Job description

Your new company
A fantastic corporate tax opportunity has arisen within the tax team of a well-established independent firm located in the West of Birmingham, with a strong focus on work-life balance for their staff. Working closely with the Tax Director, accounts, and audit departments, as well as other tax colleagues, this role involves coordinating corporate tax work within the firm—managing compliance and assisting with advisory projects.

Your new role
This firm has a varied client base, ranging in size, industry, and complexity. As the Corporate Tax Senior/Manager, you will review corporate tax returns completed by other departments and serve as the go-to person for more complex matters. You will manage a diverse portfolio, ensuring deadlines are met, technical queries are resolved, and excellent relationships are maintained with clients. Additionally, you will support the Tax Director with corporate tax projects, undertaking research and preparing advisory reports on various tax matters.

What you'll need to succeed
You will possess prior UK corporate tax experience gained within an accountancy firm and ideally hold ATT qualifications (those who are partly or fully ACCA/ACA/CTA qualified will also be considered). You should have a solid technical understanding of corporate tax compliance, be up-to-date with legislative changes, and be confident in managing a client portfolio. Excellent communication skills are essential to collaborate effectively with colleagues and maintain strong client relationships. You must demonstrate the ability to meet deadlines, pay close attention to detail, and work independently to manage your workload.

What you'll get in return
Enjoy working in a friendly and supportive firm that values work-life balance, with flexible working arrangements, a shorter day on Fridays, a relaxed yet professional environment, and support for your long-term career development. If you're eager to further your tax career and work with a diverse range of clients, this role offers a great opportunity.
