Can you think beyond the here and now and take a "birds eye view" of things?

Do you love building relationships whether it's with your team or strangers?

Keen to continue studying and gain a professional qualification, and work for the Rebels of Accountancy?


Brilliant Keep an open mind and discover why a Tax role in our Midlands based team could be the perfect career path for you.


A bit about CP.


We are one of the fastest growing accountancy firms in the UK and we have the awards to prove it.

We were voted as the #No1 Accountancy firm to work for in the UK by the Best Companies awards 2021, along with a host of other awards including Employer of the year at the Tolley's Tax Awards.


So, what makes all this happen? Because we are leaving the dull old ways of accountancy behind, making our own rules, and always putting our people at the heart of our success.


What you'll be up to
We have roles available in our Personal Tax team based in our Head Office, East Midlands Airport.

Team duties vary, but day to day you could be:

  • Working in small teams to really understand our clients and what they want to achieve. Then advising them on how to get there
  • Turning complex jargon into simple terms and actions for our brilliant clients
  • Making sure our clients are compliant by preparing and submitting their tax returns
  • Liaising with HMRC around tax returns and gaining tax reliefs
  • Generating new ideas, solutions and spotting opportunities to enhance our client offering
  • Studying for your ATT/CTA Chartered Qualification and keeping up to date with changes to legislation and the impact they may have on our clients
  • Supporting and coaching other trainees as you progress going on to own a small portfolio of clients
  • We'll make sure you're challenged and supported every step of the way with your career development

What we're looking for
Studying for a professional qualification and working is not an easy pathway. You will need to be committed and have amazing project management skills to balance studies and the day job.

You need great attention to detail, a passion for numbers, can think on your feet and problem solve as you go.

As the major part of our work is client based, you need to be comfortable approaching clients and asking questions and really build relationships with them.


We look for people who:

  • Who love asking questions and are great at listening to the answers
  • Are comfortable working on multiple projects and able to manage their own priorities
  • Take ownership of their own development
  • Like working at pace with the ability to turn work around quickly and accurately
  • A logical thinker who can analyse and interpret data.
  • Are able to communicate complex information in a clear and concise way both verbally and in writing.
  • Are curious to find the best way of doing things
  • Can deliver a brilliant client experience
  • Aren't afraid of failure and can turn mistakes into learnings

What's in it for you...
If our people love working here, then they do amazing work.

That's why we offer things like:

  • Open holidays
  • No dress code just "Wear something"
  • Ongoing development and career growth
  • Study support from our very own inhouse student support manager as well as professional memberships
  • Wellbeing events and activities throughout the year
  • Interest free season loan tickets
  • Cooper Parry social/sports clubs
  • Reward & recognition scheme
  • Company wide volunteering days
Play to your strengths, we say. Create a role you're truly passionate about.

We know everyone performs their best when they feel welcomed and supported to bring their whole selves to work.

As an equal opportunities employer, we will work with you to ensure you have all you need to achieve your best.
