This role will initially include training towards completion of self-assessment tax returns for individuals; completion of self-employed accounts; supporting senior members of the tax team with ad-hoc tax compliance and advisory projects; administrative support for the tax team; and eventually liaising with clients and HMRC over the phone, by email and by letter. You will then transition to the Audit and Accounts team which involve preparing annual accounts from the bookkeeping records; learning about the accounting standards and how to apply them; completion of corporation tax returns for companies and eventually assisting the audit team on audit assignments.
In order to be considered for this role you will have at least three A Levels, C or above (excluding general studies), and including A Level Maths. If a graduate applicant, you will also have achieved a 2.1 or above in your degree. Overall a strong mathematical academic background including excellent GCSE grades is essential, together with an interest in Business and Tax, and the desire to begin a career in practice.
