A well-established international organisation within the technology & manufacturing space is looking to appoint a commercially minded Tax Manager to take ownership of UK and selected international tax matters. This is a visible role with genuine scope to influence, working closely with senior finance stakeholders and external advisers rather than disappearing into spreadsheet purgatory. The position is based in Milton Keynes, offering a stable long-term platform within a globally connected business that continues to invest in its European operations and infrastructure. If you enjoy variety, technical challenge and having a proper seat at the table, this one is worth a look.

This Tax Manager position sits at the heart of the finance function, covering compliance, reporting and advisory work across multiple jurisdictions. You'll be trusted to run things day to day, while also getting involved in projects that stretch beyond routine filing deadlines. The environment suits someone who likes autonomy but still values collaboration.

What you'll be doing

• Managing and reviewing UK corporation tax computations and returns, alongside selected international filings
• Leading year-end tax reporting under UK GAAP and IFRS
• Providing tax input on group projects including restructures, acquisitions and financing activity
• Overseeing indirect taxes such as VAT, PAYE, P11Ds, PSAs, R&D claims and Patent Box
• Acting as the main point of contact for HMRC enquiries and audits
• Keeping on top of legislative change and flagging risks and planning opportunities
• Supporting transfer pricing documentation and cross-border compliance
• Coordinating with external advisers, auditors and overseas finance teams

What we're looking for

• Professionally qualified ACA, ACCA or CTA with typically 5+ years post-qualified experience in corporate tax, either in-house or from practice
• Strong grounding in UK corporate tax with exposure to international and cross-border matters
• Comfortable dealing with HMRC and interpreting complex legislation
• Experience of tax accounting under UK GAAP and IFRS
• A pragmatic communicator who can translate tax into something the business actually understands

What's on offer

• Indicative salary in the region of £85,000 to £92,000 plus bonus
• Full-time permanent role based in Milton Keynes
• Exposure to international tax and commercially interesting projects
• A supportive finance team with sensible access to external advisers
• Long-term career stability within the telecommunications sector

This Tax Manager role would suit someone who enjoys breadth, responsibility and being trusted to get on with the job without constant supervision. The business operates within the telecommunications industry and offers a balanced, grown-up working culture.
