About Hoxton Tax

We work closely with Hoxton Wealth clients whilst also supporting independent clients, offering tailored solutions across accounting, taxation, wealth structuring and long-term planning.
In April 2026, Hoxton Tax relaunched, marking an exciting new chapter. This relaunch combines our established technical expertise with a future-focused approach, creating a team designed to meet the evolving needs of business owners and private clients in an increasingly complex landscape.
Technology is a key pillar of Hoxton Tax's future-focused approach. We are investing in modern systems, data-driven processes and the responsible use of AI to enhance efficiency, accuracy and insight across our work. By streamlining compliance and administrative processes, we create more time for what matters most: understanding our clients, building strong relationships and delivering practical, commercially focused advice.
We are building a firm that is practical, client-led and forward-thinking, focused on delivering clear, commercially aware advice that clients can trust, whilst fostering strong relationships with both clients and their wider adviser networks.
Joining Hoxton Tax now means being part of something at the very start of an ambitious journey. We believe that strong relationships, technical excellence and sound judgement are the foundations of effective client service. As we continue to grow, we are creating a firm that values collaboration, quality and integrity—both in how we support clients and how we develop our people.
