Ready to work on genuinely complex tax without the Big 4 politics?
Our client is one of the fastest-growing firms in the South East and their Corporate Tax team is growing to match. They're looking for a sharp, technically strong Corporate Tax Assistant Manager or Manager to join them and take on meaningful, high-quality work from day one.
This isn't a compliance factory. You'll be working across large groups, international structures, listed clients and everything in between, tackling R&D, CIR, capital allowances, and complex group interactions alongside a team that genuinely values technical depth.
The Role
You'll sit at the heart of the Corporation Tax team, acting as a key technical resource across the wider group. That means:
Advising on and reviewing complex/high-risk tax positions for a varied client base; large groups, international organisations, listed entities and owner-managed businesses
Carrying out technical research on one-off transactions, R&D claims, CIR, capital allowances and group interactions
Supporting colleagues across the firm with corporate tax queries; you'll be a go-to person
Managing client relationships and workflow with a commercial, professional approach
Reviewing compliance work prepared by junior team members and helping develop their skills
What You'll Bring
CTA /ACA qualified (or finalist) with around four years' experience in corporate tax within an accountancy firm
Strong technical skills and the confidence to navigate contentious or complex tax issues
Experience working with large, high-risk clients (this is essential)
A sharp eye for risk and the ability to identify issues before they become problems
IRIS experience is a bonus, not a dealbreaker

£48000.00 - £60000.00 per year
