The Mather Group

Tax Associate ( Chicago / Houston )

ABOUT THE MATHER GROUP, LLC

The Mather Group, LLC (TMG) is one of the fastest-growing independent, fee-only registered investment advisory firms in the country, offering comprehensive wealth management services with our clients’ best interests in mind.

TMG is a federally Registered Investment Adviser (RIA) with a fiduciary duty to our clients. That means we are obligated to always act in their best interest. When clients choose TMG, we work to mitigate any potential conflicts of interest regarding how their money is managed and where their money is held. Our financial professionals do not hold brokerage licenses, are not compensated by selling products, and do not earn commissions—we do not incentivize ourselves at our clients’ expense. We aim to minimize cost wherever possible and to provide complete transparency about our fees, which are outlined in our firm’s public disclosure documents.

What we are doing differently is educating investors on what the fiduciary responsibility really means, at a time when it is more important than ever. ABOUT TMG’S TAX TEAM

TMG’s Tax Team manages the comprehensive tax needs of TMG clients. We focus on two major areas: Tax consulting and compliance, which includes tax advice for clients and TMG wealth advisors as well as client tax filings for individuals, small businesses, gifts, trusts, and estates. Tax retirement strategy planning, which includes the assessment of income streams over a 30-year time frame as well as the coordination of retirement distributions with the goal of maximizing assets and minimizing tax exposure. Our Tax Team aims to provide a long-term home for all team members. We want accountants to join us at any point—directly out of school or with years of experience—and grow their career here. Our goal is never to just fill a seat but to hire individuals who will help us continue to grow TMG long-term. As of July 2022, we have about 25 people on the Tax Team, which is organized into sub-teams that are dedicated to specific groups of clients. The Tax Team headcount may increase by 50-100% over the next few years based on TMG’s current client growth projections. ABOUT THE POSITION
