Senior Tax Advisor (no-compliance)

Senior Tax Associate / Tax Manager - Tax Advisory

The Role

Our client is expanding its tax advisory team and is seeking a Senior Tax Associate or Tax Manager to join its Liverpool office.

This is a pure tax advisory role, focused on supporting owner-managed businesses (OMBs) and high-net-worth individuals (HNWIs). There is no routine compliance work, allowing you to focus on delivering high-quality tax advice and developing your technical expertise.

The position can be tailored to suit either an experienced Manager or a strong Senior Associate looking to progress.

Key Responsibilities:

• Deliver tax advisory assignments for OMBs and HNWIs from initial scoping through to final recommendations.

• Advise on areas including:

• Company reorganisations and restructurings

• Share schemes and employee incentives

• Holding company structures

• Inheritance tax and succession planning

• Capital gains tax and business transactions

• Conduct technical research and apply UK tax legislation, HMRC guidance and case law.

• Prepare clear, well-structured reports and recommendations.

• Build and manage client relationships, acting as a trusted adviser.

• Identify planning opportunities and support wider business development initiatives.

• Manage engagements to budget and deadlines.

At Manager level, you will also:

• Take ownership of advisory projects from scoping to delivery.

• Review and develop junior team members.

• Assist with fee proposals and engagement planning.

About You:

• CTA and/or ACA/ACCA qualified, or part-qualified with strong progression towards qualification.

• Experience working with OMBs, HNWIs, or in a corporate tax environment.

• Strong technical knowledge in one or more areas such as restructurings, share schemes, IHT planning, CGT, property taxation, or residence and domicile matters.

• Excellent report-writing, analytical and communication skills.

• Able to manage a varied workload with minimal supervision.

• Previous experience reviewing junior staff and preparing fee proposals would be advantageous.

What's on Offer

• A genuinely advisory-focused role with exposure to complex tax planning work.

• Direct access to senior leadership and experienced tax professionals.

• Clear career progression within a growing tax team.

• Study support for candidates working towards CTA, ACA or ACCA qualifications.

• Investment in technology and AI tools to support efficient delivery of advisory work.

• Competitive salary and benefits package, dependent on experience and level.
