Are you a practice trained accountant looking to specialise in Corporate Tax? Do you thrive working for a smaller practice but enjoy the security of being part of a large group?

We Do Group are recruiting a Senior Corporate Tax Manager to join a dynamic and collaborative team, taking the lead on a portfolio of corporate tax clients ranging from large companies and groups to ambitious owner-managed businesses.

Based with flexibility between client sites and our Guildford office, this role is ideal for a proactive and commercially minded tax professional looking to make a real impact within a supportive and forward-thinking firm.
