Indirect Tax - Microsoft Dynamics

Our high-profile Indirect Tax Transformation team, based primarily within our London office in the UK, focuses on assisting clients with transformation programmes and the operational management of VAT. This includes helping clients react to and adjust their VAT management approach because of the global trend towards tax authority digitisation. They advise clients on a wide range of operational, systems and technology projects, including ERP system VAT optimisation, process, controls, and supply chain, whilst also working with innovative technologies including machine learning and robotics.

The indirect tax transformation team works with a variety of organisations across all sectors. The business has been growing year on year and to seize the opportunities available in the market, the team requires new talent.

A key focus of this Indirect Tax Transformation team is Microsoft Dynamics 365 (D365) and we support clients with getting the most out of their D365 system from a tax perspective. We are a cross taxes multidisciplinary team, applying our range of experiences and skills, knowledge of best practice and practical hands-on experience throughout the ERP project lifecycle. This includes helping clients navigate an ERP implementation ensuring risks are managed and opportunities for tax are well understood and executed, optimise existing ERP set-up to better manage risk, drive efficiencies and reduce cash leakage, as well as implement future-proof solutions to manage taxes in a constantly changing tax and digital landscape.

The opportunity

This is an exciting opportunity for a motivated and ambitious individual to join EY's specialist Indirect Tax Transformation team, with a focus around tax D365 advisory work. This role will provide an opportunity to be involved in a fast growth part of the UKI Tax practice. The successful candidate will have an opportunity to work with significant multinational clients and to engage with our global EY network, providing a great opportunity to build and expand your corporate network.

Modern tax regulations are highly complex and dynamic, and our clients need our support with understanding what these mean for them in terms of technology, data and technology solutions, as well as data, controls, process and governance strategy. As an Indirect tax ERP professional at EY, you'll use experience of Indirect tax global rules and requirements, and knowledge of D365 functionality, additional SAP tax applications and third-party solutions to help clients identify the right technology tools and manage their systems to deliver tax requirements effectively. The primary role would be to engage with clients and help to maximise the value that their D365 systems can deliver for tax, whether these systems are being implemented for the first time or clients are looking to extract more value from the existing ERP system.

In turn, we'll help you achieve your potential by giving you business advisory experience and professional development. Our senior tax professionals will support you throughout your career, helping you to grow and become a leader in the tax profession.
