Tax Practice

Bill brings over 15 years of experience as a tax executive recruiter to Ascension Search Partners, handling both professional permanent and interim placements. Bill has partnered with companies spanning start-up to Fortune 500 on all levels and specializations of tax requisitions, including Head of Tax.

As a previous VP Controller and Big 4 auditor with KPMG, Bill transitioned to executive search with a “relationships first” philosophy and has succeeded in developing an incredible network that gives him access to the passive candidates his clients seek. As such, he has become the go-to tax executive recruiter for his clients and candidates in the Bay area and beyond. With the belief that the best recruiting strategy starts with your current employees, Bill brings a consultative and informative approach, and prides himself on being a true business partner. Bill’s ability to find top tier tax talent, and to truly take the time to understand his client’s needs, has allowed him to develop a client base that has kept coming back to him, some for over a decade. With his deep specialization and wide-ranging network, honed over more than a decade, Bill is truly an invaluable resource to those seeking to explore new career opportunities in tax, or hire tax professionals across all levels.

A native of Upstate New York, Bill relocated to Silicon Valley in 2008. He is the proud father of 3 children ranging from ages 6 to 17. When he is not involved in their sports activities, he partakes in roller hockey and volunteers at his church.
