Leading organisations trust us because of the quality of our advice. That quality grows from a thorough understanding of their business, and that understanding comes from working closely with them and building long-lasting relationships. A talented and experienced tax practitioner who loves to autonomously lead relationships, accounts and large and complex projects will accelerate our realisation of the opportunities within the excellent range of relationships and existing accounts which both the corporate tax and wider tax partner group have, as well as extending out even further into the relationships held by BDO Leeds in audit, deals and consulting. This role will be leading the tax compliance and advisory services to a wide range of clients, with a particular emphasis on large and complex corporates with international footprint, private equity backed portfolio businesses and transactional tax work. The primary responsibility will be to deal with all matters relating to leading a portfolio of clients, with a focus on adding wider value for the clients, developing the account teams and taking responsibility for the quality and risk on the assignments delivered. It is expected that this will involve responsibility for a mix of compliance and advisory projects for the portfolio of clients as well leading on one-off project work. A key part of the role requires the individual to actively seek, and keep the Partner informed about, any new business opportunities arising on existing and new clients and a strong, existing personal network will also be valuable. You will provide assistance to Partners in both client work and in the management of the group with the opportunity to drive practice development in key strategic areas.
