Do you want to join a reputable, forward-thinking accountancy practice that values quality, client care, and professional growth?

This is an exciting opportunity for a Tax Senior to join a well-established and growing firm of accountants in Bath. You’ll work with a wide range of personal and corporate tax clients, providing expert compliance and advisory services as part of a supportive and collaborative team.

The Role

As Tax Senior, you’ll take responsibility for managing your own portfolio of clients, delivering high-quality tax compliance and assisting with advisory work. You’ll play a key role in maintaining client relationships and ensuring all tax obligations are met efficiently and accurately.

Key responsibilities include:

  • Preparing and reviewing self-assessment tax returns for individuals, partnerships, and trusts
  • Assisting with the preparation of corporation tax computations and returns
  • Managing your own portfolio of clients and acting as their main point of contact
  • Providing support on tax planning and advisory projects

  • Have solid knowledge of UK tax legislation and compliance processes
  • Be confident preparing tax returns and supporting clients with queries
  • Have excellent communication and client management skills
  • Be proactive, organised, and capable of meeting deadlines
  • Enjoy working collaboratively in a team environment while managing your own workload

Experience in capital gains tax, inheritance tax, or trust work would be an advantage but not essential.

The Firm

You’ll be joining a highly regarded accountancy practice in Bath, known for delivering trusted accounting, audit, and tax services across the South West. The firm prides itself on technical expertise, long-term client relationships, and a supportive working culture.

The team offers a friendly, flexible environment where you’ll be encouraged to take on responsibility, develop your skills, and work towards your professional goals. With ongoing CPD, mentoring, and hybrid working options, this is a firm that truly invests in its people.
