VAT Senior Manager

Location: Bath
We're working with a highly regarded and growing practice to appoint a VAT Senior Manager into their expanding tax team. This is a standout opportunity for an experienced VAT specialist who wants real influence, strong client exposure, and a clear route forward, without the politics and burnout that too often come with senior roles.
Based in Bath, this firm has built a reputation for high-quality advisory work, supportive leadership, and a genuinely grown-up culture within the accountancy industry.

The role

As VAT Senior Manager, you'll take ownership of a varied and interesting VAT portfolio, advising a broad client base that includes OMBs, groups, and more complex advisory-led cases. You'll work closely with partners, mentor junior staff, and play a visible role in shaping VAT services.
This is not a box-ticking compliance role. There's genuine scope to add value, influence clients, and help develop the VAT offering as the firm continues to grow in the accountancy industry.

What they're looking for

Proven experience operating at Manager or Senior Manager level in VAT
Strong technical grounding with confidence in client-facing advisory work
Comfortable leading work, reviewing output, and supporting team development
ACA, ACCA or CTA qualified (or equivalent experience)
