You will:

• Direct work within corporation tax compliance on varied portfolios of clients through a team of seniors and trainees

• Plan client work with technical competency in mind, ensuring that team members are appropriately matched to clients and that team members are provided with the right level of experience to aid their progression

• Assist the heads of department in the firm in putting in place departmental strategies, new initiatives and sharing technical knowledge with supervisors, seniors and trainees

• Take an active role in the overall development and progression of the team, yourself and BKL

You will be ideal for this role if you have:

• Tax qualified via academic qualification (CTA/ATT) or experience. However, we are open to different backgrounds.

• Experienced in working in a corporation tax compliance department.

• Able to communicate clearly with commercial skills, building a mutual understanding with clients about how BKL can support with their tax affairs and other related matters

• Able to prioritise tasks with resources in mind

• Able to support the team by applying strong interpersonal skills and intuition

• Forward-thinking and adaptable

We know you have a lot to offer, which is why we want to give you the freedom to thrive no matter who you are or what your background is. You will have every opportunity to use your creativity in how you approach your work and the support to innovate.

Inclusion, diversity, and talent development are a fundamental aspect of who we are, and we welcome applications from candidates who share and champion these values. You will play an integral part in helping to make BKL a great place to work with a sense of belonging for everyone.

High challenge, high support

If you enjoy problem-solving and a fast-changing environment, you will thrive in this role.

As in all BKL roles, you will be able to take a flexible approach: balancing independent work with teamwork, and remote working with time in the office with colleagues.
