Indirect Tax - Microsoft Dynamics

Our high-profile Indirect Tax Transformation team, based primarily within our London office in the UK, focuses on assisting clients with transformation programmes and the operational management of VAT. This includes helping clients react to and adjust their VAT management approach because of the global trend towards tax authority digitisation. They advise clients on a wide range of operational, systems and technology projects, including ERP system VAT optimisation, process, controls, and supply chain, whilst also working with innovative technologies including machine learning and robotics. The indirect tax transformation team works with a variety of organisations across all sectors. The business has been growing year on year and to seize the opportunities available in the market, the team requires new talent.

A key focus of this Indirect Tax Transformation team is Microsoft Dynamics 365 (D365) and we support clients with getting the most out of their D365 system from a tax perspective. We are a cross taxes multidisciplinary team, applying our range of experiences and skills, knowledge of best practice and practical hands-on experience throughout the ERP project lifecycle. This includes helping clients navigate an ERP implementation ensuring risks are managed and opportunities for tax are well understood and executed, optimise existing ERP set-up to better manage risk, drive efficiencies and reduce cash leakage, as well as implement future-proof solutions to manage taxes in a constantly changing tax and digital landscape.
