Tax Trainee / Part qualified

Do you love help­ing busi­ness own­ers?

Our core mis­sion is Mak­ing Lives Bet­ter. This is cen­tral to every­thing we do.

Prepar­ing a tax return is one thing — but help­ing own­ers by giv­ing them more time, help­ing them to grow their busi­ness, get that new house, take their fam­i­ly on that hol­i­day of a life­time, or help to show them that they can afford to take on a new employ­ee and free up their time is valu­able.

Are you straight-talk­ing with integri­ty, some­one who can cre­ate empa­thy with clients and help them to achieve their goals?

Do you strive to be the best ver­sion of your­self? Not sim­ply set­tling but con­tin­u­al­ly striv­ing and look­ing for new ways to devel­op!

Do you love work­ing as part of a team? When the going gets tough are you the one to step up and play your part? We are always there when it mat­ters: for our team, our clients and the wider com­mu­ni­ty through our char­i­ta­ble work.

Are you will­ing to chal­lenge clients to get the most out of their busi­ness­es and keep them on the straight and nar­row? If you see some­thing wrong are you the one to high­light that and stand against the tide? “No you can’t put that new hot tub through as a busi­ness expense”.

If this sounds like you then take a look at the com­ments below as we are look­ing for a num­ber of peo­ple to join our grow­ing team here at rus­sell + rus­sell.
