I am currently supporting a local West Kent-based Firm of Accountants that are looking to appoint an Assistant Tax Manager/ Tax Manager to their team. They are based in Kent for work-life balance purposes but their client base is one you would expect to find working for a top London based firm. They are looking for an experienced tax professional with a background in corporation tax as this will be the main focus of the role, with a little personal tax work at times. They are a reputable firm in providing tax consultancy advice and accountancy support to their client base and have grown their service delivery within a very niche market. The Partners are both Top 10 trained and can offer a professional, rewarding, and fast-paced environment where you will be rewarded for your efforts and achievements. At the same time, they can offer a very competitive salary, flexibility with hours, and work-life balance.

Ideally, they are looking to appoint someone who is an experienced Tax specialist who is either CTA/ACA Qualified and has experience of working in a similar field. You will be responsible for managing your own portfolio of corporate clients which vary from OMB to large corporate groups, experience in M&A would be beneficial. You will work within a small team, supporting the Partners, providing portfolio management and advisory services for the firm, and be responsible for budgeting, planning, and managing the team.

Your responsibilities:
-Advise on R&D tax credits
-EIS relief
-EMI share schemes
-Transfer pricing consideration
-Planning for intellectual property
-Corporate tax advice including reorganisations and reconstructions
-Complex tax provisions and tax computations
-Personal tax planning and compliance
-International tax planning including personal and corporate
-Manage, review and prepare complex cases

You will also be involved in providing advice on a wide range of projects, working with clients who have international links, and being responsible for managing these client relationships. Identifying client needs and requirements will be key and you will be expected to network and engage with clients and be responsible for developing business for the firm.

This firm offers the opportunity to work within a very consultative environment as they offer highly technical advice to their clients. They are happy to support further development and growth and are looking for someone ambitious who can manage a team and work independently, network and develop business, and contribute to the growth and success of the firm

Unfortunately, due to the high number of applications currently being received, only shortlisted candidates will be contacted.
