Job description

Tax professionals are offered the rare opportunity to move away from timesheets, in this advisory role with a superb employer, largely phone-based and available either with office working at their offices close to Leicester, Hinckley and Coventry, or some jobs are available as fully remote.

Moving into this type of role, it is very different to tax careers in an accountancy practice, with many benefits. The position includes providing advice across the taxes, so most applicants will not have such rounded experience, so the firm can certainly train to support your technical development in full. Applicants who are best suited will be keen to learn, the job best fits curious people, keen to increase their knowledge and find answers to clients questions.

In the role, you spend most of your time talking to clients over the phone about their tax queries, with many of those clients being accountancy practices from all over the UK.

The role is genuinely tax advice and not form filling, with applicants who have studied ATT or CTA (or actively studying) preferred, as the role is most closely aligned to what you might find on a CTA paper.

If you enjoy problem solving and would relish the switch to a career with no timesheets, billing or networking requirements, this role could be a great fit for you!

• Career progression opportunities are plentiful

• Tax Advisor salaries range up to around early £50 s, but can be higher for consultancy teams and starting salaries are dependent on the firm s judgement of technical level and qualifications of course. There is significant room for salary progression once in the role.

• When the firm review CV s, they are ideally looking for people who have some experience working directly with clients to provide advice. Any mention on your CV of Advisory/Planning/Consultancy with examples of being involved with a specific project are welcomed.
• ATT or CTA studiers or qualified people are welcomed, with CTA qualified professionals being invited to apply, even if they have not got advisory experience.

BENEFITS OVERVIEW FOR EMPLOYEES

• Can be fully remote for people living outside of a commutable distance of the office
• 25 days annual leave birthday off, rising to 27 days after 2 years and 28 days after 5 years (Not including Bank Holidays)
• Health insurance options
• Profit share
• Generous contributory pension scheme
• Access to CPD and Professional qualifications
• Commission opportunities
• Rewards including team monthly incentives and group wide awards
• Regular in office events
• Many more benefits
