Are you a seasoned tax professional looking for more than just compliance work? We're seeking a confident, proactive Senior Tax Manager to join a highly regarded and friendly private client team based in Alton. This is your chance to step into a truly client-facing role, where you'll have the autonomy and influence to shape your portfolio, lead tax planning projects, and work directly with partners.

As a Senior Tax Manager, you'll be responsible for supporting and overseeing a portfolio of around 900 private clients—primarily high net worth individuals (HNWIs), company directors, trusts, and estates. This isn't just about maintaining compliance; it's about building strong client relationships, spotting opportunities, and delivering impactful, high-level tax advice.

You'll work closely with partners on complex personal tax planning projects, play a key role in growing the tax client base, and contribute to the strategic direction of the team.

Your Role as Senior Tax Manager Will Include:

* Leading and supporting personal tax compliance across a broad client base, with a strong advisory focus.

* Managing complex tax planning assignments related to HNWIs, trusts, estates, and business owners.

* Building trusted relationships with clients and becoming a go-to expert on their evolving tax needs.

* Overseeing workflow and mentoring team members, ensuring high standards and timely delivery.

* Staying ahead of legislative changes and translating technical updates into clear client guidance.

* Collaborating with partners on business development and identifying new service opportunities.

What We're Looking For:

* Extensive experience in personal tax, ideally in a practice setting, with proven technical and advisory skills.

* CTA-qualified or equivalent experience (ATT also considered).

* A confident communicator, capable of managing client relationships and mentoring junior staff.

* Highly organised with the ability to manage complex workloads and spot planning opportunities.

* A broad understanding of accountancy is helpful but not essential.

This is an outstanding opportunity for a Senior Tax Manager who wants a genuinely varied and rewarding role within a collaborative and supportive firm. You'll be recognised for your expertise, given freedom to grow, and have a clear path for career progression.
