Are you looking to take your VAT career to the next level in a supportive, forward-thinking environment?

You’ll also bring:

• Strong attention to detail and technical accuracy
• Great communication skills, especially when explaining VAT issues to non-specialists
• Confidence handling client queries and building relationships
• Proficient IT skills, ideally including tax software and Microsoft Office

What’s on Offer:

• 25 days holiday (plus the option to buy more)
• Flexible, hybrid working

• Lifestyle discounts through an employee benefits hub
• Health cash plan scheme
• Support for continued study and development
