Yeovil, United Kingdom Old Mill Full time

An exciting opportunity has arisen for an experienced Rural Accountant with a focus on tax to join our Rural Team as an Assistant Manager, supporting our Senior Rural Advisers with a diverse and growing portfolio of rural businesses.

What you'll do:

  • Lead tax-specific work within the wider rural portfolio, collaborating closely with the Rural Advisers and liaising with the Tax Team to ensure the effective delivery of tax services while enhancing the overall client experience.
  • Work closely with the Rural Advisers and the wider Rural Team to address the unique tax needs of rural businesses, ensuring deadlines and compliance requirements are met.
  • Support the Rural Advisers in preparing tax-related reports, accounts, and non-compliance work, alleviating their workload and ensuring seamless client service.
  • Review and oversee the preparation of tax returns and accounts, focusing on delivering accurate, timely, and tailored advice to rural clients.
  • Proactively identify opportunities to add value to rural businesses, offering practical tax solutions and collaborating with specialists within the firm where necessary.
  • Build strong, long-term relationships with your rural clients, providing them with expert guidance on both tax and broader accountancy matters.

This role offers a fantastic opportunity for an accountant with a passion for the rural sector and tax expertise. While prior rural experience is beneficial, what matters most is your drive to support our rural clients and help them achieve their goals.

Requirements

The ideal candidate will have a solid accountancy background, with experience handling the tax aspects of client work.

You will also have excellent communication skills to build strong relationships with rural clients and colleagues. Previous experience in a similar role within a practice environment is essential, along with the ability to manage multiple client accounts and deadlines effectively.
