Tax Consultant

Our Consultants are responsible for managing a small portfolio of clients and as a candidate, you would ideally have 18 months to 2 years of professional experience with some basic knowledge of corporation tax.

Full study support will be provided to allow you to continue with your professional qualification (ACA, ACA/CTA hybrid or ACCA, paid exams, study leave and paid courses) and you’ll have an experienced mentor to help you continue your personal development.
