Group Tax Manager

Dragon PSR ,
Malton, North Yorkshire

Overview

Our client, a highly acquisitive £1 billion revenue, industry leading UK food business with significant investment and growth plans, supplies high quality meat products to retail, foodservice and manufacturing customers across the UK, and to export customers across the globe. Based at their North Yorks head office and reporting to the Group Financial Controller you will pro-actively lead the tax function for all companies within the group structure. With one direct report currently, the team is expected to grow, thus a real opportunity to shape and develop the function whilst adding value to the business and supporting its ambitious growth plans. Key responsibilities will include Corporation Tax, overseas tax, R&D tax, VAT and all the good compliance stuff that you'd expect. Ensuring tax policies are fit for purpose, liaising with advisors, tax matters on acquisitions and building strong working relationships with key stakeholders are all key deliverables. Advisory content will follow. We're looking for a qualified accountant with a number of years' pqe. You may be tax through and through, or perhaps from an audit background and have moved into tax. Industry experience, especially in a sizeable business is ideal, although we would certainly consider the right individual coming straight from professional practice. Big 4 would be ideal; but just not too small. The personal traits are the non-negotiables. A self-starter with strong communication and relationship building skills, and a positive attitude is what we seek. Offering a challenging, stimulating role with excellent prospects this is an outstanding opportunity for an outstanding individual. If of interest, then please forward your cv advising of current package details. Rest assured your application and any discussions will be treated in the strictest confidence. Video conference interviews will be the name of the game. Early start ideal. DragonPSR has been retained on this assignment.
