Our client, a well-established UK professional services firm, is looking for a Corporate Tax Director to take on a key leadership role within their Corporate Tax practice in London, with a clearly defined pathway to Partner attached.

Why This Firm

This is a firm recognised externally for the quality of its employer offering, holding Gold accreditation from Investors in People and a place on a national list of top UK employers. For a Director-level hire weighing up long-term fit as much as immediate remit, that kind of independent validation tends to matter, particularly at a firm that's also been steadily climbing the industry rankings.

What The Job Actually Involves

This is a predominantly advisory-led role, focused on leading complex corporate tax projects across a broad client base, ranging from owner-managed businesses through to large corporates and international groups. You'll act as a trusted adviser to senior stakeholders, building long-term relationships and shaping commercially focused tax solutions rather than just compliance work.

You'll take ownership of significant projects end to end, managing scope, risk, budgets and delivery. Business development sits alongside this: networking, client engagement, and identifying new advisory opportunities as the practice grows. You'll also play a part in shaping the wider strategy of the Corporate Tax service line and lead and mentor your team.

What You'll Need

• CTA, ACA or ACCA qualified (or equivalent), currently operating as a Director or an experienced Senior Manager ready to step up
• Strong advisory experience, with the confidence to lead complex projects and senior client relationships
• A commercially minded approach, with a genuine track record in business development
• Clear ambition to progress to Partner, backed by strong leadership and people skills

What's On Offer

Alongside a competitive salary and discretionary bonus, you'll get agile working built around core hours, with hybrid working as standard, a strong holiday allowance, and the option to buy or sell additional days. There's a clearly supported pathway to Partner, backed by structured leadership development and succession planning programmes, plus an Employee Assistance Programme and a wider package of additional benefits.

If you're a senior tax professional looking for a genuine leadership role with a real route to Partner, get in touch.
