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, and 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.
