Most tax roles are built around compliance. This one isn't.I'm working with a firm that has one of the largest charity teams in the UK, supporting a broad range of clients across different sectors. The work is varied, but more importantly, the role is set up to be advisory led rather than purely compliance driven.You'll take ownership of a portfolio of clients, overseeing compliance and making sure everything is technically sound, but that's the baseline expectation. The real focus is on advisory and supporting clients with structuring, transactions, property matters, fundraising, and employment tax, and being the person they come to when they need clear, practical guidance.You'll work closely with Partners and other teams across the firm, helping to deliver joined up advice and spotting opportunities where you can add further value. There's also an internal element to the role, reviewing work and supporting junior team members, helping to maintain standards without it becoming a purely people management position.The team itself is in a strong place, but there's still an opportunity to contribute to its growth, whether that's through developing client relationships, supporting business development, or getting involved in training and sector insights.The firm strikes a good balance. It's large enough to offer interesting work and proper technical depth, but small enough that collaboration is genuine and people are given the space to build their own client relationships and develop their careers.This would suit someone who is already managing a portfolio and is comfortable on the compliance side, but is looking for a role where advisory becomes a bigger part of what they do, and where they can have a broader impact.If that sounds like the kind of move you're considering, it's worth a conversation.
