Your new company

Established over 50 years ago, I am working with one of the UK's largest privately-owned property investment companies.

Your new role

The company owns a substantial portfolio of properties, including freehold residential properties across London, as well as commercial properties. Given the size of the group, there is now a need to recruit a Tax Manager to work in the small tax team.

You will report to the Tax Director and work alongside an established Tax Manager and an Assistant Manager. The current Tax Manager manages most compliance needs, and the Assistant Manager supports them and benefits from additional guidance and review.

This role supports the Tax Director with strategic and governance matters within the UK Group, including preparing for Risk Reviews, overseeing group tax attributes and compliance, and ensuring adherence to Corporate Criminal Offence (CCO) tax legislation.

You will manage and support the Assistant Manager, partner with the wider finance team to ensure proper processes and controls, and collaborate with the Tax Director on strategic/advisory matters related to structuring, investments, and transactions. There is also an opportunity to be involved in broader taxes such as Personal, Inheritance, and International taxes.
