Job description

Senior Indirect Tax Manager | Glasgow | Hybrid
I'm working on a brilliant opportunity for a Senior Indirect Tax Manager to join a genuinely ambitious and growing firm in Glasgow.
This is a business that's investing properly in its tax function, and they're looking for someone who wants more than a job for life doing the same returns on repeat. If you're an experienced VAT/Indirect Tax professional looking for a senior role where your voice is heard, your career is actively planned out for you, and you can genuinely shape how the team develops, I'd really encourage you to get in touch.

What you'll be doing

You'll take ownership of a varied and complex portfolio of clients, leading on VAT and wider indirect tax compliance and advisory work across a range of sectors. You'll be the senior point of contact for your clients, building relationships that go well beyond a transactional tax return, and leading on more technically challenging advisory work as it arises.
There's also scope to get involved in international VAT, customs duty and cross-border matters, depending on your background and interests.
You'll play a genuine leadership role within the team - reviewing and developing the work of Managers and more junior staff, providing technical guidance and helping shape how the wider practice grows. There's real appetite to involve you in business development and the wider strategy of the firm as you settle in, rather than keeping you purely delivery-focused.

What they're looking for

• CTA, ACA, ACCA or equivalent qualification (or qualified by experience with strong technical grounding)
• Significant VAT/Indirect Tax experience at Manager level or above, ideally gained within practice
• A track record of managing your own portfolio and senior client relationships directly
• Experience leading, reviewing and developing more junior team members
• A genuine interest in business development and contributing to the wider growth of the practice

Why this one's worth a conversation

• Salary up to £75,000, depending on experience
• Hybrid working, based from their Glasgow office
• A clear, well-supported route to Director and beyond - this firm genuinely promotes from within and invests in developing people rather than just replacing them
• A collaborative, down-to-earth culture where people stick around
• Real investment in technology and processes, so you're not buried in admin
• A growing tax function with plenty of opportunity to make your mark
