We also specialise in providing advice to Trusts and Estates, and Partnerships.

If you are a highly motivated qualified tax adviser/ accountant (ATT, CTA or ACA/ACCA) with experience of working in personal tax, then we'd love to hear from you.

You will ensure the delivery of a high quality compliance service to our clients, including the review of complex and varied tax returns, capital gains calculations, land and property accounts and complex residence and remittance issues. You will also manage the risk and regulatory considerations on your portfolio, budgeting, work in progress and ensure prompt billing and cash collection.

What will you need to do it?

The role will suit either a high performing Manager keen to work with an exciting client base and keen to progress, or a recently qualified individual looking to gain exposure to a dynamic and entrepreneurial team.

Candidates interested in this role should have the following skills and qualifications:

• A desire to work in a challenging but rewarding environment;
• Comfortable with building internal and client relationships in a hybrid working environment;
• Strong communication skills and a willingness to contribute ideas and actively participate in supporting business growth and practice development;

• Academically strong results in career to date coupled with a keen and insightful understanding of the issues facing private clients and partnerships.
• An understanding of the KPMG Values and their importance in our work together.
• Professional curiosity, enthusiasm for private client work and an aptitude for technical analysis perhaps with a desire to specialise in an area of interest alongside a strong general technical competence.

We are also open to applicants from individuals with other relevant tax or accountancy experience that hold a suitable qualification and can demonstrate exceptional client service and a desire to develop in a new area of tax

If you are a highly motivated qualified tax adviser/ accountant (ATT, CTA or ACA/ACCA) with experience of working in personal tax, then we'd love to hear from you.
