Job description

Our client is a well-established independent tax advisory firm led by a highly experienced tax advisor with over 35 years in the profession. Originally part of a larger accountancy practice, the business has since evolved into a lean, specialist consultancy focused on strategic tax planning.

Operating with a close-knit team, the firm provides high-impact tax solutions that go beyond compliance. With a growing client base and a renewed legal structure, this is a unique opportunity for a forward-thinking tax professional to join early and contribute to the ongoing growth and direction of the business.

The Senior Tax Consultant will play a key role in delivering strategic tax advisory services across a diverse portfolio of clients. This is not a compliance-heavy role - it focuses on consultancy, planning, and adding long-term value to clients' financial structures.

Senior Tax Consultant Job Overview

• Develop and implement corporate and personal tax strategies tailored to clients' short- and long-term goals.
• Provide international tax planning services to ensure cross-border compliance and minimise tax risk.
• Advise clients on investment property tax efficiency, including SDLT, CGT, and IHT reliefs.
• Assist with asset protection and trust planning to help individuals preserve wealth.
• Produce advisory reports to support corporate restructuring, such as introducing holding companies.
• Liaise with legal professionals to support drafting of legal documentation for tax-driven restructuring.
• Contribute to business development efforts by helping to onboard new clients and support growth.
• Apply for HMRC clearances and contribute to technically sound, client-focused solutions.

Senior Tax Consultant Job Requirements

• A recognised tax qualification - ATT or CTA (or equivalent)
• Proven experience in tax advisory, ideally within a practice environment
• Strong interpersonal skills with the ability to engage clients and explain complex matters
• An interest in working within a small, growing firm with leadership potential
• Experience in international tax and restructuring (desirable)

Senior Tax Consultant Salary & Benefits

• On-Target Earnings: £60,000-£70,000 through performance-related share options
• Working Hours: 9am - 5pm (flexible; time off in lieu for additional hours)
• Holiday Package: 20 days + 8 bank holidays
• Free Parking: Nearby car park available
• Study Support: Exam costs covered for first attempt and structured study support provided
• Career Growth: Potential for significant influence in a scaling firm
