Corporate Tax Manager – Advisory \n £60,000–£70,000 \n OTE £90,000 - £100,000 \n Fully Remote \n \n Our client is a high-growth tax and strategic advisory firm supporting entrepreneurs, privately owned businesses and ambitious companies across the UK and internationally. \n \n The firm has grown significantly in recent years by combining high-level technical expertise with a modern, commercially focused approach to corporate tax advice. \n \n As the business continues to scale, this is a key senior appointment for an experienced corporate tax professional who wants greater influence, genuine autonomy and the opportunity to help shape the future of an advisory-led tax function. \n \n This is not a traditional, compliance-heavy accountancy practice. You will be joining an ambitious, founder-led advisory business with a high-calibre client base, a strong market profile and clear plans for continued growth. \n \n The Role \n \n You will work closely with the senior leadership team, taking responsibility for complex corporate tax advisory projects while helping to develop the firm’s wider corporate tax offering. \n \n The client base includes founder-led businesses, owner-managed companies, scaling organisations and established privately owned groups. These are clients who require proactive, commercially intelligent advice rather than routine compliance support. \n \n Many are growing rapidly, restructuring their operations, preparing for investment or sale, completing acquisitions, expanding internationally or dealing with increasingly complex corporate tax matters. \n \n You will lead advisory projects, manage senior client relationships and provide clear, technically robust advice that considers both the immediate tax position and the client’s wider commercial objectives. \n \n Typical responsibilities will include: \n \n\n • Leading complex corporate tax advisory engagements for owner-managed businesses, privately owned groups and entrepreneurial companies\n, • Advising on corporate restructures, reorganisations, demergers and group simplification projects\n, • Supporting clients through acquisitions, disposals, investments and other corporate transactions\n, • Advising on tax-efficient growth strategies, succession planning and business exits\n, • Providing advice on corporation tax matters, capital allowances, loss utilisation and group relief\n, • Supporting businesses expanding or operating internationally\n, • Identifying and advising on relevant tax reliefs and incentives\n, • Acting as a trusted corporate tax adviser to business owners, directors and senior leadership teams\n, • Reviewing technical work and helping to develop less experienced members of the tax team\n, • Working with senior leadership to shape and grow the corporate tax advisory function\n, • Identifying opportunities to improve technical standards, service delivery and client outcomes\n\n \n Why This Opportunity Stands Out \n \n This role offers access to the quality of work, client complexity and technical challenge often associated with larger firms, but within a more agile, entrepreneurial and genuinely influential environment. \n \n You will not be one of many senior tax professionals within a large corporate structure. You will be a central figure in the firm’s next phase of growth, with visibility across the business and the opportunity to help build a corporate tax function of long-term value. \n \n The firm has achieved significant year-on-year growth and continues to attract increasingly complex advisory projects. There is a clear strategy for the future, continued investment in technology and infrastructure, and a strong appetite to keep raising standards across the business. \n \n For the right person, there is also the potential to benefit from extensive bonus incentives and longer-term equity participation. \n \n Your Profile \n \n This is a senior appointment, so it is essential that you already have a proven background in corporate tax advisory. \n \n Ideally, you will have: \n \n\n • CTA, ACA, ACCA or CA qualification\n, • Strong experience within corporate tax advisory\n, • Experience advising owner-managed businesses, privately owned groups or entrepreneurial companies\n, • The ability to lead complex advisory conversations and explain technical matters clearly\n, • Experience advising on corporate restructures, transactions, reorganisations or business disposals\n, • Strong technical knowledge and the ability to apply tax legislation within commercial scenarios\n, • Experience reviewing complex corporate tax work\n, • International tax exposure would be advantageous\n, • The confidence to work closely with business owners, directors and senior stakeholders\n, • An interest in helping to develop and grow a corporate tax advisory function\n\n \n This role would suit an experienced Senior Corporate Tax Manager, Corporate Tax Manager or Senior Corporate Tax Advisor who wants to move into a more entrepreneurial, advisory-led environment offering genuine influence and long-term opportunity. \n \n For further information or a confidential discussion, please get in touch.

