Résumé du poste

The role offers broad exposure to indirect and employment taxes, transfer pricing, VAT and international compliance, with a major finance systems project underway and an emphasis on data quality and process improvements.

• You'll have operated within an international or multi-entity environment and be comfortable working directly with senior stakeholders.

• You'll also bring a process improvement mindset.
• Experience influencing ERP or finance systems changes from a tax perspective would be valuable, alongside strong Excel, analytical and communication skills.

Responsabilités

• Take responsibility for UK corporate tax activity and associated reporting.
• Coordinate tax requirements across international entities, working with local specialists where appropriate.
• Give practical tax guidance to colleagues when new transactions or commercial activity arise.
• Improve visibility of tax positions, liabilities and future cash requirements.
• Maintain appropriate governance, documentation and controls across the tax function.
• Oversee indirect, employment and cross-border tax matters.
• Manage transfer pricing and tax considerations arising from intercompany activity.
• Ensure tax balances and provisions are accurately reflected within financial reporting.
• Work directly with auditors, advisers and relevant authorities.
• Represent tax during the implementation of a new finance system.
