Tax Advisory Opportunity at BDO
Ideas | People | Trust
At BDO, we are more than an accountancy and business advisory firm. We work alongside ambitious, entrepreneurial organisations, delivering the advice and solutions they need to succeed in a fast-changing world.
Our clients are some of the most dynamic businesses in the UK — growth-focused, innovative, and central to powering the economy. We work directly with the owners and leadership teams behind these organisations, helping them make confident, informed decisions.
Why Join BDO?
Joining BDO means becoming part of a collaborative, high-performing environment where expertise, curiosity, and fresh thinking are valued. Our Tax team is known for its energy, diversity, and commitment to delivering outstanding client service across the UK and internationally.
With specialists across a broad range of tax disciplines, we work together to deliver practical, commercially focused solutions. From employment tax and international tax to mergers and acquisitions, VAT, and expatriate tax, our work is varied, challenging, and constantly evolving.
If you are looking for a role that offers both professional growth and meaningful impact, BDO will give you the support, trust, and autonomy to shape your career.
The Opportunity
We are seeking a talented tax professional to join our **National Expatriate Tax Service** team. This role offers the chance to advise a diverse portfolio of clients on complex and rewarding tax matters while working closely with senior leaders across the firm.
You will play a key role in delivering both advisory and compliance services, maintaining strong client relationships, and contributing to the continued development of the team and wider practice.
What You’ll Be Doing
In this position, your responsibilities will include:
Providing expert tax advice to a broad client base as part of the National Expatriate Tax Service
Managing your own portfolio of clients, including oversight of billings and cash collection in line with firm standards
Advising on a variety of tax issues, including succession planning, restructuring projects, and the review of complex tax returns
Ensuring work is delivered efficiently and with appropriate risk management
Collaborating with directors and partners on business development initiatives and practice management activities
Supporting and developing junior team members through coaching, guidance, and day-to-day leadership
Contributing to BDO’s wider strategy and values, while helping to foster an inclusive and collaborative culture
What We’re Looking For
To succeed in this role, you will bring strong technical capability, commercial awareness, and a client-focused approach. We are particularly interested in candidates who can confidently manage complexity while building trusted relationships internally and externally.
You will ideally have:
Strong experience in UK private client tax or expatriate tax
The ability to advise on complex tax matters and identify wider client issues and opportunities
Experience managing a client portfolio, including billings and cash collection responsibilities
A strong commitment to client service and a proven ability to build lasting relationships
Confidence working with senior client stakeholders, management teams, and decision-makers
A degree-level education and/or CTA, ACA, or equivalent professional qualification
How You’ll Work
This role is ideal for someone who is proactive, organised, and comfortable taking ownership of their work. You will need to balance independent responsibility with strong collaboration, working closely with senior managers, directors, partners, and clients to deliver the highest quality service.
You will also be encouraged to spot opportunities for improving client delivery, expanding services, and contributing to the ongoing success of the team.
A Career That Moves Forward
At BDO, we believe success looks different for everyone. That is why we are committed to helping you define what success means to you — and giving you the support, experiences, and opportunities to achieve it.
Whether you want to deepen your technical expertise, broaden your client exposure, or take on leadership responsibilities, you will find an environment that encourages growth at every stage.
Be Yourself at BDO
We want you to bring your whole self to work. At BDO, individuality is recognised, contributions are valued, and achievements are celebrated.
We are committed to creating a workplace where people feel included, supported, and empowered. Our approach to agile working means we offer flexibility that works for individuals, teams, and clients alike.
Why This Role Stands Out
Join a respected and people-focused firm
Work with ambitious, high-growth businesses
Take on complex, meaningful tax advisory work
Collaborate with experienced leaders and specialists
Develop your career in a flexible, supportive environment
Make an impact on clients, colleagues, and the wider business
Apply to Build Your Future with BDO
If you are ready to bring your expertise to a firm that values insight, collaboration, and trust, this could be the next step in your career.
Join BDO and be part of a team where your ideas matter, your growth is supported, and your contribution makes a real difference.