With multiple sites across the UK and Ireland, a reputation for exceptional staff retention and ambitious plans for future, they are now investing in a brand-new Engineering Manager position to transform how engineering is delivered across the business. This isn't a role where you'll simply inherit established processes. Instead, you'll have the opportunity to build the engineering function from the ground up, driving consistency across multiple locations, reducing reliance on external contractors, and creating a long-term engineering strategy that will support the business for years to come. If you're someone who enjoys improving infrastructure, leading projects, influencing senior stakeholders and implementing change, this is the kind of opportunity that doesn't come around often. The RoleReporting directly to the Managing Director, you'll take ownership of engineering activity across several UK sites, becoming the technical lead for all engineering and maintenance operations. Initially, you'll spend time travelling with senior leadership to understand each depot, its equipment, infrastructure, and operational challenges before developing your own engineering roadmap and long-term improvement strategy.

Clients may be preparing to sell a business, restructuring their personal affairs, planning for succession, relocating internationally or considering how best to protect and transfer wealth to future generations. \n \n You will work closely with the firm’s senior leadership team, leading complex assignments and becoming a trusted adviser to clients whose personal, family and business interests are often closely connected. \n \n Rather than simply responding to tax matters as they arise, you will take a proactive approach, identifying planning opportunities and helping clients make informed long-term decisions. \n \n What You’ll Be Doing \n \n Your responsibilities will include: \n \n\n • Managing and developing relationships with high-net-worth and ultra-high-net-worth individuals\n, • Advising entrepreneurs, shareholders, company directors and privately wealthy families\n, • Delivering advice on income tax, capital gains tax and inheritance tax\n, • Supporting clients with succession, estate and intergenerational wealth planning\n, • Advising shareholders before and after business sales, investments and other transactions\n, • Providing guidance on trusts, family investment companies and other wealth-holding structures\n, • Supporting clients with residence, domicile and international personal tax matters\n, • Working alongside corporate tax and transaction specialists where clients have connected business interests\n, • Reviewing complex technical work and ensuring consistently high standards\n, • Helping to coach and develop less experienced members of the tax team\n, • Identifying opportunities to broaden client relationships and improve service delivery\n, • Contributing to the continued development of the firm’s private client tax offering\n\n \n A Different Kind of Tax Firm \n \n This is not a traditional, compliance-heavy accountancy practice. \n \n The business has been built around providing technically strong, commercially relevant advice to ambitious clients with increasingly complex requirements. \n \n You will be trusted to manage your own relationships, lead advisory conversations and use your judgement rather than working within a rigid corporate structure. \n \n The firm continues to invest in its people, technology and infrastructure, with a clear strategy for further growth. You will join at a point where you can make a visible contribution to how the private client function develops. \n \n For the right person, the package may also include significant performance-related bonus incentives and the potential for longer-term equity participation. \n \n What We’re Looking For \n \n You will already have a strong background in private client tax and be comfortable advising clients on complex and sensitive financial matters. \n \n Ideally, you will have: \n \n\n • CTA, ACA, ACCA, CA or an equivalent professional qualification\n, • Strong private client or personal tax advisory experience\n, • Experience working with high-net-worth individuals, entrepreneurs or business-owning families\n, • Knowledge of income tax, capital gains tax and inheritance tax\n, • Exposure to trusts, succession planning or wealth structuring\n, • The ability to interpret legislation and apply it to complex real-life situations\n, • Excellent communication skills and the confidence to lead senior client conversations\n, • Experience reviewing work and supporting the development of junior colleagues\n, • International private client tax experience would be advantageous\n, • A proactive, commercial and relationship-led approach\n\n \n Applications are welcomed from established Private Client Tax Managers, as well as ambitious Assistant Managers or Senior Private Client Tax Advisors who are ready to step into a broader role. \n \n For further information or a confidential discussion, please get in touch.

