Senior Tax Accountant West Midlands | Up to £55,000 If January felt like survival mode rather than professional work, this might be the role you were hoping existed. Many experienced tax seniors reach a point where they’re capable of advising clients… but most of their time is still spent clearing compliance deadlines and firefighting during busy season. This role is different. I’m working with a well-established independent practice where tax is treated as a service line, not just a compliance function. The partners actively involve the tax team in client discussions and planning — not just after year-end, but throughout the year.

Your work will include: • Reviewing corporation tax and self-assessment returns • Providing tax planning advice to owner-managed businesses • Supporting clients with HMRC enquiries • Advising on remuneration planning and tax efficiency • P11Ds, PAYE Settlement Agreements and VAT queries • Working alongside partners on advisory projects • Mentoring junior staff You won’t just prepare ...
