“Shape the future of the energy industry without sacrificing your own.”
You’ve built your career in tax by tackling complexity. Energy brings plenty of that with multi-entity partnerships, shifting regulations, and clients evolving with renewables, oil and gas, and beyond.
This is your chance to do it at a firm that gives you both the technical challenge and the balance most firms only talk about.
Here, Managers take ownership of their work, lead client relationships, and are trusted to run their own teams while being supported by leadership who genuinely want to see you grow.
Why make the move
You’ll work with a broad mix of energy clients including renewables, oil and gas, and everything in between, keeping your work technically rich and varied.?Career development is a genuine priority here with clear pathways, consistent mentorship, and no “up or out” culture.?They’ve built flexibility into the structure, not just the schedule. Busy season is planned, managed, and contained.?Leadership is approachable, grounded, and trusts their managers to deliver, not to clock hours.
Where this could lead
This isn’t a static Manager seat. Over the next two to three years, you could progress toward Senior Manager or Director, or carve out a niche as a technical leader in the energy tax space. You’ll build credibility in a high-growth industry with a team that’s invested in your long-term success.
Firm culture in three words
Flexible. Supportive. Ambitious.?The proof? They close down extra days around holidays not because they have to but because they actually want people to rest.
Who thrives here
Someone who enjoys technical depth and variety in their client base.?Someone who values independence but appreciates collaboration and trust.?If you want rigid hierarchy or a clock-in, clock-out routine, this isn’t it.
Not ready with a resume? Or want a bit more information before applying? That’s fine.?Apply the old-fashioned way, or simply reach out to me on LinkedIn or through the Distinct Recruitment website. I’ll happily talk you through the role, the firm, and where it could take you before you make any commitments.
I’m Abigail Stephen, Recruiter at Distinct. I don’t just look at job specs; I look at people, and where they’ll thrive. It’s not about filling gaps. It’s about finding a fit that lasts.
Outside of work, balance for me is Pilates to reset, travel to explore, and skiing to recharge. Because the truth is, you don’t slog through hours for the love of a spreadsheet. You do it for the freedom it buys you. Same principle here.
