The role will focus on a varied portfolio of HNW individuals, families, entrepreneurs, business owners and trustees, with a strong mix of compliance and advisory work.

This is a particularly good opportunity for someone who wants genuine client ownership, Partner exposure and more complex advisory work, rather than being purely compliance-focused.

There is also scope to develop your management, business development and technical skills as the team continues to grow.

What you'll be doing

• Managing a portfolio of HNW and UHNW individuals, families, entrepreneurs and business owners
• Preparing and reviewing complex UK Self-Assessment tax returns
• Advising on income tax, CGT, IHT and wider estate planning
• Working on international tax matters, including worldwide income and foreign tax credits
• Advising on UK residence and the latest post-April 2025 tax rules
• Supporting clients through HMRC enquiries, settlements and voluntary disclosures
• Advising on trusts, estates and offshore structures
• Providing advice around UK property taxation and property structuring
• Working on de-enveloping and wider property planning matters
• Building strong, long-term relationships with clients
• Reviewing work and supporting more junior members of the team
• Managing workflows and ensuring deadlines and quality standards are maintained
• Getting involved in technical articles and wider marketing/BD activity

What we're looking for

• 3-4+ years' experience in UK Private Client Tax
• Strong experience working with HNW/UHNW individuals, families or business owners
• A solid background across both personal tax compliance and advisory
• ATT, CTA, ACA or equivalent qualification
• Strong technical knowledge across income tax, CGT and IHT
• Good understanding of international/private client tax matters
• Confident communicator who enjoys building genuine client relationships
• Organised, commercially minded and comfortable managing multiple deadlines
• Previous experience reviewing work and supporting junior team members

Experience across offshore trusts, estate planning, international tax or property structuring would be a real advantage.

What's on offer

• Competitive salary depending on experience
• Hybrid and flexible working
• Genuine autonomy and client ownership
• Direct exposure to senior tax professionals and Partners
• A varied HNW/UHNW client base
• Strong opportunity to develop your advisory and technical experience
• Management and mentoring responsibilities
• Opportunity to get involved in business development and marketing
• Clear scope to progress as the team continues to grow

This Private Client Tax Manager / Senior Manager role would suit someone who wants to move beyond straightforward compliance and take on more complex advisory work, greater client responsibility and genuine progression.
