Description
We’re working with a fast-growing, PE-backed, FCA-regulated financial services business that’s investing heavily in its finance team. They’re creating a dedicated Tax Manager position — a first for the company.
Until now, tax responsibilities have been shared across finance. This role changes that. You’ll take full ownership of tax across the group, giving you the chance to build processes, drive improvements, and establish yourself as the go-to tax expert. For the right person, this could be the perfect launchpad towards a future Head of Tax role.
What you’ll be doing
- Owning all aspects of tax compliance and reporting across the group.
- Working closely with finance colleagues and external advisors to ensure timely, accurate filings.
- Leading on tax planning and advising the business on new developments.
- Building and refining internal tax processes and controls.
- Providing tax support on corporate projects, including those linked to private equity ownership.
What we’re looking for
- ACA/CTA (or equivalent) with strong corporate tax experience.
- Background in wealth management, financial services, or another FCA-regulated business – OR experience in practice with FS clients.
- Someone who wants to step up into a broader role, taking full ownership of tax.
- Commercially minded, comfortable working with senior stakeholders.
Why this role?
- Ownership & impact – shape how tax is managed across the business.
- Career trajectory – perfect stepping stone towards a Head of Tax role.
- Private equity exposure – work in a fast-paced, growth environment that looks great on your CV.
- Compensation – up to £85,000 base salary + benefits.
- Hybrid working – balance flexibility with visibility in a central London office.
This is a rare chance to take the reins on tax in a business that’s scaling quickly. If you’re ambitious, commercially savvy, and want to position yourself for bigger things, this role could be the career move you’ve been waiting for.
