An opportunity has arisen within the Glasgow-based tax function of a leading international professional services firm. This is a newly created role, designed to strengthen and future-proof the firm’s international tax capability as the business continues to scale globally.
This is a role for someone who genuinely enjoys technical international tax compliance, but also wants exposure to complex, value-add project work.
The Role
You’ll take ownership of a portfolio of EMEA corporate tax compliance, working closely with internal finance stakeholders and overseas advisers to ensure accurate, timely filings across multiple jurisdictions.
The role is intentionally split:
-
~70% international tax compliance (EMEA-focused)
-
~30% project work, including post-merger integration, process improvement, and cross-border tax initiatives
You’ll sit within an established, collaborative tax team in Glasgow, with visibility across the wider international finance function.
Key Responsibilities
-
Lead EMEA corporate tax compliance, including review and coordination of returns and computations
-
Act as the central point of contact for overseas advisers and local finance teams
-
Manage deadlines, tax risk, and compliance workflows across multiple jurisdictions
-
Support international projects such as post-merger integration and operational improvements
-
Contribute to automation and process efficiencies within the tax function
-
Build trusted relationships across finance, legal, and the wider business
About You
This role will suit someone who is technically solid, commercially aware, and comfortable operating in a cross-border environment.
You’ll likely bring:
-
Strong experience in EMEA corporate tax compliance (in-house or practice background)
-
Confidence working with complex, multi-country data sets
-
A pragmatic, solutions-focused mindset (you know when “perfect” is the enemy of “done”)
-
A recognised tax or accounting qualification (CTA, CA, ACA, ACCA or equivalent)
-
The ability to communicate clearly with non-tax stakeholders
Why This Role?
-
Newly created position – real scope to shape how the role develops
-
Genuine hybrid working (this isn’t lip service)
-
Exposure to international projects without moving into a full advisory role
-
A stable, well-resourced environment with long-term career progression
-
Competitive salary and an excellent benefits package
If you’re an international tax professional who enjoys compliance but wants broader exposure — without sacrificing work-life balance — this is one worth exploring. To discuss further, including salary and benefits, contact Stuart Ringland at stuart@lusona.co.uk or call 07956263466
