Personal Tax Director (Partner Designate), London

We are working with a high quality, non-PE backed London accountancy firm that has built a particularly strong reputation in the Private Client Tax field. They are undertaking Partner succession planning and are keen to appoint a Director whom they can support with progression to Partnership in the short term.

The team advises an impressive client list of HNW/UHNW entrepreneurs, business owners, international families, trusts and family offices. There is therefore scope to handle a broad range of interesting and challenging income and capital taxes planning work.

Very much a client-facingrole, the incoming individual will nurture and develop professional relationships with the existing client base, build their own third-party referral network and (alongside several private client tax Partners) act as a high-profile ambassador for the Private Client team.

The successful candidate will be CTA qualified with a demonstrable track record of advising UK and international HNWIs on IHT and CGT planning, residence/domicile issues, property-related planning and trusts. They will also need to be an accomplished networker and business developer as this will form a key element of their role as they progress to partnership.

This is a great opportunity to join a respected firm and to build one’s career to Partnership within an independently recognised Private Client team.
