If you have a passionate for indirect tax, both in the UK and internationally, this is an opportunity to join a global recruitment and consulting business and add real value to theirGlobal Operations team.

Our client operates across 30 countries globally and opens and average of 3 new offices every year. With 30% growth year-on-year for the last decade, they have a clear vision of where they are going and are now looking for an Indirect Tax Manager, based out of their new city centre offices in Manchester. With turnover touching the £450 million mark, this is a great opportunity to join the team and take your career to the next level.

Reporting directly to the Head of Transactional Finance, you will be responsible for overseeing the end-to-end indirect tax function of the group. This will involve both UK and international tax law, so a strong working knowledge of both is required. Ideally, you will have 5+ years of experience working in a similar position. Big4 training is ideal, but if you have an HMRC background and have been in industry for a few years, please do get in touch.

You will be responsible for managing the Group’s indirect tax reporting, including directly managing the accurate and timely submission of VAT returns for UK entities, and overseeing VAT, SST and WHT submissions for non-UK entities through third-party providers and accountants. You’ll identify indirect tax optimisation opportunities, evaluate key risk areas and provide indirect tax support and advice to key stakeholders across the group.

There is scope to be trained into the role here, so if you’re in a more junior position looking to make a step up, please do get in touch. Perhaps a Senior Analyst with no management experience. Ideally, you will hold a tax qualification but if you’re nearing the end of your studies, there could be an opportunity here.

From a salary perspective you will be looking at £60,000 - £70,000 DOE, with a 10% performance related bonus, generous holiday allowance, loads of social activities, company pension and an array of other benefits.

This is a hybrid role, with 3 days office based and 2 from home. In the early days, there will be more office time whilst you get up to speed.

I appreciate this is only a snapshot of the role, and there is a lot more to discuss, so if you are interested and want to know more, call me, send me a message (Richard Lambert on LinkedIn), DM, or whatever is easiest.
