The Role
As part of our advisory team, you’ll support farming and rural clients with complex tax, succession and estate planning matters.

A qualified accountant (ACA / ACCA or equivalent) who has built strong technical foundations through tax compliance and/or accounts work and is now keen to move into a more advisory‑focused role, or
