Job Title: Tax Senior Manager (In-House)

Location: London (Hybrid – Ideally 2 days/week in office)

Reports To: London-based Tax Director

The Opportunity

You’re looking for more than a traditional tax compliance role. You want to work in a strategic, globally connected environment where your expertise directly shapes how a multinational organisation meets its tax obligations. This is your chance to step into an internal role with global scope — no clients, just impact.

As Senior Manager, you’ll take ownership of international tax filings across a wide range of jurisdictions. You’ll focus on critical areas like Pillar 2 and Country-by-Country reporting, and you’ll work alongside a high-performing team that values quality, accountability, and smart collaboration.

This role offers you the best of both worlds: technical depth and strategic influence, without the seasonal intensity of traditional practice work.

What You’ll Do

Lead Global Compliance:

Oversee tax filings in 20–50 jurisdictions, ensuring accuracy, timeliness, and consistency across all submissions.

Manage Pillar 2 and CbC Reporting:

Stay ahead of evolving global standards, driving high-quality reporting and ensuring compliance with new regulations.

Coordinate External Advisors:

Scope work, manage deliverables, and review outputs from local tax advisors, ensuring alignment with internal objectives.

Partner with Finance:

Work closely with offshore finance teams to gather data, review calculations, and maintain an efficient compliance process.

Support Tax Accounting:

Provide tax journals and disclosures under IFRS, supporting year-end processes and ensuring accurate financial reporting.

Engage with Authorities:

Manage correspondence with tax authorities across jurisdictions, resolving issues with professionalism and clarity.

What You’ll Bring

• You have solid UK and international corporate tax knowledge, with hands-on experience managing global compliance.
• You’re confident reviewing overseas tax returns and working with local advisors to ensure accuracy and completeness.
• You know how to interpret financial statements and extract key data for compliance and reporting purposes.
• You’ve contributed to tax accounting processes, including journal preparation and IFRS disclosures.
• You prefer a steady, consistent workflow throughout the year — not a high-pressure seasonal peak.
• You communicate clearly and effectively with stakeholders at all levels, both tax and non-tax.
• You have an interest in using technology to improve tax processes and increase efficiency.
• You hold a CTA (or equivalent) qualification and bring experience from practice, industry, or both.

Why This Role Stands Out

• You’ll step into a truly internal, strategic tax role — not a client-facing position.
• You’ll work as part of a close-knit team where your expertise and independence are valued.
• You’ll benefit from flexible working arrangements and a strong, supportive workplace culture.
• You’ll gain exposure to a wide variety of tax regimes and international structures — with the space to do your best work.
