The Firm:

Operating from a Corporate Centre in the North East of England with further offices in London that could serve as a base, the organisation supports a wide portfolio of overseas operations and continues to invest heavily in its people, systems and long-term sustainability agenda.

As part of this, they are now seeking an International Tax Manager to join their established Group Tax function on a 12-month fixed-term contract, covering maternity leave.

The Role:

This is a broad and commercially focused role with exposure to a wide range of international tax matters across Europe. You will work closely with overseas finance teams, senior stakeholders, and external advisors, providing tax support across compliance, reporting, advisory and project work.

The role will involve a mixture of:

• International tax reporting and forecasting

• Partnering with overseas businesses and divisional teams

Key responsibilities will include:

• Reviewing quarterly and year-end tax reporting positions and presenting these to senior management

• Providing tax input into treasury-related matters

  • Corporate tax

  • IFRS tax reporting

  • International tax compliance and reporting

  • Transfer pricing

  • M&A or transaction support

• Strong communication skills are essential, as the role involves working with senior stakeholders across multiple countries and functions.

Benefits:

A 12 month opportunity that could very well lead to something longer term for the right international tax professional. The role can offer broad international exposure, strategic and project-led work in a senior and well visible role within a well-resourced tax team.

This is a high-quality maternity cover position within a complex and growing organisation. The role will idelaly be based in the North East of England 2-3 days each week with the remainder working from home. Alternatively this can be based out of London with some travel to the regional office.

A competitive salary based upon experience, and a comprehensive benefits package is on offer, alongside flexible and hybrid working arrangements.
