Assistant Tax Manager - Leeds
Campbell Grove Talent are looking to speak to tax professionals who are ready for their next step.
What’s on offer:-
- £45,000 - £50,000 FTE
- 25 days holiday
- 1 day WFH
- Flexible hours
- Onsite parking
- Potential to consider a 4-day week for the right person
- Long term development opportunities
If you enjoy personal tax, want more responsibility and like the idea of working somewhere you’ll actually know the Partners, this could be worth a look.
We are recruiting for an established independent accountancy practice just outside Leeds city centre. It’s easily accessible by public transport, there’s onsite parking and it’s a friendly, established team.
This isn’t a role where you’ll be one small part of a huge tax department.
Reasons to use Rodeo
I’m in my final year doing Economics and I don’t know whether to apply for grad schemes now or do a masters first. What do you think?
Honest answer — it depends on where you want to end up. A lot of top grad schemes (Big 4, civil service, banking) don’t need a masters. Let’s look at the ones you’d be competitive for now, and we can decide if a masters actually adds anything.
Also worth knowing: most autumn 2026 applications are open now. Timing matters more than you think.
Start with a chat, not a search bar
Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
