Personal tax roles that come with genuine advisory exposure are not that easy to find, and this is one of them.
A well-regarded firm of chartered certified accountants with offices across Essex is growing and wants a Tax Senior or Semi Senior for the tax team in their Colchester office. You would sit alongside the Tax Director, which means the advisory work is not something you get to look at once a year, it is part of the job.
What you'll be doing:
Running a mixed portfolio of high net worth individuals, directors, self-employed clients, subcontractors and partnerships
Preparing tax returns, along with self-employed and partnership accounts
Capital Gains Tax work, including 60 day property filings
Supporting the Tax Director with ad hoc advisory work
Preparing P11Ds
Dealing directly with HMRC and speaking to clients yourself
What they're looking for:
At least three years in a busy tax department within practice
Solid practical knowledge of personal tax
CGT experience, including 60 day property reporting
Someone confident with clients and comfortable dealing with people at all levels
A proactive approach rather than waiting to be handed work
What's on offer:
Competitive salary depending on experience
Study support where it is needed
37.5 hour week
22 days holiday plus bank holidays
Direct working relationship with the Tax Director and real advisory exposure
If you are in personal tax and want more than compliance, this one is worth a conversation
