Overview
Are you working in corporate finance, audit or a more general tax role and looking for a career change? Whether you are part qualified or currently working as a Senior / Assistant Manager in another team, we want to hear from you.
The Transaction Tax (TT) team are in ‘growth mode’ as we look to become the number 1 TT team advising owner-managed and mid-market businesses across the UK.
In the last 3 years, we’ve won Regional Tax Team of the Year and the Best Tax Employer at the Tolley’s Tax Awards. Why? Because we are leaving the dull old ways of accountancy behind, making our own rules, and always putting our people at the heart of our success.
If you are ambitious, passionate and would find it a thrill to see deals that you have worked on in the news… make sure you read on!
A day in the life of a Transaction Tax Assistant Manager…
