We're working with a well-established and growing business looking to bring in a Tax Accountant to strengthen their finance function.

This is a fantastic opportunity for someone who enjoys working across a broad tax remit, partnering with the wider business, and playing a key role in ensuring compliance while adding commercial value.

Reporting into the Head of Tax, you'll be a key point of contact for all tax-related matters across multiple entities.

This is a varied position combining compliance, reporting, and business partnering.

You will:

  • Prepare and review corporate tax computations and returns across multiple entities
  • Support quarterly tax reporting, including forecasts and budgeting inputs
  • Assist with statutory reporting, including IFRS-related tax disclosures
  • Analyse tax data and provide insights to support decision-making
  • Work closely with the wider finance team and non-finance stakeholders
  • Support VAT and indirect tax processes, including property-related VAT where applicable
  • Liaise with HMRC and external advisors
  • Contribute to ongoing improvements in tax processes and controls
  • Support and mentor junior team members
  • Get involved in ad hoc projects across the group
About You

We're looking for someone who is both technically strong and commercially aware.

You'll ideally have:

  • A recognised qualification (ATT, ACA, ACCA, CTA or equivalent)
  • Solid experience in corporate tax and compliance
  • Exposure to VAT and broader tax matters
  • Strong analytical skills and high attention to detail
  • Confidence working with financial systems (e.g. Alphatax or similar - beneficial but not essential)
  • Advanced Excel capability
  • The ability to manage multiple deadlines and priorities
  • A proactive, solutions-focused mindset
  • Strong communication skills with the ability to build relationships across the business

This role offers real breadth, you won't just be "doing returns." You'll be part of a collaborative finance team, gaining exposure across the business and playing a meaningful role in shaping tax processes and supporting growth.
