Frequently Asked Questions

What types of tax recruitment services do you offer?

We offer a full range of tailored recruitment services to meet the specific needs of your business, from executive search for senior roles to short-term interim placements. 

Our areas of expertise include:

  • Tax Executive Search: Attracting and placing top-tier tax leaders.
  • Permanent Recruitment: Sourcing high-calibre tax talent for long-term roles.
  • Interim Tax Recruitment: Quickly providing skilled tax professionals for immediate needs.
  • Team Moves: Facilitating complete team transitions with discretion and efficiency.

Why should I choose specialist tax recruiters over general recruiters?

Specialist tax recruiters understand the technical nuances of the tax field, allowing them to recommend candidates who are both technically proficient and culturally aligned with your organisation.

What qualifications are necessary for tax roles in London?

Most tax roles require certifications like CTA (Chartered Tax Advisor) or ACA/ACCA (accountancy). Relevant work experience and a solid academic background are also crucial.

Can you help with both permanent and interim tax recruitment?

Yes, we specialise in both permanent and interim tax recruitment, providing tailored solutions to fit your short-term and long-term hiring needs.

How do Tax roles differ from Accountancy roles in the UK & Europe?

Tax roles focus on advising clients or internal departments on the complexities of tax law, ensuring compliance, and optimising tax strategies to minimise liabilities. Key responsibilities often include corporate tax planning, VAT, transfer pricing, and managing tax reporting and filings.

Accountancy roles, on the other hand, are broader, covering the preparation and analysis of financial records. Accountants manage everything from financial reporting and auditing to budgeting, forecasting, and ensuring compliance with accounting standards like IFRS or GAAP.
