We are pleased to be working with a leading firm of Chartered Accountants in Cheltenham to find a talented and technically capable Corporate Tax Assistant Manager for a role that offers genuine breadth, a sophisticated and varied client base, and a firm that takes the development of its people seriously, with flexible working, a company pension, and much more on offer.

Crowe Watson Recruitment has a strong presence across the South West and Midlands accountancy market, and the team brings a genuine understanding of the corporate tax landscape in Cheltenham and the wider region to every search it undertakes.

Cheltenham is a prosperous and well-connected commercial centre with a diverse and sophisticated client base, and this firm’s corporate tax team works across a broad and technically interesting range of assignments that go well beyond domestic compliance. As Corporate Tax Assistant Manager, you will support managers and partners in delivering compliance and advisory services across a portfolio that includes cross-border structures, transfer pricing considerations, and the tax implications of international trading and investment activity, alongside more straightforward UK corporate tax work. For a corporate tax professional with a genuine interest in the international dimension of the work and the ambition to develop their expertise in this area, this is a role that offers a strong technical platform and a clear pathway to manager level within a well-structured and forward-thinking practice. You might not meet all the criteria, but if you are passionate about developing yourself and your career, we’d love to hear from you.
