Shape Transactions. Deliver Strategic Advice. Drive Client Success.

Are you an experienced Corporate Tax professional looking for a role that offers genuine advisory exposure, involvement in transactional work and the opportunity to work closely with ambitious businesses and their owners?

We are seeking a Corporate Tax Manager to join a growing and ambitious team in Bury St Edmunds. This is an outstanding opportunity for a commercially minded practice tax specialist who enjoys providing strategic advice, building trusted client relationships, and playing a key role in complex tax planning.

The Opportunity

This role offers a strong mix of corporate tax compliance oversight and high-level advisory work, as well as transactions, restructuring projects and M&A activity.

You'll become a trusted adviser to clients, helping them make informed decisions during key stages of their business lifecycle, from growth and investment through to acquisitions, disposals and succession planning.

Key Responsibilities

• Managing a portfolio of corporate tax clients across a broad range of industries
• Delivering high-quality corporate tax advisory services to businesses and shareholders
• Advising on mergers, acquisitions, business disposals and wider transaction-related matters
• Supporting clients through due diligence exercises and M&A transactions

• Identifying tax planning opportunities and developing bespoke client solutions
• Reviewing complex corporate tax computations and returns
• Working closely with Partners on strategic advisory assignments
• Building and maintaining strong relationships with clients and professional intermediaries
• Supporting business development activities and identifying opportunities to expand services
• Mentoring and developing junior members of the tax team
• Monitoring legislative changes and advising clients on their potential impact

• Significant experience within corporate tax, gained in practice
• Strong technical knowledge of UK corporate tax legislation
• Experience delivering advisory projects and technical tax planning assignments
• Exposure to transactions, restructuring work and M&A activity
• Excellent client relationship and stakeholder management skills
• Strong commercial awareness and problem-solving abilities
• The ability to manage multiple projects and deadlines effectively

What's On Offer?

• A collaborative and supportive culture
• High-quality clients and varied project work
• A friendly, people-focused environment where contributions are recognised and valued

Why Apply?

This is an excellent opportunity to join a forward-thinking firm where corporate tax is viewed as a strategic advisory function rather than simply a compliance service. You'll work on engaging and commercially focused projects and play an important role in helping businesses achieve their long-term objectives, all whilst developing your own career and the tax function within a supportive and ambitious team.
