- Assisting with Enterprise Investment Scheme matters, including qualifying status reviews, advance assurance applications and compliance statements
- Preparing and reviewing corporate, partnership and personal tax computations, advisory reports and HMRC filings

- Managing deadlines across a varied client portfolio
- Supervising, mentoring and reviewing the work of junior team members
- Researching complex technical matters and presenting conclusions clearly and concisely
