Indirect Tax Manager Opportunity

A rapidly growing international business is looking to appoint an Indirect Tax Manager to join its London-based tax team.

This is an excellent opportunity for an indirect tax professional who enjoys being hands-on, taking ownership of compliance processes, and working in a high-performance, fast-paced environment. The role offers extensive exposure to international VAT, GST, and other indirect tax matters across a broad range of jurisdictions and would suit someone who enjoys combining technical work with process improvement, technology, and stakeholder engagement.

Working as part of a growing tax function, you will support indirect tax compliance across multiple markets, partnering closely with finance, technology, and operational teams. The business is known for attracting exceptionally bright individuals and has made significant investments in systems, automation, and process improvement, creating an environment where innovation and continuous development are genuinely valued.

Key Responsibilities

  • Manage and oversee indirect tax compliance obligations across multiple jurisdictions.
  • Review VAT, GST, and other indirect tax returns prepared by external providers, ensuring accuracy and timely filing.
  • Perform reconciliations, investigate discrepancies, and strengthen reporting controls.
  • Drive process improvements to increase efficiency and reduce manual intervention in compliance activities.
  • Partner with finance and technology teams to enhance systems and support future developments such as e-invoicing and digital reporting requirements.
  • Provide practical advice to the business on indirect tax, customs, and cross-border transaction matters.
  • Support business growth initiatives, new market entry projects, and wider tax team activities.
  • Monitor legislative and regulatory developments and assess their impact on the group's global indirect tax obligations.

Reasons to use Rodeo

I’m in my final year doing Economics and I don’t know whether to apply for grad schemes now or do a masters first. What do you think?

Honest answer — it depends on where you want to end up. A lot of top grad schemes (Big 4, civil service, banking) don’t need a masters. Let’s look at the ones you’d be competitive for now, and we can decide if a masters actually adds anything.

Also worth knowing: most autumn 2026 applications are open now. Timing matters more than you think.

Start with a chat, not a search bar

Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
