Tax Advisory Manager \n Fully Remote \n £65,000–£75,000 per year plus bonus \n Job Description \n Our client is an award-winning, high-growth tax and strategic advisory firm working with entrepreneurs, privately owned businesses, high-net-worth individuals and ambitious companies across the UK and internationally. \n This is a fully remote UK-based role focused on tax advisory, not compliance. \n The firm has built a strong reputation for combining technically robust tax advice with a highly commercial, entrepreneurial approach. Its leadership is well respected within the market, and the business continues to attract increasingly sophisticated clients, projects and professional partnerships. \n Tax sits at the heart of a broader advisory proposition, supporting founders and business owners through growth, restructuring, investment, transactions, wealth planning and major commercial decisions. \n The Bigger Picture \n Alongside its established tax capability, the firm now provides Strategic Business Advisory, working directly with founders to understand what they ultimately want to achieve and helping them build the business required to get there. \n That could include preparing for a future sale, increasing enterprise value, securing investment, improving profitability or developing the infrastructure needed for further growth. \n Tax therefore forms part of a much wider commercial relationship with clients rather than operating as an isolated technical service. \n Over time, the wider business also intends to expand into complementary areas including Corporate Finance and Debt Advisory. \n The scale of the opportunity is already significant. \n The senior team is currently involved in multiple live deals involving privately owned businesses with turnover ranging from approximately £10m to £60m. \n The firm is also developing strategic relationships with established professional-services organisations, including a wealth management business responsible for approximately £4bn of client assets. \n Alongside this, the business is currently delivering an international programme of highly exclusive advisory events attracting prominent speakers, entrepreneurs and ultra-high-net-worth attendees with combined wealth exceeding £1bn. \n The Role \n You will work closely with the senior leadership team, taking responsibility for complex tax advisory work while contributing to the continued development of the tax function. \n Clients include founder-led businesses, scaling companies, entrepreneurs and private clients with significant wealth. \n Many are growing, restructuring, expanding internationally, preparing for investment, completing transactions or considering future exits. \n You will provide technically strong, commercially relevant advice across corporate and private client tax matters. \n Typical responsibilities will include: \n\n • Leading complex tax advisory engagements\n, • Advising entrepreneurs, owner-managed businesses and high-net-worth individuals\n, • Supporting clients through restructuring, growth, succession, investment, transactions and international expansion\n, • Advising across corporate tax, private client tax and wider strategic tax planning\n, • Working directly with founders around significant commercial and wealth-creation events\n, • Applying tax legislation to complex commercial situations\n, • Managing senior client relationships\n, • Reviewing technical work and supporting the development of the wider tax team\n, • Contributing to the evolution of the firm’s wider advisory proposition\n\n Why This Opportunity Stands Out \n This role offers the quality of clients, complexity of work and commercial exposure often associated with much larger firms, but within a more agile and entrepreneurial environment. \n You will be joining during a significant period of growth rather than stepping into a rigid, established structure. \n The business is ambitious, fast-moving and prepared to invest, with increasing exposure to transactions, strategic advisory work, private wealth and sophisticated founder-led businesses. \n The role is also fully remote, providing genuine flexibility without sacrificing access to complex work, senior decision-makers or high-calibre clients. \n For someone who enjoys technical tax but also wants to understand the wider commercial story behind a client’s business, this is an unusually broad opportunity. \n For the right person, there is also the potential for significant bonus incentives and longer-term equity participation. \n Your Profile \n This role is aimed at someone operating at Tax Assistant Manager or Tax Manager level, or a strong Senior Tax Advisor ready to step up. \n You must already have a proven background in tax advisory. \n We are not accepting applications from candidates currently based outside the UK. \n Ideally, you will have: \n\n • CTA, ACA, ACCA or CA qualification\n, • A strong background in corporate and/or private client tax advisory\n, • Experience contributing to or leading complex advisory work\n, • The confidence to advise entrepreneurs, owner-managed businesses and high-net-worth individuals\n, • Strong technical knowledge with the ability to apply tax legislation commercially\n, • Strong commercial awareness\n, • Exposure to restructuring, transactions, succession, investment or international tax would be advantageous\n\n This is not a compliance-focused tax role. \n It would suit a Tax Assistant Manager or Tax Manager who wants to join an ambitious, entrepreneurial advisory business offering genuine influence, high-calibre work, flexibility and significant long-term upside. \n For more information or a confidential discussion, please get in touch.

