Tax Assistant/Semi Senior (Ref: J11438) Permanent

I am currently supporting a local West Kent-based Firm of Accountants that is looking to appoint a Tax Semi Senior/Tax Senior to their team. They are based in Kent for work-life balance purposes, but their client base is one you would expect to find working for a top London based firm.

They are a reputable firm in providing tax consultancy advice and accountancy support to its client base which has grown its service delivery within a very niche market. The Partners are both Top 10 trained, it is a professional, rewarding, and fast-paced environment where you will be rewarded for your efforts and achievements. At the same time, they can offer a very competitive salary, flexibility with hours, and work-life balance.
