The CIOT is the leading professional body for tax professionals in the UK, dealing with all aspects of taxation. To achieve our charitable objects, we need to draw on the wide range of experience and skills of our members and we are also keen to involve students in our Branch Network. It’s never too early or late in your career to think about volunteering. There are a range of opportunities to suit different skills and experience. Whatever your area of interest or expertise we may have something for you. 

We currently have over 700 volunteers.  

Volunteering with the CIOT not only helps us, but it can also provide a great way for you to: 

• Enhance and develop new skills 
• Gain valuable experience for your CV 
• Contribute to the wider profession 
• Build your personal and professional networks 
• Potential to work with the influencers within the field of tax 
• Receive an invite to our annual thank you reception for volunteers 

What do volunteers do? 

Volunteers contribute to CIOT across the full range of our activities for example, tax technical, membership & branches, standards, finance and education. Volunteers sign up to a volunteer agreement and must be committed to attend meetings regularly.
