The Firm:

This national practice has a strong presence across the UK, supporting an impressive range of clients from large PLCs through to local owner-managed businesses. Their reputation continues to grow, fuelled by investment in people, technology, and new service lines. Joining their regional tax team means becoming part of a culture that genuinely prioritises your development, offering breadth of exposure and a clear pathway for progression.

The Role:

As a Corporate Tax Manager, you will lead the delivery of corporate tax services to a varied and often complex portfolio of clients. You will take ownership of managing client relationships, ensuring compliance requirements are met while supporting broader tax planning and advisory projects.

Your responsibilities will include managing and reviewing complex corporation tax returns, including larger group submissions, and guiding the team through the workflow to ensure work is completed accurately, on time, and in line with client expectations. You will oversee a portfolio with a strong advisory focus, managing ongoing projects with input from Directors and Partners, and ensuring advisory checklists and technical conclusions are completed to a high standard.

You will also take a hands-on role in developing more junior team members—delegating appropriately, reviewing their work, offering feedback, and ensuring they gain exposure across compliance and advisory matters.

A key part of this role involves understanding clients’ commercial drivers, sector challenges, and opportunities. You will be expected to handle complex client queries independently, brief junior staff effectively, and maintain strong communication with audit and business advisory teams to deliver a joined-up service.

Commercial awareness is essential, including monitoring WIP, ensuring appropriate billing, developing pricing strategies, attending pre-year-end and completion meetings, and supporting the preparation of proposals, fee quotes, and tenders. You will also contribute to business development by identifying opportunities, cultivating new relationships, and helping secure new engagements for the firm.

This is a role suited to a strong communicator with excellent technical capability who enjoys a blend of compliance, advisory work, client development, and team leadership.

Experience Required:

  • Professionally qualified or qualified by experience (CTA / ACA / ACCA / CA or equivalent)

  • Solid experience developed within an accountancy practice

  • Strong technical grounding in corporate tax compliance and advisory work

  • Ability to manage complex client portfolios and lead client discussions

  • Proven experience reviewing corporation tax returns, including groups

  • Confidence in supervising staff and guiding their development

Benefits:

You’ll be joining a progressive and supportive regional tax team with a strong social culture and a genuine commitment to career advancement. Expect exposure to high-quality technical work, structured development opportunities, and the full suite of benefits offered by a national practice that truly values its people and invests in their long-term growth.

North East of ENgland | BGC897

The Firm:

This well-established and highly regarded firm of Chartered Accountants offers the best of both worlds — the depth and resources of a larger practice, alongside the warmth and flexibility of a genuinely people-focused independent firm.

With a strong reputation across the North East and a high-quality, loyal client base, the firm continues to grow through technical excellence, commercial thinking and trusted client relationships. As part of this continued growth, they are now looking to appoint either a Tax Senior Manager or Tax Director to play a key role in the future development of their tax offering across the region.

The Role:

You will support the regional tax team and their client base, a skilled team who are responsible for the delivery of compliance work while maintaining a strong focus on advisory projects. Working closely with the Partner group, you’ll play a key role in shaping and delivering high-quality tax advice across a varied client base. Your responsibilities will include providing technical oversight, reviewing complex tax matters, and ensuring work is completed to the highest standard. The emphasis of the role lies in delivering advisory solutions — including projects such as IHT planning, R&D claims, and corporate restructuring — as well as supporting Partners with research and strategic input. We appreciate you may not be an expert in both corporate and personal tax, the firm have a number of technical advisors to lean upon, however a preference lies towards private client advisory. In addition, you’ll provide leadership and guidance to the tax team, helping to develop capability and confidence across the department. For those who enjoy client interaction, there is scope to build and nurture client relationships, contribute to planning meetings, and represent the firm at external networking events.

Experience required:

You will be CTA, ACA, ACCA or CA qualified, with a career in practice that demonstrates strong experience across tax compliance and advisory, either in a mixed tax or private client capacity.

This role would suit someone currently operating at Senior Manager or Director level who is ready for a broader leadership role and greater influence.

Experience in areas such as IHT, trusts, residency, and/or corporate reorganisations is highly desirable.

We are looking for someone with a commercial and entrepreneurial mindset — someone who enjoys building relationships, influencing outcomes, and leading from the front. The firm offers genuine progression, including a clear route beyond Director level for the right person.

Benefits:

You can expect a competitive salary and comprehensive benefits package aligned to your level of experience. This is a long-term opportunity with a firm that invests in its people and offers real scope for progression, influence and career satisfaction.

The Firm:

An established accountancy firm operating across Newcastle and the surrounding region are looking for a Corporate Finance Manager to join their business as they continue to support a growing number of SME and entrepreneurial clients with acquisitions, valuations, business sales, raising finance and strategy. Working in a hands on capacity alongside your Corporate Finance colleagues this role requires an experienced professional who can make an impact from the outset.

The Role:

This opportunity offers something genuinely different for a corporate finance professional who may currently feel like a small cog in a large machine. Joining a well-established but agile corporate finance team, you’ll have the chance to take real ownership, build your own profile, and shape your role — all while remaining part of a supportive and well-resourced environment.

Working closely with the Head of Corporate Finance, you will be involved across the full lifecycle of transactions and advisory engagements. The role combines hands-on deal execution with client-facing responsibility and the opportunity to influence how the team continues to grow.

As a Corporate Finance Manager, you will lead and deliver a wide range of assignments including company disposals, acquisitions, strategic valuations, and fundraising mandates. You will take responsibility for managing projects from initial briefing through to completion, coordinating internal resources and external advisers to ensure smooth delivery.

Your work will include preparing detailed financial models, business plans, and transaction documentation such as information memoranda. You will support clients through complex stages of a transaction, including due diligence, negotiations, and completion, acting as a trusted advisor throughout the process.

A key part of the role will be relationship-driven — developing strong connections with clients, funders, lawyers, and intermediaries, while also helping to identify opportunities for new instructions and repeat work. As the team continues to evolve, you will contribute to its growth by sharing ideas, supporting junior team members, and playing an active role in business development activity.

Experience Required:

We envisage this role would suit an experienced corporate finance professional who brings both strong technical capability and a commercial, client-focused mindset. You will be ACA or ACCA qualified (or equivalent) and confident applying your financial expertise to real-world transactional and advisory situations.

You’ll be comfortable preparing detailed financial models, reports, and client-facing presentations, with a strong eye for detail and the ability to clearly articulate your findings. A natural problem-solver, you’ll enjoy working closely with clients, understanding their objectives, and helping them navigate complex decisions with confidence.

Strong communication skills are essential, as you’ll be regularly liaising with clients, funders, legal advisers, and internal stakeholders. You’ll also bring a proactive, motivated approach, enjoying collaboration while being capable of working independently and taking ownership of your projects.

The role suits someone who enjoys autonomy, values visibility, and wants the scope to make a meaningful impact rather than simply delivering a narrow part of a larger process.

Benefits:

This is an opportunity to step into a role that offers genuine influence and visibility within a growing corporate finance team. Rather than being one of many, you’ll have the chance to shape your remit, build your own profile, and be recognised for the contribution you make.

You’ll benefit from exposure to a broad range of high-quality transactions, working directly with experienced leadership and a diverse, entrepreneurial client base. The role offers a balance of autonomy and support, allowing you to develop commercially while continuing to strengthen your technical skillset.

In return, the firm offers a competitive salary and benefits package, flexible working, and a culture that encourages progression, innovation, and long-term career development. For someone looking to move away from rigid structures and into a role where their ideas and expertise genuinely matter, this represents a compelling next step.
