Inside IR35
I am currently working with a fast-growing, international business that is looking to hire an experienced Tax Accountant on an initial 3-month contract.
This is a great opportunity to join a lean finance team and take ownership across UK and international tax compliance, working closely with external advisors and the wider Finance function.
The Role
You will support the Group Tax Manager across a broad range of tax activities, with a particular focus on coordinating global tax compliance and ensuring deadlines and submissions are managed effectively.
The role would suit someone who is comfortable working in a fast-paced environment, managing multiple priorities and working with both internal stakeholders and external tax advisors.
