Private Client Tax Assistant Manager or Manager

Job Details

Private Client Tax Senior / Assistant Manager - Boutique London Practice
Salary: £45,000 - £55,000 | London's West End | Hybrid

A rare opening has arisen within the private client tax team of a well-regarded boutique practice in London's West End, created by an internal promotion. This is an excellent opportunity for a strong Private Client Senior or Supervisor ready to step up, or an existing Assistant Manager seeking richer technical exposure within a genuinely high-quality portfolio.

The firm

Founded over 70 years ago and based in the heart of London, this multi-partner practice has built an exceptional reputation advising entrepreneurial owner-managed businesses and high-net-worth private clients - in many cases across multiple generations. Despite its boutique size, the quality and complexity of the private client work rivals that of much larger practices.

The team

You'll join a close-knit private client team of around 12, sitting alongside experienced managers and reporting directly to a Director and Partner. The team operates with a strong advisory culture and benefits from genuine exposure to complex, high-value client work from an early stage.

The role

You'll manage a portfolio of approximately 100 private clients, spanning compliance and advisory work across:

• Complex personal tax (including non-domiciled and non-long-term resident clients)
• Offshore trusts and international family wealth structures
• Inheritance tax and estate planning
• Cross-border and multi-jurisdictional matters
• Media, entertainment and IP income (royalties, artists)

You'll act as a key point of contact for client queries, review self-assessment returns for individuals, partnerships and trusts, liaise with HMRC and third parties, and support the development of junior colleagues and trainees.

The candidate

The firm is open on level - a strong Senior or Supervisor looking to step up will be considered alongside those already operating at Assistant Manager level. You'll ideally be CTA qualified or working towards it, with a solid grounding in UK personal taxes. Experience advising non-doms, knowledge of trusts, or exposure to IHT and probate would be advantageous. Familiarity with CCH is helpful but not essential.

The offer

• Salary £45,000 - £55,000
• Study support via Kaplan (where applicable)
• Hybrid working - approximately 1-2 days from home
• Collaborative, social team culture with regular events
• Central London location
