Company: CRA Consulting
Apply for the Senior Tax Accountant
Location: Sheffield
Job Description:

Join a genuinely supportive, well-established independent practice where your future is part of the plan.

Are you looking for more than just another accountancy role?

We’re working with a highly regarded, long-established accountancy practice that has built an excellent reputation through trusted client relationships, quality advice, and a people‑first culture. Unlike larger corporate firms, this practice offers a collaborative and friendly environment where individuals are recognised, supported, and given the opportunity to grow at a realistic and sustainable pace.

Due to continued growth and succession planning, the firm is looking to appoint a Client Manager /Senior Accountant to join their tax team, with a clear long‑term opportunity to gradually take over a portfolio and responsibilities within the team in the longer term.

This is an ideal opportunity for:

  • An experienced tax professional looking for a more personable and balanced environment
  • An accountant currently working within a smaller practice who handles tax as part of a broader role and is now looking to specialise and develop deeper expertise
  • Someone ambitious and technically curious, but who also values culture, flexibility, and genuine work‑life balance

The Opportunity

You’ll become part of a close‑knit and highly respected team, working with a varied and loyal client base across owner‑managed businesses, directors, and private clients. The role offers a blend of compliance, advisory exposure, and client relationship management, with plenty of support and mentoring from senior leadership.

What You’ll Be Doing

  • Managing and developing relationships with a broad portfolio of clients
  • Preparing and reviewing personal and corporate tax work
  • Supporting clients with tax planning and advisory matters
  • Working closely with senior leadership as part of a structured succession plan
  • Identifying opportunities to add value and support clients proactively
  • Contributing to the continued growth and reputation of the practice

What They’re Looking For

  • Practice experience within accountancy and tax
  • Either:
  • Strong tax experience already gained within practice, or
  • A broader accounts/practice background with regular exposure to tax work and a genuine desire to specialise in tax
  • Excellent communication and relationship‑building skills
  • A proactive and team‑oriented approach
  • Someone who values professionalism, collaboration, and long‑term client relationships

Why This Firm?

  • Well‑established independent practice with an outstanding reputation
  • Friendly, down‑to‑earth culture where people genuinely enjoy working together
  • Strong work‑life balance with a sensible and supportive approach
  • Clear long‑term progression and succession opportunity
  • Exposure to interesting clients and advisory work
  • Stable, loyal client base and low staff turnover
  • A chance to build a meaningful long‑term career rather than simply filling a role

If you’re looking for a firm where you can develop professionally, feel valued personally, and become part of a long‑term future, this opportunity offers exactly that.
