US in-house tax salary guide

Welcome to the Brewer Morris US in-house tax salary guide. This is the first time we have produced
this report in the US and hope that this provides useful insight into regional market and salary trends
as well as our expectations for 2023.

While this may be the first edition of our US in-house tax salary guide, our team in the US is built on years of experience and expertise across the in-house tax, accounting and finance talent market.

Brewer Morris was formed in 1987 in the UK as one of the first recruitment consultancies to focus exclusively on tax, treasury and senior finance executive recruitment

As part of The SR Group, we have expanded our reach globally and have become the largest in-house tax recruitment team in the US. As we enter the three-year mark since the beginning of the pandemic, the effects are still being felt on the job market. The Great Resignation synergized with a pseudo-recession to create one of the highest demand hiring markets in the modern era.

2022 was a year unlike any other for recruitment we regularly were advising clientele that if you identified talent that you were confident would be an excellent fit for your company, there would be at least two other hiring managers who were thinking the same. For the most part, we could confidently
say that any given candidate had at least three offers to consider. And 50% of the time, one of those three offers were the candidate’s current company offering a competitive counter. It became abundantly clear, that companies were desperate to avoid having to go to market and backfill roles as a result.
