Personal Tax Senior/Manager Vacancy

You know tax, but you’re looking for more than just compliance work and tick-box reviews. You want a role where your ideas are valued, your growth is encouraged, and your work genuinely helps people achieve their goals. At Forrester Boyd, that’s exactly what you’ll find.

We may have been around for over 90 years, but don’t let that fool you. Our average partner age is young, our mindset is progressive, and our business is constantly evolving. We combine the experience of a long-established firm with the energy and ambition of one that’s going places.

This role can be based at any of our offices, which includes:-

We support

we’re happy to discuss flexible working options to support a healthy work and life balance.

We recognise

we celebrate and reward long service awards and promotions.

We socialise

What will your days look like?

No two days are the same here. You’ll have the freedom to manage your own portfolio and the support of a collaborative, down-to-earth team. Your week might include:

Preparing and reviewing Personal Tax Returns for a fascinating mix of clients – from business owners and farmers to professionals and high-net-worth individuals
Helping colleagues across the firm solve tax challenges and build client value
Getting involved in bespoke tax planning projects where your ideas make a difference
Researching new legislation and turning technical insight into practical advice
Spotting opportunities to help clients plan for their future, not just their tax return

This is a role where you’ll be trusted to get on with things, encouraged to share your ideas, and supported to develop into the tax professional you want to be.

Who we're looking for

You will ideally be fully qualified or qualified by experience in ATT and/or CTA – experience counts just as much as exams. If you’ve spent a couple of years in practice and love the buzz of client work, we’d love to hear from you.

You’ll also bring:

A curious, problem-solving mindset
The confidence to build relationships and explain complex things simply
A great eye for detail and a calm approach to deadlines
Team spirit - we work hard, but we enjoy it too

Experience in capital taxes would be a bonus, but enthusiasm, initiative and a can-do attitude matter most.

30

30 days annual leave (inc. bank holidays) - increasing with service

3

Life assurance worth three times salary

5

Purchase up to 5 days additional holidays per year

Why you will love working with us

At Forrester Boyd, we don’t believe in a one-size-fits-all career path. You’ll be part of a supportive, ambitious firm that invests in your growth, trusts you to take ownership, and values your wellbeing as much as your output.

We offer:

Flexible working options and genuine work-life balance
Ongoing professional development and mentoring
A friendly, approachable leadership team
The chance to be part of a respected regional firm with a modern outlook

You’ll join a team that celebrates success, looks after one another, and takes pride in doing great work for great clients.

This isn’t just another tax role. It’s your next big step.
