients or move you up any shortlist. If we are actively representing you for a role with one of our clients, we will not charge you coaching fees related to that search, and we will not advise an employer on a shortlist that includes a coaching client.
