Job description
KPMG has one of the leading Indirect Tax practices in the UK. We work as a national practice providing advice and support in all aspects of Indirect Tax (VAT, Customs Duty, Green taxes) to a broad range of business sectors including large multi-nationals, household name retailers, public sector organisations and Financial services (banking, insurance, asset finance, asset management and real estate clients). The Indirect Tax practice is a fast-growing and dynamic business, currently with approximately 13 partners and 190 professional staff located across the UK. We work to support our portfolio of clients with a variety of Indirect tax issues.
The KPMG UK Fintech team is a significant and growing business looking after more than 140 clients. The Fintech team incorporates KPMG's digital assets business where the firm supports a growing number of UK and International crypto businesses. Indirect tax is a significant proportion of this Fintech business, and we are looking for an experienced VAT Senior Manager to work alongside the VAT partner who not only leads the Fintech VAT practice but also leads the wider KPMG Fintech team across the UK.
Due to the significant growth (more than 160% growth in 5 years) of the wider KPMG Fintech Team, and double digit growth of the Fintech VAT practice, we are seeking an ambitious Senior Manager to lead fintech and crypto accounts, grow the indirect tax work, with a view to progression to director, and eventually take on more leadership in the Fintech VAT practice. This will enable the current VAT partner to focus on broader KPMG UK Fintech leadership.
The ideal candidate must demonstrate strong business development skills and be comfortable engaging with clients (both new and existing). Leadership skills are essential to work effectively with internal stakeholders across various service lines, as many fintech and crypto projects involve multiple disciplines such as legal and regulatory work. The role involves managing multiple concurrent projects, so organizational skills are critical.

* Mentoring and developing junior team members technically and commercially.
* Collaborating with the Fintech VAT partner and other senior leaders to realize your potential.
Qualifications and Skills
* ACA or CTA qualification with significant experience in financial services indirect taxes.
Experience and Background
This is an exciting opportunity for someone eager to be part of a successful, growing team. The ideal candidate should:
* Take personal responsibility and accountability for their work.
* Be driven, committed, and ambitious.
* Seek feedback and development opportunities, and pursue new business opportunities.
* Maintain enthusiasm and a positive attitude under pressure.
* Continuously learn and improve from experiences.
