About the Firm:
 
This Top 100 accountancy firm is investing early in automation and digital innovation - especially within its Personal Tax division. They’re not waiting for change to happen; they’re shaping it. This is a national team at the forefront of AI-led compliance, helping to streamline repetitive tasks so their people can focus on relationships and strategic advice.
 
The Role:

What You’ll Be Doing:
  • Leading on compliance work, including self-assessment tax returns and related reporting
  • Supervising and developing two junior team members
  • Working closely with senior leadership to support the wider strategic goals of the team
  • Staying engaged with clients throughout the compliance process—this isn’t a back-office-only role
  • Embracing new systems and automation tools being introduced across the department
What You’ll Need:
  • ATT qualified – this is essential
  • Strong experience in personal tax compliance
  • Experience supervising or mentoring junior team members
  • A proactive mindset and willingness to be part of a team that’s modernising the traditional tax workflow
  • Strong communication skills and a client-focused approach
What’s On Offer:
  • Real career progression - path to Manager and Senior Manager
  • The opportunity to work in a national team leading on AI-powered compliance innovation
  • Growing flexibility and hybrid working arrangements (Cardiff-based, but moving toward more flexibility options)
  • A collaborative, supportive culture within a forward-looking firm
