Client Details

Our client is a well-established and highly regarded independent firm of Chartered Accountants and Tax Advisers based in the heart of Bath. The practice supports an extensive portfolio of businesses, owner-managers, individuals and families, providing comprehensive accounting, business and taxation advice. Strong client relationships sit at the heart of its approach, with an emphasis on understanding clients' circumstances and delivering practical, proactive advice rather than simply completing compliance work.

Its tax work encompasses both business and private client matters, including tax efficiency, CGT, IHT, trusts, estate planning and wider tax consultancy.

Description

Joining the team as a Tax Senior, you will take responsibility for a varied portfolio of tax clients while working closely with experienced colleagues across the wider practice.

• Managing a portfolio of tax clients and developing strong ongoing relationships

• Assisting with tax planning across areas including Income Tax, CGT and IHT

• Acting as a key point of contact and explaining taxation matters clearly to clients
• Working alongside accounting and other specialist colleagues to provide integrated solutions
• Contributing to more complex tax assignments as your experience develops
• Supporting business development initiatives and the continued growth of the practice

The firm's wider approach is centred around providing comprehensive advice throughout the different stages of a client's business, personal and financial affairs, making this particularly suited to someone who enjoys looking beyond straightforward compliance.
