Job description

We're BDO

We're an accountancy and business advisory firm providing the advice and solutions entrepreneurial organizations need to navigate today's changing world.

We work with Britain's economic engine—ambitious, entrepreneurial, high-growth businesses—and advise their owners and management teams directly.

We'll broaden your horizons

Our Indirect Tax business is growing rapidly. Indirect taxes generate significant revenue for governments worldwide and are increasingly scrutinized by tax authorities, media, and the public. This role offers the chance to develop your tax technical, project management, and client service skills through interesting and complex assignments to help clients succeed.

The team includes both 'home-grown' talent (including partners) and external recruits. This diversity fosters innovative thinking and varied perspectives, enabling us to deliver creative, commercial, and robust solutions.

We'll help you succeed

Our reputation for quality advice stems from a deep understanding of our clients' businesses, built through close collaboration and long-term relationships.

You should be proactive, able to manage your own tasks, and confident in collaborating and communicating with seniors, colleagues, and clients to support business success.

You'll be someone with:

• Experience and interest in UK VAT
• Responsibility to build and manage your advisory portfolio, supported by the Director and Partner
• Attention to detail and clear communication skills
• Willingness to grow a network in the Reading office
• Experience dealing directly with HMRC
• CTA or equivalent qualification, either qualified or part-qualified

We value authenticity and recognize your contributions. We promote agile working and offer flexible arrangements to suit you and your team.

At BDO, we support your personal and professional development through various programs, resources, and frameworks.

We're in it together

Mutual support and respect are core values at BDO. We offer mentoring, coaching, and a supportive culture to help you at every career stage.

Our agile framework keeps teams connected, fostering idea sharing and collaboration. We have modern workspaces and encourage networking, skills sharing, and continuous learning through events and resources.

We're looking forward to the future

We help entrepreneurial businesses succeed, fueling the UK economy. Our success depends on our people, and we continuously invest in your growth.

With a clear purpose and evolving strategies, we aim to combine global reach, integrity, and expertise to shape a better future together, empowering creative thinking and innovation.
