NEW GROUND WON'T BREAK ITSELF.

Our Private Capital corporate tax team specialises in looking after entrepreneurial businesses - focusing on the tax affairs of privately owned and private equity backed companies. These are exciting businesses to work with, they are dynamic, entrepreneurial and often fast growing and they need us to help them navigate their increasingly complex tax compliance obligations and support with a range of tax advisory projects as they grow, restructure and consider succession planning.

Every day our teams help people in businesses and communities to do what is right and achieve their goals. Our approach is to work hard to build a strong trusted adviser relationship - we listen to what they want to achieve from a business and a personal perspective and help them do so in the most tax efficient way.

With colleagues across the UK, our Private Capital corporate tax colleagues benefit from being part of smaller local teams as well a larger national team and have the expertise and knowledge of the much wider national tax practice to call upon. The size and agility of the firm means we can draw on specialist expertise from across our tax practice, as well as other service lines, to support our Private Capital clients as they grow.

Joining our Private Capital corporate tax team you will have real variety in both your work, and your clients.

  • Mentor and guide less experienced team members, understanding their career aspirations and helping them to achieve these
  • Provide creative solutions to tax issues both reactively and proactively, taking an active approach to cross-selling wider solutions for other teams around the Grant Thornton network.
  • Play a lead role in pitches and proposals, helping to actively grow the business by through market engagement and demonstrating our expertise to clients and targets, .

    Knowing you're right for us

    Joining us as an Associate Director, the minimum criteria you'll need is a professional qualification (CTA/ACA/ACCA or equivalent) with post qualification experience, and confidence managing a portfolio of entrepreneurial business clients.

    It would be great if you had some of the following skills, but don't worry if you don't tick every box, we'll help you develop along the way:
    • You'll possess strong knowledge of UK corporate tax legislation and a working knowledge of international concepts
    • You'll have reviewed work and supervised people in a tax environment
    • You'll have gained experience working within a professional services environment
    • You'll have experience of managing a large portfolio of tax clients
    • You'll have demonstrable Business Development experience
    • An eagerness to develop deep knowledge of the firm's services and capabilities

      Knowing we're right for you

      Embracing uniqueness, the culture at Grant Thornton thrives on the contributions of all our people, we never settle for what is easy, we look beyond to deliver the right thing, for everyone. Building an inclusive culture, where we value difference and respect our colleagues helps our people to perform at the best of their ability and realise their potential. All gender identities and sexual orientations are welcome to apply for any position within Grant Thornton and our flexible, non-gender specific dress code encourages everyone to dress for their diary.

That's why we give you the freedom to bring your whole self to work and pursue your passions inside and outside of work.

      Beyond the job

      Life is more than work. The things you do, and the people you're with outside of work matter, that's why we're happy to look at flexible working options for all our roles, and we'll always do our best to keep your work and life in balance.

      The impact you can make here will go far beyond your day job.

It's that drive to do the right thing that runs through our every move, grounded in our firm's values - purposefully driven, actively curious and candid but kind.

      We're looking for people who want to contribute, spark fresh ideas and go beyond expectations. People who want to be able to proudly do what's right, for the firm, our clients, our people and themselves. It's how it should be.
