In line with their commitment to invest in new and emerging talent and expand their offering to clients, Claritas Tax has announced the recruitment of four new graduate Tax Associates to their award-winning tax consultancy firm.
The recruits are:
- Florence Ho
- Joss Chippendale
- Jairaj Kooner
- Zohaib Munawar
All four will be based in Birmingham but will work closely with Claritas Tax’s teams in Bristol, Glasgow, Manchester and Nottingham. Under Claritas’ ‘rotational seat programme’, their roles will be working initially in Claritas’ share schemes and valuations, innovations, corporate and M&A departments whilst being supported to study for the prestigious ICAEW and Chartered Institute of Taxation qualifications.
The new recruits follow an influx of new joiners for the firm at all levels, as part of the firm’s continual growth strategy. They join at a very exciting and impressive time for Claritas who have been awarded “Best Employer in Tax” at this year’s Tolley’s Taxation Awards and were winners of “Tax Advisory Team of the Year” in both Midlands and Northwest Rainmakers, in addition to being shortlisted for several categories in this year’s Midlands and North West Insider Dealmakers. Claritas will be hoping to win “Specialist Transaction Team of the Year” for the third time in a row in the Midlands Awards and to score a first win in the same category in the North West.
Iain Wright, Founding Partner and Head of the Birmingham Office at Claritas comments: “Young talent is essential to our future business success and to building the skills we will need to remain competitive. This is a very exciting time for Claritas. Our team keeps going from strength to strength. We’re continuing to grow our team when many of our competitors are imposing recruitment freezes and are especially proud that we’re welcoming strong, ambitious graduates to our offices.”
Matt Hodgson, Partner and Head of the Manchester Office at Claritas comments: “I am delighted to welcome all four new recruits to our fast-growing tax practice. Each individual brings with them a unique set of talent and skills which will be beneficial not only to our clients but to our wider team, ensuring that we can provide a consistent quality service across all of our service lines. I look forward to working with them all and seeing them grow and develop.”
