Tax Investigations Manager
Nationwide
Big 4 firm with a London HQ BUT very Hybrid working (1-2 days in office a week)
Up to £65,000
A leading Big Four firm is looking for a Tax Investigations Manager to join a specialist disputes team with a national client base and a genuinely flexible working model.
This is a strong move for someone who enjoys HMRC enquiry work, tax investigations and dispute resolution, but wants more autonomy, direct Partner exposure and a better route into commercial client development. The role sits within a high-trust team where people are judged on output, not how often they can be seen near a desk looking professionally exhausted.
As Tax Investigations Manager, you'll work directly with an impressive Partner and support a mix of corporate, owner-managed, private client and family office matters. Based Nationwide, the team has a strong internal network of clients and referrers, giving you the chance to build business development confidence without having to start from a cold market.
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.
