I’m working with a well-established, independent accountancy practice that’s continuing to grow and invest in its tax team. This is a brilliant opportunity for an experienced Mixed Tax Manager who enjoys variety — combining personal tax, corporate tax and advisory work — and wants to be part of a friendly, high-performing firm with a strong reputation.
This role would suit someone who enjoys being close to clients, taking real ownership of relationships, and having the autonomy to run work without being micromanaged.
The firm This is a modern, independent practice with a long track record and a loyal client base. They work with a genuinely broad range of clients — from owner-managed businesses and entrepreneurs through to UK subsidiaries of larger groups.
A big part of the firm’s success is built on long-term relationships: supporting business owners, high net worth individuals and families not just with compliance, but with planning, advice and proactive support as their businesses and wealth evolve.
The role – what you’ll be doing As Mixed Tax Manager, you’ll manage a portfolio of corporate and personal tax clients, acting as the key point of contact and ensuring everything runs smoothly.
You’ll be responsible for:
Client portfolio management
- Owning a varied portfolio across personal and corporate tax
- Being the day-to-day contact for clients and building trusted relationships
- Managing deadlines and ensuring compliance work is delivered accurately and efficiently
- Reviewing and overseeing personal tax compliance work (including more complex individuals)
- Managing corporate tax compliance work for a range of businesses, including groups/subsidiaries
- Ensuring compliance work is technically sound and completed on time
You’ll have significant exposure to:
- Mixed tax advisory work across your portfolio
- Responding to client queries and planning opportunities
- Supporting wider advisory projects as they arise
- Coaching and mentoring Tax Assistants and Seniors
- Reviewing work and improving quality
- Helping the team build confidence and progress
- Full-time or Part-time available
- Hybrid working supported
- A sensible approach to workload and deadlines
- Strong experience in personal tax compliance and advisory
- Strong experience in corporate tax compliance and advisory
- Confidence managing clients directly (and building long-term relationships)
- The ability to manage competing deadlines without stress
- A team-first attitude — someone who’s happy to guide juniors and work collaboratively
- CTA preferred, but not essential
- Qualified by experience candidates are absolutely welcomed
This one is different — it offers:
✅ real relationship-led client work
✅ genuine advisory exposure
✅ flexibility (FT/PT + hybrid)
✅ autonomy and ownership
✅ clear scope to progress as the firm grows
Culture & Values My client is committed to building an inclusive, collaborative, and forward-thinking workplace where people are valued for who they are and supported to achieve their full potential. Diversity, innovation, and continuous development sit at the heart of the firm’s culture.
