Assistant Tax Manager

Your new company
Well‑established and highly regarded independent accountancy practice with a strong regional presence and a loyal client base across the North West. The firm has built a reputation for delivering practical, relationship‑led advice to owner‑managed businesses and individuals, supported by a close‑knit and collaborative team culture. Due to ongoing growth within the Liverpool office, the firm is now looking to strengthen its tax team with an additional hire.
Your new role
Your new role will sit within the existing tax team, working alongside a Tax Manager and a junior team member, making this an ideal opportunity for a tax professional looking to take the next step and position themselves between junior and manager level. The role will offer a genuinely mixed tax workload, covering both personal and corporate tax matters, and you will be involved in the preparation and review of tax returns, compliance work, and supporting on advisory projects as exposure allows. There is flexibility around working hours, and part‑time working will be considered.
What you will need to succeed
You will have prior experience working in a mixed tax position within a UK accountancy practice environment. You may be ATT qualified, part‑qualified, or qualified by experience, and applicants with a broad tax background who enjoy variety in their work will be particularly well suited. You will be comfortable working with owner‑managed business clients and able to manage your own workload with support from senior members of the team. A proactive, team‑focused approach and strong communication skills will be key.
In return
You will join a supportive and people‑focused firm that places real value on flexibility and work‑life balance. The role offers long‑term progression opportunities, exposure to a broad client base, and the chance to develop your technical and advisory experience in a friendly and collaborative environment. A competitive salary and benefits package will be offered, dependent on experience, along with flexible working arrangements.
