Job Description

Description:

Work autonomously for a superior client portfolio with the UK's largest Indirect Tax group. Develop your skill set and establish your own network as you gain exposure across a mix of tax service lines. Joining this team will provide you with an excellent support network to springboard your career with the market leaders in Indirect Tax.

Progress your career, make a difference

The team is regarded within the firm as one of the leading and most successful service lines, with a reputation for being proactive, entrepreneurial, successful and fun to work with .   Unlike other firms they reward employees on merit and not time served and will present you with the opportunity to get involved in high profile cases early on in your career and expand your horizons.
Your skill set will be enhanced as you work across different tax services groups. From an early stage you will find that work is pushed down from the partners to the team providing you with the opportunity to take on responsibility earlier in your career. As you are given the autonomy to establish your own contacts within a client and reach your own solutions your independence will be accelerated. It is up to you to take this independence and build your own network. Whilst autonomy is encouraged the team network will always be there for if and when you need support and advice. 

Work is varied and involves advising on all of the main indirect taxes including VAT, Customs Duties, Insurance Premium Tax and, increasingly, Environmental Taxes.

Responsibilities will include:

- Leading business development initiatives on target accounts, contributing to winning new work 
- Leading existing client engagements, reporting direct to a partner 
- Developing less experienced staff with hands on advice and support 
- Input into development of new market opportunities locally and nationally with an opportunity to lead the market development of the new ideas 
- Contributing to enhancement of relationships with targets and clients 
- Identifying cross service line opportunities 
- Contributing to existing team spirit and ensuring coming to work is fun

Skills Required:

- ATT or CTA or equivalent qualification or experience
- Prior VAT experience gained within professional services or HMRC
- Excellent client facing, relationship building and business development skills, coupled with commercial awareness
- The ability to be proactive, identify opportunity and take early responsibility
