Job Description

Due to our incredible success this year, and our continued investment in the Technology and High Growth team, we are looking to add an ambitious Tax Director or established Tax Partner to shape our growth in London and in the wider Technology sector. We're killing it.... We're one of the fastest growing accountancy firms in the UK. We've been picking up plenty of awards. And we're hungry for more. We were voted the 8th Best Company to Work For in the UK by The Sunday Times. We've won Audit Team of the Year at The British Accountancy Awards. We were named Best Employer in Tax at Tolley's Taxation Awards. And we were voted Best Place to Work in Europe at the European Engagement Awards. Why? Because we're smashing every accountancy stereotype to smithereens. We're making our own rules. And we're putting our people, their happiness and our culture at the heart of everything we do. We're challenging grey... We're challenging boring. We're tearing down the status quo. We're finding and retaining individuals who have an appetite for growth and disruption to match that found in the startups and scale-ups in the technology community. We do that whilst maintaining the quality and agility of advice high growth companies need. Our people engagement scores are through the roof - and our people are fully engaged in everything we do - from how we embrace technology and workplace design, to how we create innovative and flexible working patterns that have a positive impact on the service our clients receive and our peoples' lives. Our culture is who we are and it shapes our strategy and the experience for our clients. If you're looking to combine a career in practice with an unrivalled culture and an unmissable personal growth opportunity, we should talk. We're building a truly modern workplace culture... We've always believed in trusting our people to make the right decisions for themselves. From how you dress (our only rule is 'wear something') to when you work (we have no 'core hours') and how often you holiday (we have unlimited holiday). Recently, we've just introduced another game-changer, which we call 'Work From Anywhere. Forever' (WFAF) - built on freedom, trust and choice. Play to your strengths, we say. Create a role you're truly passionate about. Then, work flexibly to design a life that's right for you. Tired of the draining experience in your current audit firm? It's different here.
