Are you ready to take your VAT expertise global?
Join a fast-growing, forward-thinking firm that specialises in international VAT, tax, and accounting for e-commerce businesses across the UK and worldwide. With a strong reputation for client service and innovation, this firm is expanding rapidly and offers a dynamic environment where your skills will make a real impact.
Based in their modern Southampton office, you'll work with a diverse portfolio of international clients, supporting them with VAT compliance, advisory services, and cross-border e-commerce consultancy.

* Preparing and filing European VAT returns with precision and timeliness.
* Advising clients on VAT liabilities, payments, and compliance obligations.
* Managing EC Sales, Intrastat reporting, and liaising with tax authorities.
* Building trusted relationships with clients and guiding them through complex VAT matters.
What We're Looking For
* Experience in Law, VAT, Accountancy, or Finance.
* Strong communication skills-confident in email, phone, and occasional face-to-face interactions.
* A proactive, organised approach with the ability to manage deadlines.
* Team player who can also work independently.
* Exposure to international e-commerce is a plus, but not essential.
Why Join?
* Competitive salary and benefits package.
* 25 days holiday + Bank Holidays (option to buy 5 more).
* Birthday off after 1 year of service.
* Private healthcare and life insurance after probation.
* Support for professional qualifications and career development.
