Butler Rose are delighted to be working with a growing independent accountancy and advisory firm who are looking to recruit a Senior Tax Adviser/ Manager for their Leeds office.
This is an excellent opportunity to join a forward-thinking firm with a strong advisory focus, a growing presence in Yorkshire, and a genuine commitment to creating a supportive, collaborative and progressive working environment.
The Leeds office is based in modern serviced offices in LS16 and currently operates as a satellite office to the firm's main practice. This office provides car-parking facilities.
The business has ambitious growth plans and is looking for the right person to play a key role within its specialist tax team.
THE OPPORTUNITY
This role would suit an experienced tax professional who enjoys complex advisory work, project‑led assignments and building trusted relationships with clients and professional contacts.
The firm does not undertake audit work, and the tax team operates as a dedicated advisory hub.
The role will focus on delivering high‑quality tax planning and advisory projects, including inheritance tax planning, family tax planning, restructures, trusts, family investment companies, bespoke wills and wider corporate tax matters.
Clients are typically owner‑managed businesses, many with turnovers ranging from £1m to £15m, so this role offers a strong mix of technical challenge, client contact and strategic advisory work.
THE ROLE
As Senior Tax Adviser, you will take ownership of tax advisory projects from planning through to delivery, ensuring advice is technically accurate, commercially considered and clearly communicated.
KEY RESPONSIBILITIES
* Leading and managing tax advisory projects from start to finish
* Preparing project plans, step plans and detailed tax analysis
* Advising on IHT, trusts, family investment companies, CGT, corporation tax, income tax and wider direct tax matters
* Working with solicitors and other professional advisers where required
* Reviewing HMRC clearance applications, filings and project documentation
* Identifying tax planning opportunities and delivering practical solutions
* Maintaining strong client relationships throughout each project
* Supporting, coaching and mentoring junior members of the tax team
* Ensuring work is completed in line with legislation, deadlines and internal standards
ABOUT YOU
You will ideally have the following skills and attributes:
* CTA qualified or equivalent experience
* Strong tax advisory experience within accountancy practice or a professional services environment
* Excellent knowledge of direct taxes in a transactional or advisory context
* Experience working on tax planning projects, restructures or family wealth planning
* Confidence liaising with clients, solicitors and other professional advisers
* Strong technical research and written communication skills
* A solutions‑focused mindset with excellent attention to detail
* The ability to support and develop less experienced team members
* A genuine interest in joining a growing, people‑focused firm
This role will suit you if you are already operating at Senior Tax Adviser/ Tax Manager or similar level, or an ambitious tax professional looking to step into a more advisory‑led position.
WHAT'S ON OFFER
* Salary of £61,000 - £90,000 (dependent upon experience)
* Hybrid working - Open to discussion
* Flexible working hours
* Company car or car allowance option after qualifying period
* Profit share scheme after qualifying period
* Medical insurance after qualifying period
* 30 days holiday, including bank holidays
* Free lunch 4 days per week
* Reward lunches and team building days
* Excellent professional development opportunities
* Supportive, modern and collaborative working environment
