I'm looking for someone to give us advice on how much to invest, put into pension etc.
Also, we've recently both hit milestones in salary that we must both complete self assessment tax returns each year... Want to know more about what's required etc.

You can pay someone to do it like an accountant or you can do it yourself.
Either way, you'll be responsible for it and accountable for what you are telling them.
Unless you have exotic investments, i.e. property, shit load of bitcoins etc then it's unlikely an accountant would add much to the mechanics of it. An IFA would try to wrap your investments in tax free wrappers too so you might find there's little income thats taxable beyond your salary.
