Senior Tax Advisor (no-compliance)

Senior Tax Associate / Tax Manager - Tax Advisory

The Role

Our client is expanding its tax advisory team and is seeking a Senior Tax Associate or Tax Manager to join its Liverpool office.

This is a pure tax advisory role, focused on supporting owner-managed businesses (OMBs) and high-net-worth individuals (HNWIs). There is no routine compliance work, allowing you to focus on delivering high-quality tax advice and developing your technical expertise.

The position can be tailored to suit either an experienced Manager or a strong Senior Associate looking to progress.

Key Responsibilities:

\n
• Deliver tax advisory assignments for OMBs and HNWIs from initial scoping through to final recommendations.

• Company reorganisations and restructurings
\n
• Share schemes and employee incentives
\n
• Holding company structures
\n
• Inheritance tax and succession planning
\n
• Capital gains tax and business transactions
\n
• Conduct technical research and apply UK tax legislation, HMRC guidance and case law.
\n
• Prepare clear, well-structured reports and recommendations.
\n
• Build and manage client relationships, acting as a trusted adviser.
\n
• Identify planning opportunities and support wider business development initiatives.
\n
• Manage engagements to budget and deadlines.
\n

At Manager level, you will also:

\n
• Take ownership of advisory projects from scoping to delivery.
\n
• Review and develop junior team members.
\n
• Assist with fee proposals and engagement planning.
\n

About You:

\n
• CTA and/or ACA/ACCA qualified, or part-qualified with strong progression towards qualification.

• Strong technical knowledge in one or more areas such as restructurings, share schemes, IHT planning, CGT, property taxation, or residence and domicile matters.
\n
• Excellent report-writing, analytical and communication skills.
\n
• Able to manage a varied workload with minimal supervision.
\n
• Previous experience reviewing junior staff and preparing fee proposals would be advantageous.
\n

What's on Offer

\n
• A genuinely advisory-focused role with exposure to complex tax planning work.
\n
