Your new firm

This forward-thinking Manchester-based independent accountancy firm has a long history of supporting a range of clients across the North West and the wider UK. They employ over 75 staff covering key service lines such as taxation, advisory, accounts/bookkeeping and audit. This firm has a unique portfolio of clients ranging from multi-million-turnover corporate clients, owner-managed businesses and start-up businesses. The need for a Tax Advisory Senior Manager has arisen due to the success and organic growth of the firm as this role will work alongside a strong team of collaborative partners.

Your new role

This is a new addition to the taxation team in Manchester, with this key strategic hire being brought in to handle tax advisory work for the firm. The current tax service line consists of 7 tax advisers, and you will be working alongside an experienced Tax Advisory Senior Manager supporting a wide variety of businesses and owners. You will have your own portfolio of UK and international businesses, working with business owners and gaining involvement in everything from mergers, corporate restructuring (demergers / shares for share exchanges), exit planning and MBOs, Business Investment Relief and remittance planning, stamp duty land tax planning advice, to name a few. This is a varied advisory role where your client exposure will be similar to that of a Big 4 or Top 10 accountancy practice but with a wider breadth of advisory projects.

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.
