Background

A reputable UK accounting practice is looking to appoint an experienced Corporate Tax specialist to the business, as they plan for growth and future succession of the current Head of Tax.

The business, which grew approximately 20% in the previous FY, are in a position to continue this strong growth through a growing client base and strategic acquisitions. With offices around the UK, they find themselves in a unique position amongst their peers to provide a full service offering for UK businesses.

Working with a predominantly OMB and SME client base, the team advise on tax issues across the spectrum of corporate tax but ensure they plan effectively for the owners of these businesses, as well.

Role

As the future successor of the national tax team, you'll be responsible for:

Key tax technical advice to family-owned, OMBs and SME businesses across tax issues including:

M&A planning
Exit strategies
Reconstructions / Reorganisations
EIS / SEIS
Employee Incentive Schemes
VAT

Leading and managing a team
Development of junior resource
Strategic growth of the tax business
Key account and client management

As a result of significant work flow from referrals from other areas of the business, there's little to no-need for active business development, rather a focus on maintaining current client relationships.

Ideal Candidate

CTA / ATT qualified
Demonstrable experience in tax structuring and planning for an OMB / SME client base
History of effectively liaising with key clients to ensure a desirable outcome for client and firm
Broad Corporate Tax knowledge across a broad range of industries
Experience in Personal tax planning for HNWIs and owners of businesses is desirable but not a prerequisite
