About the Role

Remote | Freelance | £100 per hour

Technical tax expertise. Interesting advisory work. Complete flexibility.

I'm looking for an experienced Tax Consultant to support a range of complex UK tax advisory projects on a freelance basis.

This isn't a compliance-heavy position. You'll be brought in for your technical knowledge — researching complex tax issues, identifying planning opportunities and turning legislation into clear, practical advice that clients can actually understand and use.

You'll work remotely, manage your own assignments and have support from the wider team around administration and client relationships.

The Work

You'll be involved in a broad range of advisory assignments, from researching technical tax issues through to presenting your recommendations directly to clients.

Your work will include:

  • Researching complex UK tax matters and providing practical recommendations.
  • Preparing detailed, high-quality tax advisory reports.
  • Holding video meetings with clients to discuss tax planning and technical advice.
  • Reviewing client circumstances to identify potential tax risks and planning opportunities.
  • Explaining complex legislation in straightforward, understandable terms.
  • Working with the internal team to gather information and clarify technical points.
  • Keeping up to date with changes to UK tax legislation and HMRC guidance.
  • Using AI-powered research tools to support technical research and report preparation.
  • Managing multiple assignments and delivering work within agreed deadlines.

Your Technical Background

You'll need strong knowledge across:

  • Stamp Duty Land Tax (SDLT)
  • Inheritance Tax (IHT)
  • Capital Gains Tax (CGT)
  • Income Tax
  • National Insurance Contributions (NICs)

Knowledge of Corporation Tax and VAT would also be beneficial.

About You

You'll be an experienced tax professional who's comfortable being given a complex issue, researching it thoroughly and producing a clear answer for the client.

You'll ideally have:

  • CTA, ATT, ACA, ACCA, STEP or an equivalent tax qualification.
  • Strong technical knowledge of UK taxation.
  • Experience preparing detailed tax advisory reports.
  • Confidence conducting client-facing meetings.
  • Excellent written and verbal communication skills.
  • Strong analytical and research skills.
  • Confidence using technology and AI-assisted research tools.
  • The ability to work independently and manage your own workload.

What's On Offer?

The proposition is refreshingly straightforward:

  • £100 per hour consultancy rate.
  • Remote working.
  • Flexible freelance arrangement.
  • Varied and technically interesting tax advisory projects.
  • Access to an AI-powered tax research portal.
  • Administrative and client relationship support from the wider team.

If you're an experienced tax professional who enjoys the problem-solving side of tax and wants the freedom of freelance work, I'd be interested in speaking with you.
