A well-established and friendly Accountancy Practice is looking to appoint an experienced Tax Assistant to join their close-knit team. This is an excellent opportunity for someone who is looking for a flexible, long-term role within a supportive and people-focused environment.

The Role You will play a key role within the tax team, supporting a varied portfolio of clients across personal tax compliance and general tax administration.

The role offers a broad mix of responsibilities and regular client interaction.

Typical duties will include:

  • Preparation of personal tax returns
  • Tax Planning
  • Liaising directly with clients via phone, email, and in person
  • Managing HMRC correspondence and queries
  • Supporting with capital gains tax and ad hoc tax-related work
  • Chasing client information and ensuring deadlines are met
  • Assisting with wider tax administration and project work as required

There may also be opportunities to become involved in broader tax planning work over time, depending on experience and interest.

  • Previous experience within personal tax in an accountancy practice environment
  • At least 3 years' relevant experience
  • Strong organisational skills and the ability to manage workloads independently
  • Confidence communicating with clients and building relationships

  • Flexible working arrangements
  • Salary circa £29,000-£35,000 pro rata, depending on experience
  • Pension and additional benefits