Senior Business Consultant – Change Management | SAP S/4HANA \n \n £70,000–£90,000 + 10% bonus | North West or South West | Hybrid \n \n You’ve delivered major SAP transformations. You understand how difficult real organisational change can be. Now you want an opportunity where you can have a bigger influence — on the programme, the customer, the people around you and the wider consulting relationship. \n \n We’re looking for a Senior Business Consultant specialising in Change Management to join one of the UK’s major technology and consulting organisations, taking a leading role on a significant SAP S/4HANA transformation programme within complex manufacturing. \n \n This is an opportunity to combine hands-on transformation delivery with senior-level consulting responsibility. \n \n More than just a Change Manager role \n \n You’ll become a trusted partner to the customer, working across an environment that stretches from the manufacturing shop floor through to executive leadership. \n You’ll help shape and lead the change approach, challenge thinking, manage senior stakeholders and ensure transformation is actually being embedded into the organisation — not simply delivered according to a project plan. \n \n You’ll still be close to implementation, but at this level you'll also have a broader view of the programme. \n \n That means overseeing delivery, managing risks, supporting reporting and governance, developing junior consultants and helping ensure the programme delivers value for both the customer and the consulting organisation. \n \n You’ll also work with third-party technology and supply-chain partners, helping coordinate complex delivery and keeping stakeholders aligned. \n \n The person we’re looking for \n \n You’ll already have significant experience delivering SAP S/4HANA transformation and Change Management within manufacturing or industrial environments. \n A background in aerospace, automotive, OEM or other complex manufacturing environments would translate particularly well. \n \n Most importantly, we want evidence of what you have personally delivered. \n \n You should be comfortable talking through major SAP implementations you’ve owned, how you approached organisational change, how you handled resistance, what happened when delivery went off-track and what you personally did to solve the problem. \n \n At this level, you should also be credible with senior and executive stakeholders while still being comfortable engaging operational teams on the shop floor. \n \n Consulting, leadership and commercial exposure \n This role also gives you the opportunity to step beyond pure Change Management. \n You’ll support and develop other consultants, take greater ownership of programme delivery and build an understanding of the commercial side of consulting. \n \n That doesn't mean carrying a sales target. \n \n Instead, we’re looking for someone commercially aware enough to understand customer value, delivery costs, billability and margins, while recognising opportunities where the organisation could provide additional support to the customer. \n \n Experience supporting presales, bids or proposals would be useful, but you don't need to be a salesperson or bid writer. \n \n Likewise, formal line-management experience isn't essential. If you've led workstreams, mentored consultants or helped develop more junior colleagues, we'd be interested in hearing about it. \n \n A few important requirements \n This is not a remote consulting position. \n You must be able to commit to at least 2 days per week on-site in either the North West or South West of the UK. Being physically present matters because successful change in manufacturing requires genuine engagement with the people and operations affected by it. \n \n Due to the customer-specific security requirements associated with the programme, candidates must also be a sole British citizen. Dual nationality / dual passports cannot be accepted for this particular position. You’ll require SC clearance to start and must meet the customer's requirements for future DV clearance. \n \n What’s on offer? \n \n The salary is £70,000–£90,000 plus a 10% consulting bonus, alongside a wider benefits package. \n Beyond the package, this is an opportunity to join a major consulting organisation where you can build your career beyond individual change projects — developing your leadership, commercial and consulting experience while delivering complex transformation for major UK organisations. \n \n If you combine SAP S/4HANA expertise, manufacturing experience and senior Change Management capability, this could be a very interesting next move. \n \n Apply directly or message me for a confidential conversation.

SENIOR DESIGN PROJECT MANAGER - ACCOUNT MANAGEMENT GLOBAL CREATIVE TEAM \n \n A great opportunity for a Senior Design Project Manager to sit at the heart of a growing global creative function, acting as the bridge between marketing stakeholders and the creative team. This is primarily a project management role, but with a strong relationship-management element: you'll become the trusted partner for a defined group of stakeholders, helping them shape what they need before it reaches the creative team. \n \n The environment moves at pace, with a mixture of larger campaigns and multiple smaller, fast-moving projects running simultaneously. You'll need to be highly organised, calm under pressure and confident enough to challenge when a brief isn't ready or a request isn't quite right, rather than simply passing it on and managing the consequences later. \n \n The opportunity is particularly suited to someone who enjoys being proactive rather than reactive. You'll build genuine relationships with your stakeholder groups, understand their priorities and areas of marketing, and become someone they come to early for advice. You'll need enough creative understanding to translate between marketers and creatives, know what information is missing from a brief and understand when to bring in senior creative leadership. \n \n What they need – \n\n • A project manager who can own both delivery and relationships. You'll manage projects from initial scoping through to delivery, while becoming a trusted day-to-day partner for a defined group of stakeholders across the business\n, • Someone proactive rather than purely brief-led, you'll want to understand what's coming down the line, have regular conversations with stakeholders and help shape requirements before they formally reach the creative team\n, • A strong bridge between marketing and creative - you'll be comfortable translating business and marketing objectives into something creatives can work with, while equally being able to explain creative considerations back to stakeholders\n, • As someone confident enough to challenge, you'll be able to recognise when a brief isn't sufficiently developed, ask the right questions and push back constructively rather than simply passing incomplete work into the studio\n, • A calm, highly organised operator - you'll be comfortable managing BAU alongside larger campaigns, juggling multiple priorities and working closely with creative operations and traffic to identify resourcing pressures, dependencies and potential issues early\n\n \n What you're great at – \n\n • Creative project management – you'll have experience managing projects within an agency, studio or in-house creative environment, ideally where you're used to working at pace across multiple concurrent deliverables\n, • Stakeholder relationship management - you'll build trust quickly and be comfortable developing genuine relationships with marketing stakeholders, understanding their objectives rather than simply managing their requests\n, • Briefing and scoping - you'll know how to dissect a brief, identify what's missing and ask the questions needed to turn a vague request into something the creative team can do great work against\n, • Organisation and prioritisation - you'll be excellent at keeping multiple projects, timelines, reviews and approvals moving, while spotting risks and changing priorities before they become problems\n, • Creative and workflow understanding - you'll have enough understanding of the creative process to work credibly with designers and creative leadership, alongside confidence using project/workflow management tools and curiosity about AI-supported ways of working\n\n \n What you'll get – \n\n • Manchester-based, with a hybrid working model expected to be around 2–3 days in the office, with the wider creative team distributed internationally\n, • A role with genuine ownership of both project delivery and stakeholder relationships, rather than being purely focused on tracking projects once a brief arrives.\n\n
