Having worked hard to progress your career through to Partner or Director it is crucial that you choose the very best recruitment consultant to discuss your future career development with and to represent you when exploring future opportunities.

One of our Directors, Mike Longman and Ian Riley always personally deal with all Partners and Directors (and those with aspirations to make the step up imminently). Given their background in the tax profession they are, as a team, uniquely placed to offer an expert and empathetic approach to senior candidates.

Even when they are not actively searching for high level tax specialists, many firms are open to the idea of an exploratory conversation with appropriately skilled Partners or Directors if they believe they can add value to their business. However, if you proceed down this route you will want the confidence that you are being represented by a well-connected consultant who will act with integrity. We have a wide and impressive range of contacts in the tax profession in the North (e.g., our M.D. Mike Longman was also formerly the Chairman of the Manchester branch of the Chartered Institute of Taxation, an office he held for three years), and, since the business was founded in 2003, we have recruited numerous Partners / Directors for clients from Big 4 to local firms. We are happy to provide testimonials from partners we have previously placed who will confirm the degree of confidentiality and professionalism we display.

In keeping with Longman Tax Recruitment’s core philosophy Mike and Ian pride themselves on offering genuinely independent career guidance and building long term relationships with candidates and clients. On more than one occasion this advice to a Tax Partner frustrated in a current role has been to work through the internal issues rather than rush to seek a new firm.

When you are at the latter stages of the interview process we provide expert practical advice in areas such as giving guidance on preparing a business case or financial projections; acting as a sounding board for dry run panel presentations and helping negotiate packages. We also keep in close contact through the resignation process and can provide referrals to other professionals should advice be required in areas such as restrictive covenants.
