Tax Senior opportunity in Hertfordshire

You'll have the opportunity to:
- Prepare and review UK personal tax returns
- Assist with capital gains tax work involving property, investments and other disposals
- Support inheritance tax planning and estate-related assignments

- Good technical judgement and attention to detail
- Strong written and verbal communication skills
- A professional, commercially aware and client-focused approach
- CTA, ATT, ACA or ACCA qualification, or progress towards one
