Ready to step out of the traditional model and actually build something?

• No internal barriers - focus on delivering the right advice, not navigating conflicts
• True leadership exposure - work directly with senior stakeholders and decision-makers
• Entrepreneurial culture - your ideas, network, and ambition will be backed
• Clear route to Partnership - based on impact, not tenure
• Earning potenial is massive!

The Role

This is a high-impact leadership role combining technical excellence, team leadership, and business development.

You will:

• Lead and grow the Employment Tax practice across the Midlands
• Act as a trusted adviser to clients ranging from large corporates to mid-market businesses
• Drive business development-leveraging your network and identifying new opportunities
• Lead, mentor, and develop a high-performing team
• Deliver a broad range of employment tax services, including:
  • Employment Status / IR35
  • Salary Sacrifice and Reward Structuring (cash and non-cash)
  • Tax Governance - policy design and process improvement
  • Travel & Sustainability initiatives
  • National Minimum Wage advisory
  • HMRC reviews and dispute support (proactive and reactive)
  • Disclosures, Benefits & Expenses compliance
  • PAYE Settlement Agreements and Forms P11D
  • CJRS & Furlough advisory

Who We're Looking For

• Proven experience in Employment Taxes, ideally within a Big 4, Top 10, or specialist advisory firm
• Currently operating at Director level or an experienced Associate Director / Senior Manager ready to step up
• Strong technical breadth across employment tax
• Demonstrable experience leading teams and developing people
• Track record of winning work and building client relationships
• Commercial mindset-able to deliver practical, business-focused advice
• Background could be practice-trained or ex-HMRC

The Pitch

If you're currently:

• Feeling constrained by rigid structures or internal politics
• Limited in your ability to build and grow a service line
• Ready for a role with more autonomy, visibility, and upside

This is your opportunity to step into a position where:

• You lead, not follow
• You shape the offering, not just deliver it
• Your success is directly tied to the growth of the business
