I am looking for a Business Services & Tax Director to take on an existing $700k fee base, with clients of genuine mid tier caliber. Equity is available once the fee base is grown to $1.5m.

Working closely with partners and directors on firm strategy and growth initiatives

What We Are Looking For

CA/CPA qualified with strong technical Business Services & Tax experience





Proven experience managing a fee base or portfolio at a mid tier or similar caliber firm

A genuine appetite for business development, with the confidence to back yourself and go after growth

Strong communication and relationship management skills across client and referral networks

Leadership experience or the readiness to lead and develop a team
