“Don’t be afraid to give up the good to go for the great”
John D. Rockefeller


Consider the enormous benefit to you of joining a growing team. To begin with there is a far greater likelihood of upward mobility. A rising tide does indeed lift all boats, and most careers.
 
The prospects at this firm are some of the best I have encountered. Partners view it as a personal failure if you have to ask for a promotion, as they believe that the responsibility to recognise and reward talent should be with senior staff. In other words, advancement should be the natural consequence of doing your job well.

The firm is a tax focused practice with an extremely impressive growth rate - tax team doubling in size in under five years. The past may not be an absolute predictor of future success, but its certainly a good place to start. The private client tax team is an award winnig team and its people are regular fixtures in publications like Spears.

The team provides high level tax advisory services to a diverse range of private clients, based in the UK and overseas.The team has a high level of expertise in the taxation of non-UK domiciled individuals and offshore trusts. The team also deals with succcesfull entrepreneurs and their families. The nature of the client base means that work is complex and involved. You will deal with all areas of UK tax planning, international planning, IHT and remuneration planning.

You will work closely with the senior team, with a view to improving not just your technical knowledge, but the essential skills that will propel you to senior manager. You will be assigned a mentor who will show you the ropes and act as your internal coach. The work is advisory focused and its vital that you understand and gain the trust of your clients. This will make your job of identifying tax planning opportunities and acting on them much easier.

You can make senior manager in this team in 12 -18 months.
