Your New Company
A leading international organisation is seeking an experienced Interim Senior Tax Manager to join its established tax function during a period of transition. Operating across multiple jurisdictions, the business has a complex global structure and a strong focus on continuous improvement, transformation and operational excellence.
This is an excellent opportunity for an accomplished tax specialist to join a high-performing team on an interim basis, providing critical support while a permanent hire is secured. A thorough handover will be provided, ensuring a smooth transition into the role.
Your New Role
Reporting directly to the Head of Tax, you will act as a senior technical specialist, taking ownership of key tax compliance, reporting and return processes across the group. This is a genuinely hands-on position, requiring an individual who enjoys being involved in the detail and delivering work directly, rather than managing teams and delegating responsibilities.
Key responsibilities will include:
- Managing UK and group corporate tax compliance activities.
- Preparing and reviewing tax computations, returns and associated reporting requirements.
- Supporting tax reporting and period-end processes.
- Working with key tax systems including: Alphatax, OneSource, QIPS, CFC reporting, GPA, Group Relief.
- Ensuring tax obligations are met accurately and within required deadlines.
- Acting as the technical tax expert for complex tax matters.
- Liaising with finance, accounting and business stakeholders across the organisation.
- Working collaboratively with offshore tax teams based overseas.
- Supporting tax transformation and change initiatives, including offshore operating model programmes.
- Preparing presentations and communicating effectively with senior stakeholders, including CFO-level audiences.
- Providing knowledge transfer and support throughout the interim assignment.
