Every day, our teams help people in businesses and communities to do what is right and achieve their goals.
Employment Tax is an important building block for any business. We support businesses and employees with a practical and pragmatic perspective—making their approach to expenses more efficient, training them on how to embed new rules such as IR35, proposing pragmatic solutions when compliance falls short, answering queries about how to best reward and tax benefits and payments provided to employees, and introducing new or updated salary sacrifice employee benefit schemes.
We are looking for an experienced Manager to join our successful and expanding national Employment Tax team, offering much opportunity for growth. There is an option to work full-time or flexibly, including hybrid working arrangements.
Located in Scotland, but other locations are considered.
A look into the role
As an experienced Manager within our Employment Tax team, you will:
1. Advise our diverse client base on a range of employment tax issues, including the operation of PAYE and NIC on payments, expenses, and benefits provided to employees, as well as establishing employment status (including IR35).
2. Help employers gain cost savings through the implementation of more effective pay and benefits reward structures.
3. Manage Employment Tax compliance and mitigate internal and external risks, including year-end reporting and risks such as NMW and holiday pay.
4. Assist with Employment Tax reviews, whether within due diligence, health checks, SAO, or on a standalone basis.
5. Play an integral role in the Employment Tax and wider Employer Solutions group, working on interesting and rewarding projects with a variety of clients.
6. Build the reputation of the Employment Tax team and Grant Thornton as a whole through quality work.