Tax Advisory Manager \n Fully Remote \n £65,000–£75,000 per year plus bonus \n Job Description \n Our client is an award-winning, high-growth tax and strategic advisory firm working with entrepreneurs, privately owned businesses, high-net-worth individuals and ambitious companies across the UK and internationally. \n This is a fully remote UK-based role focused on tax advisory, not compliance. \n The firm has built a strong reputation for combining technically robust tax advice with a highly commercial, entrepreneurial approach. Its leadership is well respected within the market, and the business continues to attract increasingly sophisticated clients, projects and professional partnerships. \n Tax sits at the heart of a broader advisory proposition, supporting founders and business owners through growth, restructuring, investment, transactions, wealth planning and major commercial decisions. \n The Bigger Picture \n Alongside its established tax capability, the firm now provides Strategic Business Advisory, working directly with founders to understand what they ultimately want to achieve and helping them build the business required to get there. \n That could include preparing for a future sale, increasing enterprise value, securing investment, improving profitability or developing the infrastructure needed for further growth. \n Tax therefore forms part of a much wider commercial relationship with clients rather than operating as an isolated technical service. \n Over time, the wider business also intends to expand into complementary areas including Corporate Finance and Debt Advisory. \n The scale of the opportunity is already significant. \n The senior team is currently involved in multiple live deals involving privately owned businesses with turnover ranging from approximately £10m to £60m. \n The firm is also developing strategic relationships with established professional-services organisations, including a wealth management business responsible for approximately £4bn of client assets. \n Alongside this, the business is currently delivering an international programme of highly exclusive advisory events attracting prominent speakers, entrepreneurs and ultra-high-net-worth attendees with combined wealth exceeding £1bn. \n The Role \n You will work closely with the senior leadership team, taking responsibility for complex tax advisory work while contributing to the continued development of the tax function. \n Clients include founder-led businesses, scaling companies, entrepreneurs and private clients with significant wealth. \n Many are growing, restructuring, expanding internationally, preparing for investment, completing transactions or considering future exits. \n You will provide technically strong, commercially relevant advice across corporate and private client tax matters. \n Typical responsibilities will include: \n\n • Leading complex tax advisory engagements\n, • Advising entrepreneurs, owner-managed businesses and high-net-worth individuals\n, • Supporting clients through restructuring, growth, succession, investment, transactions and international expansion\n, • Advising across corporate tax, private client tax and wider strategic tax planning\n, • Working directly with founders around significant commercial and wealth-creation events\n, • Applying tax legislation to complex commercial situations\n, • Managing senior client relationships\n, • Reviewing technical work and supporting the development of the wider tax team\n, • Contributing to the evolution of the firm’s wider advisory proposition\n\n Why This Opportunity Stands Out \n This role offers the quality of clients, complexity of work and commercial exposure often associated with much larger firms, but within a more agile and entrepreneurial environment. \n You will be joining during a significant period of growth rather than stepping into a rigid, established structure. \n The business is ambitious, fast-moving and prepared to invest, with increasing exposure to transactions, strategic advisory work, private wealth and sophisticated founder-led businesses. \n The role is also fully remote, providing genuine flexibility without sacrificing access to complex work, senior decision-makers or high-calibre clients. \n For someone who enjoys technical tax but also wants to understand the wider commercial story behind a client’s business, this is an unusually broad opportunity. \n For the right person, there is also the potential for significant bonus incentives and longer-term equity participation. \n Your Profile \n This role is aimed at someone operating at Tax Assistant Manager or Tax Manager level, or a strong Senior Tax Advisor ready to step up. \n You must already have a proven background in tax advisory. \n We are not accepting applications from candidates currently based outside the UK. \n Ideally, you will have: \n\n • CTA, ACA, ACCA or CA qualification\n, • A strong background in corporate and/or private client tax advisory\n, • Experience contributing to or leading complex advisory work\n, • The confidence to advise entrepreneurs, owner-managed businesses and high-net-worth individuals\n, • Strong technical knowledge with the ability to apply tax legislation commercially\n, • Strong commercial awareness\n, • Exposure to restructuring, transactions, succession, investment or international tax would be advantageous\n\n This is not a compliance-focused tax role. \n It would suit a Tax Assistant Manager or Tax Manager who wants to join an ambitious, entrepreneurial advisory business offering genuine influence, high-calibre work, flexibility and significant long-term upside. \n For more information or a confidential discussion, please get in touch.
