Tax Disputes Senior ​/ Assistant Manager

Tax Disputes Senior / Assistant Manager | Top 30 Practice | London

I am recruiting a Tax Disputes Assistant Manager - or a strong Senior ready to step up - on behalf of a well-established Top 30 firm that's undergoing significant, positive transformation. This is a role with real momentum, supported by a culture that's genuinely collaborative, social and invested in professional growth.

As a Tax Disputes Assistant Manager, you'll work across the full breadth of tax controversy matters, including:

• HMRC enquiries
• COP8 and COP9 investigations
• Voluntary disclosures
• Penalty mitigation and negotiations
• Tax risk analysis and advisory work

You’ll handle client and HMRC correspondence, oversee compliance deadlines and collaborate closely with the Head of Tax Disputes and wider tax, legal, and compliance teams. The role offers meaningful autonomy - you’ll quickly develop and manage your own portfolio.

For the Tax Disputes Assistant Manager position, the firm will consider candidates at two levels. At Senior level, they’re open to newly CTA-qualified candidates with a background in Private Client or Corporate Tax who have a genuine interest in moving into disputes. At Assistant Manager level, they want someone with post-qualified experience, strong client relationship skills and the confidence to manage their own workload - ideally already operating as a Tax Disputes Assistant Manager or close to it.

In both cases, private practice experience is essential.

This is an exciting time to join a firm with strategic ambition and an impressive senior leadership team. You’ll benefit from:

• Hybrid working (3 days in the office, 2 from home)
• Competitive benefits including private medical, income protection and 25.5 days holiday
• A genuinely sociable, supportive team culture

As an employer, we are committed to ensuring the representation of people from all backgrounds regardless of their gender identity or expression, sexual orientation, race, religion, ethnicity, age, neurodiversity, disability status, or any other aspect which makes them unique. We welcome applicants from all backgrounds to apply and would encourage you to let us know if there are steps, we can take to ensure that your recruitment process enables you to present yourself in a way that makes you comfortable.
