Global Sustainable Mobility & Technology Group – VAT Manager
Join a fast-growing, technology-led group and take a hands-on advisory role in its in-house Indirect Tax function, supporting UK and EU VAT across the business. This is a great opportunity to help shape VAT strategy at a time when tax requirements are becoming more complex with developments such as VIDA and real-time reporting.
You'll work at the heart of the business, partnering with Finance, Operations and Commercial teams to give practical, timely VAT advice on new business offerings, cross-border transactions and complex VAT matters. This is a role with real scope to strengthen controls, improve processes and systems, and build a more robust VAT framework across the Group.

Every day your agent scans the market matching roles against what actually matters to you, not just keywords on a CV.
