Job Description

Most Director roles offer more responsibility.

Few offer real influence over what you're building.

This is an opportunity to join a high-growth, advisory-led international tax consultancy where the UK business is scaling rapidly, and Corporate Tax is a key part of that growth.

The structure is lean, which means this isn't about sitting beneath layers.

It's about stepping into a role where you will:

Lead and develop key client relationships

Deliver complex corporate tax advisory and oversee compliance

Build and shape a team beneath you

Work directly with senior leadership on growth strategy

Play a visible role in how the Corporate Tax offering evolves

The client base is strong - a mix of large corporates, international groups and ambitious businesses - but the real opportunity is in what you can build around it.

The upside:

Earnings that typically outperform mid-tier and often Big 4 equivalents

Guaranteed bonus structures

A clear, performance-led route to Partner

A business growing at pace, creating genuine leadership opportunities

Alongside that, you'll have the flexibility and support expected of a modern firm - hybrid working, home office support, and ongoing investment in your development.

This won't suit everyone.

If you're looking for a structured role with clearly defined boundaries, there are plenty of those.

This is for someone working at a Big 4 who wants ownership, visibility, and a faster route to Partner within a scaling platform.
