The offer is in-line with a medium cost of labor market and I would question your assertion that you are “only not a director due to a lack of a post-graduate degree.” That sounds like your own made up excuse for your current career progression. If you are good at what you do, you will not be that far from PPMD and that is what matters.

A bit low, 200K + would be reasonable. Also a graduate degree doesn’t mean much at this point in your career and how much YOE you have. Why would an employer ding you if you don’t have a graduate degree? Let your work and experience talk for itself.
A graduate degree isn’t a barrier to entry or a salary determinate in public accounting, at least not in my experience. It just pads your bio and helps your pitch vs. your competition - internally and externally.
My last year as an SM, with 15 years of experience, I was at $225k + $25k bonus, in HCOL.
Tax SM in MCOL and that is the bottom of the range for my band.
Tax SM in MCOL, that’s below the mid-point of the range for my band.
I have half the experience, no post-grad, no CPA, and I’m above the mid-point.
At 18 YOE, you should be over $200k by now. I’m in MCOL with 7 YOE at $155k.

Seems a little low
Seems low to me too based on YOE. I’m about 9 yoe and 20% higher. Role/company are probably better differentiators than COL.
Depends on your background and areas of experience. Do you have a graduate degree? FWIW I have a JD and a few more YOE but LCOL at $210.
Seeing you don’t have a grad degree - IMO this salary range is fine.
Mentor
Sounds like you might be in industry based on the graduate degree comment. If so that’s appropriate salary. True MCOL (ie not Tampa or Chicago) that’s probably ok and hopefully a step up for you
Good for LCOL
