The Opportunity:
We’re working with a Private Equity-backed global group generating approximately £130m EBITDA, operating internationally.

* Manage relationships with HMRC and overseas tax authorities, including audits
* Provide internal tax advisory support for strategic projects, M&A, and daily operations
* Integrate newly acquired entities into group tax processes and reporting
* Optimize external advisors versus in-house capabilities
* Oversee tax forecasting, IFRS reporting, and payments

The Requirements:
* Proven experience in a senior tax leadership role, preferably within a global PE-backed group
* Strong technical knowledge of international direct and indirect tax, compliance, and reporting
* Experience managing tax matters in complex, multi-entity, cross-border environments
