Your New Company
You'll be joining a large, forward-looking organisation with a strong UK presence and a reputation for investing in its people. Known for its collaborative culture and commitment to continuous improvement, this is an environment where you'll work alongside skilled professionals across a range of business functions. You'll be part of a well-established tax team that plays a central role in supporting the organisation's financial integrity and long-term strategy. The business offers a supportive and inclusive culture, with excellent opportunities for professional development and exposure to senior stakeholders.
Your new role
As a Tax Compliance Accountant, you will support the Senior Tax Manager with the full spectrum of corporate tax compliance activities for the UK legal entities. Your responsibilities will include:
- Collecting and analysing financial data from internal systems
- Preparing corporate tax returns for UK operations and overseas branches
- Contributing to statutory reporting
You'll work closely with finance, commercial teams, and external advisors, ensuring accurate and timely tax submissions, robust governance, and strong technical standards.
You'll also support areas such as R&D claims, tax provisioning, transfer pricing documentation, forecasting, audit preparation, and compliance with wider reporting requirements. This is a varied and hands-on role that will give you visibility across multiple business divisions and the opportunity to contribute to continuous improvement within the tax function.
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.
