Indirect Tax Manager

An excellent in-house career opportunity to join our global services client as Indirect Tax Manager.  As part of a team of five based in Glasgow, you will play an integral role in providing indirect tax advisory and compliance services to the business and affiliated companies across the EMEA and wider region. The role is orientated towards the continual day-to-day provision of technical indirect tax guidance and advice as well as supporting planning and in-depth project involvement. You will also support the end-to-end tax compliance obligations around Value Added Tax (VAT), parafiscal taxes, indirect tax accounting and associated e-filing where required is anticipated.

This role is all about….

• Responding to indirect tax queries as and when they arise – both from the business and from the Finance Team.
• Assisting senior tax team members relating to the provision of ad hoc planning and projects and indirect tax advice as necessary.
• Indirect tax return reviews.
• Regular and formalised liaison with business lines/ conduct and legal teams as well as external bodies to ensure current knowledge is maintained and implemented.

About you….

Coming from a background in industry, services or professional practice you will have a strong technical background working in VAT with good grasp of VAT law as well as formal VAT guidance. A professional tax or accounting qualification (e.g. ACCA, ICAS and/ or CTA) is advantageous but not essential. Strong Excel skills are imperative, as an interest in the structure and functioning of systems/automation with a view towards current & future tax requirements particularly around increased data demands.  You will be a confident communicator with a ‘can do’ attitude with the ability to work independently as well as part of a team.
