Corporate Tax Compliance Lead - Manchester Global Tax Consultancy £100,000 - £140,000 + Benefits + Bonus

I'm currently working with a leading tax consultancy who are looking to bring in a strong Corporate Tax Director to lead their compliance business across the UK from their new Manchester office. A unique opportunity to build and shape a corporate tax compliance function at an early stage with a firm that operates differently to a traditional accountancy firm.

Your new role:

• Lead corporate tax compliance across relevant jurisdictions, ensuring accurate and timely filings
• Oversee tax reporting, including current and deferred tax under applicable accounting standards
• Monitor changes in tax legislation and assess impacts on the business
• Manage relationships with tax authorities, including audits, enquiries, and correspondence
• Own the tax compliance calendar and ensure deadlines are met
• Review and approve tax computations, returns, and related disclosures
• Partner with finance, legal, and business teams to embed tax compliance into operations
• Oversee transfer pricing compliance and related documentation
• Manage external tax advisors and ensure quality and cost effectiveness
• Identify and manage tax compliance risks, escalating issues as appropriate
• Drive improvements in tax processes, controls, and use of systems
• Lead and develop the tax compliance team and support broader tax initiatives

What do you need to be successful:

• Strong UK Tax compliance experience having run and managed a corporate tax compliance team.
• Suitable tax qualification (CTA, ACA, ACCA)
• Ideally you'll be a strong Corporate Tax Director working in practice or someone who is returning from an in-house position wanting something a little different.
• Excellent people leadership skills and experience, having built and developed teams in the past
