Additional services provided by our Audit team are Audit fraud prevention and whistleblowing services.

Why I love my job?
I love my job because it has been a constant platform to grow. I have always been supported and encouraged to develop through training, study and the unique opportunities that can arise through being part of the AAB group.
Ian Blackhouse, Audit Advisor
We work with clients across all sectors advising and completing relevant reporting on all Employment Tax related matters. This can be ad hoc queries to full projects such as PAYE reviews. We focus on areas such as expenses and benefits, employment status and off payroll workers, termination payments, employment related securities. We ensure that our clients are compliant with ever changing legislation and that our clients understand any implications for both the Company and their employees.
The employment tax world is highly technical, no matter where you are within the team you are checking legislation and HMRC guidance every day! The real satisfaction comes from identifying efficiencies for our clients where we can see a real impact on our clients cash flows, time savings and their employee engagement. Our team has a variety of backgrounds, which is beneficial given the technical nature of our job, this allows for interesting discussions on upcoming changes and current processes, we also learn something new from one another regularly.
Claire Bruce, Global Employment Tax Assistant Manager
The indirect tax team at AAB serves our clients in the following ways:
Why I love my job
AAB has a strong breadth of clients, so no two days feel the same. I love solving problems for our clients, getting to know them, their business, priorities, and challenges in terms of VAT. The connections and relationships we build mean that people come back to work with us because they trust us.
Christopher Scott, Indirect Tax Senior Manager
Our payroll team provide payroll services for a variety of clients. This includes calculating how much employees need to be paid, calculating how much tax and National Insurance needs to be deducted from their pay and reporting the details to HMRC. Payroll is a fast-paced environment, with no two days the same which makes working in payroll a motivating and stimulating career choice.
AAB has such a variety of services which really drew me in as I realised that no matter where I may start within the company, there will always be the chance for me to engage with something new. Being in a workplace like AAB has been a great place to begin my career as I felt I have always been supported, with the team really making sure I was understanding everything that was being introduced to me, regardless of how busy they may have been with their own work.
Robyn Anderson, UK Payroll Assistant
In VFF, we help our clients by providing an outsourced solution to meet their needs. Our team acts as our clients’ finance function, we carry out everyday accounts payable and receivable tasks such as invoice processing and payment runs as well as also preparing monthly management & year end statutory accounts for our clients. We have a wide variety of skills within our team so are also able to offer ad-hoc work which is mostly covered by our SFS (strategic financial solutions) team who focus on technical accounting.
I have been able to learn so much from the other members in the team which has furthered my development both in my job and with exams. The team are also great for helping me to achieve my goals and if I want to get involved in different work then they try their best to make this happen. There are also plenty of social events happening through the year which is great to get to know people across the business more.
Shaun Wilson, Virtual Finance Assistant
AAB Wealth provide a full range of financial planning to our clients in order to help them achieve their goals. We get to know our clients personally and will establish their needs and objectives at the start of the process, and tailor our advice in order to ensure they achieve these; be it retiring early, gifting money to their children, selling a business or buying a new home. Our service covers retirement planning, inheritance and succession planning and tax planning.
I really love meeting all our clients and getting to know them & their families personally, and even better is seeing the positive impact our advice can make on their lives. Straight away you feel like a trusted and respected member of the team, and I have a great variety of work which makes every day interesting. I also really enjoy the social side as there are plenty young people, and the firm encourages you to get to know members from other teams that you may not interact with in your normal day to day work.
