Tax Manager
The Role
We're looking for a Tax Manager to join our International Tax team based in Leatherhead, Surrey. This is an excellent opportunity to play a key role in corporate tax compliance, reporting, governance, and advisory activities across a dynamic international business.
Working closely with finance, accounting, and operational stakeholders, as well as external advisors, you'll help ensure tax obligations are met, tax risks are effectively managed, and the business receives practical, commercial tax support.
This role comes at a particularly exciting time as Trinzic prepares to become an independent public company through the planned separation of KBR's Mission Technology Solutions business. You'll have the opportunity to contribute to a growing global organisation while helping shape tax processes and support the business through a significant period of transformation.
What You'll Be Doing
- Lead corporate tax compliance activities, including the preparation and review of tax computations, returns, and supporting analysis.
- Coordinate with external tax advisors to ensure timely and accurate tax filings across multiple jurisdictions.
- Support corporate tax payment processes, including forecasting quarterly instalment payments and monitoring tax liabilities.
- Analyse and review financial information required for tax compliance, reporting, and planning activities.
- Support monthly, quarterly, and annual tax accounting processes, including current and deferred tax calculations under UK GAAP and US GAAP.
- Prepare and review tax disclosures for statutory financial statements and support internal and external audits.
- Maintain tax governance documentation, internal controls, and Senior Accounting Officer (SAO) compliance processes.
- Manage tax authority enquiries, audits, and other tax-related matters.
- Provide practical tax advice on business transactions and day-to-day operational activities.
- Conduct technical tax research and support strategic business initiatives.
- Support transfer pricing compliance activities and related documentation.
- Identify opportunities to improve tax processes, reporting, automation, and data quality.
