Job description

Become the new half of our Corporate Tax duo!

We’ll let you in on a secret, we think we know what you’re looking for...you want it all, and why wouldn’t you. A big ask, but one we feel confident we can deliver on.

You’ll take ownership of your work here at Goodman Jones LLP, whilst developing your technical expertise, and work directly with clients—all while being part of a supportive team in our brand-new, loft-style Fitzrovia office.

And the reason we’re hiring? We’re growing fast and need an ambitious Corporate Tax Manager to join Graeme as we continue building on our success with larger, more complex corporate clients whilst remaining loyal to the family businesses we have built our 90-year history serving.

• Advisory & Complex Compliance: Advising clients on group restructures, international tax matters, transaction tax, and more, while overseeing key compliance deliverables.
• Audit Team Collaboration & Complex Tax Enquiries: Working closely with the audit team to provide corporate tax insights during engagements, attend planning meetings, and deliver proactive tax guidance.
• Corporate Structuring & Transactions: Advising clients on corporate restructures, group reorganisations, acquisitions, disposals, MBOs, and EOTs, with a focus on tax efficiency.
• International Tax Expertise: Guiding clients through complex international tax issues, including CFC rules, double tax relief, and permanent establishment considerations.
• Tax Risk Management & HMRC Engagement: Handling tax risk assessments, CIR compliance, HMRC enquiries, and voluntary disclosures.
• Capital Allowances & Incentives: Advising on capital expenditure planning, SSE applications, and optimising claims for capital allowances.
• Client interaction: Acting as the go-to for clients, helping them navigate tax complexities with confidence.
• Process Improvement & Training: Driving efficiencies in tax advisory processes and delivering training sessions to upskill colleagues.
• Staying sharp: Staying ahead of tax changes.

About You

• Qualified: CTA qualified with experience in corporate tax advisory.
• Experienced: Strong technical skills in corporate tax advisory, particularly around group structures, transactions, and international tax.
• A Natural Leader: Proven experience in reviewing work and mentoring junior team members.
• Client-focused: Strong ability to build and maintain client relationships.
• Commercially Savvy: You understand how tax decisions impact broader business strategy.
• Tech Pro: Comfortable working with tax and accounting software like CCH and Excel.
• Ambitious: Many of our Partners started their journey here as Supervisors, Seniors, or Managers, and we actively promote from within.

We are committed to fostering a diverse and inclusive workplace where everyone feels valued and respected. We believe that diverse teams bring fresh perspectives, innovative ideas, and drive excellence. We welcome applications from all backgrounds, experiences, and identities, including those from underrepresented groups.

If you share our values and want to be part of a collaborative, inclusive, and forward-thinking firm, we encourage you to apply.
