About the role:
The market for tax professionals in our region is currently picking up pace and we are now working on more vacancies than at any stage since autumn 2019. Due to this continued growth, we are now looking for someone to take responsibility for a portfolio of clients and candidates, as well as helping us to keep the business moving forwards.
Your role with us will give you responsibility for managing relationships with our fantastic clients and candidates as well as increasing our market share in targeted areas. You will be fully supported by one of our directors, but have free reign to work autonomously, in a way that suits you.

• be a team player
• have the same ethos and share our cultural values (see below)
