Mixed Tax Senior

Mixed Tax Senior | Top 100 Independent Firm |
Essex / ATT/CTA Support | Paid Overtime | Clear Progression

I'm currently partnering with a highly regarded Top 100 independent accountancy and advisory firm to recruit a Tax Senior into its growing Tax Department.

This is an excellent opportunity for a tax professional looking to join a well-established firm that combines high-quality client work, strong technical development and genuine work-life balance.

The Firm
Established for over 70 years, this independent practice has approximately 10 Partners and 90 staff, providing tax, audit, accounts, corporate finance and insolvency services across London, Essex and the South East.

The Tax Department consists of around 20 professionals and has built a strong reputation advising owner-managed businesses, entrepreneurs, property businesses and high-net-worth individuals. The team is known for its collaborative culture, excellent retention and commitment to developing talent from within.

The Opportunity
Joining a well-established Tax team, you'll manage a varied portfolio of clients whilst working closely with Managers, Senior Managers and Partners on both compliance and advisory assignments.

Responsibilities will include:

• Managing a portfolio of personal and corporate tax clients
• Preparing and reviewing Self-Assessment and Corporation Tax Returns
• Liaising directly with clients and HMRC
• Supporting on tax planning and advisory projects
• Building and maintaining long-term client relationships
• Working across a broad range of sectors including property, professional practices, SMEs and entrepreneurial businesses

Why This Opportunity Stands Out

• Top 100 independent firm with an excellent reputation
• Broad mix of compliance and advisory work
• Diverse client portfolio including OMBs, HNWIs and entrepreneurial businesses
• Strong ATT and CTA training programme through Tolley's
• Genuine progression opportunities
• Excellent track record of promoting from within
• Supportive leadership team and collaborative working environment

The Package

• Competitive salary dependent on experience
• 36-hour working week
• Flexi-time with core hours of 10am-4pm
• Hybrid working (4 days office / 1 day home)
• Paid overtime up to Assistant Manager level
• 25 days holiday plus bank holidays and birthday off
• Bonus scheme, pension, Cycle to Work scheme and season ticket loan
• Enhanced parental leave
• ATT/CTA study support and structured career development

Culture & Socials

The firm has a genuine people-first culture centred around wellbeing, flexibility and career progression.
Regular social activities include:

• Monthly socials
• Summer Party
• Golf Days
• Theatre Trips
• Charity and fundraising events
• Team nights out and sporting activities

Supported by an active Wellbeing Committee and a strong focus on employee engagement.

About You

• Experience working within a UK accountancy practice tax team
• ATT/CTA qualified, studying, or qualified by experience
• Strong personal tax or mixed tax background
• Confident managing client relationships
• Ambitious and keen to continue developing technically and commercially

Interview Process
