    Tax Accountant - West Mids

    Tax Accountant / Senior Tax Associate

    Midlands | Hybrid (post-probation)
    £32,000 – £38,000 (DOE) + Study Support


    A Tax role that offers more than just compliance

    If you’re currently working in practice and looking for something more; more interesting clients, more variety, and more exposure - this could be the move.

    I’m working with a growing, specialist firm that operates in a very different space to a traditional accountancy practice. The work is fast-paced, client-focused, and offers exposure to complex, high-value financial affairs.

    This is an opportunity to step into a role where you’ll be trusted with your own portfolio, while continuing to develop your technical and advisory skills.


    The role

    You’ll take ownership of a portfolio of clients, supporting them with their day-to-day UK tax requirements, while working closely with senior members of the team.

    Key responsibilities include:

    • Managing your own portfolio of clients, ensuring all compliance deadlines are met
    • Preparing and reviewing UK personal tax returns, including more complex cases
    • Acting as a key point of contact for clients, handling queries and providing clear guidance
    • Liaising with internal teams to gather relevant financial information
    • Supporting on advisory work and developing your technical knowledge
    • Reviewing work completed by junior team members and providing guidance
    • Managing your workload effectively in a fast-paced environment

    What makes this role different

    • Exposure to high-value, complex client work
    • A more commercial and advisory-led environment alongside compliance
    • Clients with more complex financial affairs than a typical SME portfolio
    • A fast-growing business with real progression opportunities
    • A team that will invest in your development and progression

    This is a role where you’ll broaden your experience quickly and move beyond purely routine compliance work.


    What they’re looking for

    • Experience in a personal tax role within practice
    • ATT qualified, CTA studying/qualified, or qualified by experience
    • Strong technical understanding of UK personal tax
    • Ability to manage client relationships confidently
    • Good organisational skills and ability to meet deadlines
    • A proactive approach and willingness to develop

    What’s on offer

    • £32,000 – £38,000 (depending on experience)
    • Full study support (if required)
    • Clear progression opportunities within a growing team
    • Exposure to more complex and interesting work
    • Hybrid working (post-probation)

    The package

    • 23 days holiday + bank holidays
    • Additional holiday with service
    • Pension contributions above statutory minimum
    • Health plan benefits
    • Free parking
    • Ongoing training and development

    Why consider this move

    If you’re looking to move into a role where:

    • The work is more varied and engaging
    • You gain exposure to a different level of client
    • There is genuine room to progress

    Then this is well worth exploring.
