Pure's boutique tax team have a focus on recruiting for niche tax specialists and smaller independent firms. Our consultant, Paul Dunne has seen significant growth in this area recently which offers diverse and rewarding careers, with remuneration packages in many cases on a par with the larger firms.

Sustained performance

Despite the economic downturn and general levels of recruitment into the larger firms tailing off, it has been encouraging to note that the large majority of boutiques have continued to perform well without noting any drop off in business, with many firms actually having noticed a slight increase in enquires and new business leads.  

Quality client service

The recent changes to top rate income tax bandings and the changes to domiciliary tax rules mean that tax consultants with international experience are in even greater demand by firms advising predominantly HNWIs. Additionally many clients have found they can receive the same high quality compliance and advisory services that they received at larger firms, but at a far more competitive rate. In these cost conscious times, boutiques have the distinct advantage of being able to offer their clients great levels of client service often on a par with the Big 4 with the additional benefit of a close working relationship with a Partner/Director or Senior Manager.

Benefits of a career in boutiques

It's for these reasons that many tax professionals choose the career path that a boutique can offer. As well as the remuneration and the high quality of work, there are the added benefits including the swifter recognition for achievements than perhaps might be received in a larger firm. The chance to work closely with and help shape the development of the business, the opportunity to provide a high quality service and advice to clients and the increasingly popular benefit of an attractive work/life balance are also major factors in choosing this career path.

Opportunity and potential

The future is bright for boutiques, so whether you are a candidate interested in what is available or a firm looking for the best talent, Pure’s specialist team is well placed to assist.
