A highly respected independent accountancy and advisory firm is looking to appoint an ambitious Corporate Tax Assistant Manager or Manager to join its growing London tax team.

The firm is recognised as one of the leading advisers to clients across the creative, entertainment, media and music sectors, alongside fast-growth entrepreneurial businesses, international groups and high-net-worth individuals.

The Team

As part of a growing Corporate Tax team, you will work closely with Partners and Directors on a broad range of advisory and compliance projects for owner-managed businesses, multinational groups, international investors and clients operating within the entertainment, media and music industries.

The position provides a balanced mix of compliance oversight and high-value advisory work, with increasing involvement in international tax planning, corporate restructuring and transaction support.

* Reviewing and overseeing corporation tax compliance work
* Advising clients on corporate tax planning opportunities
* Supporting mergers, acquisitions and corporate restructuring projects

* Working directly with clients and their advisers on strategic tax matters
* Identifying tax risks and opportunities across client groups
* Supporting business development initiatives and client relationship management
* Mentoring and reviewing the work of junior team members
* Keeping up to date with UK and international tax developments

Candidates are likely to come from a Top 20, Mid-Tier or Big 4 environment and be looking for greater client exposure, more meaningful advisory work and accelerated career progression and genuine interest in the industry.

You will ideally have:

* Strong UK Corporate Tax experience
* Exposure to both compliance and advisory work
* Experience managing client relationships
* Excellent communication and stakeholder management skills
* A commercial and solutions-focused mindset
* The ability to manage multiple projects simultaneously
* Strong analytical and technical capabilities
* A desire to develop within a fast-growing and ambitious team environment

This opportunity provides far more than a traditional corporate tax role. You'll gain exposure to an exceptional client base, including internationally recognised businesses within the creative and entertainment sectors, while working on complex domestic and international projects that have real commercial impact.

For ambitious Assistant Managers looking to step up, or Managers seeking a faster route to Senior Manager, this represents an excellent opportunity to join a well-established firm with a reputation for developing and promoting talent.
