Who we are

At Grant Thornton we’re building something bold. We’re doing things differently - looking to the future, driving ambitious growth and pioneering positive change in our industry.

Joining us in Tax

The Corporate tax team at Grant Thornton provides expert advice on a wide range of tax matters, supporting clients with compliance, risk management, and strategic planning. Their services include corporate tax compliance, transaction support, structuring, and advice on tax-efficient growth and international expansion. The team works closely with businesses of all sizes to help them navigate complex tax legislation and optimize their tax position, ensuring they remain compliant while maximizing value.

If you’re an experienced interim Corporate Tax Manager who’s tired of choosing between freedom and meaningful work, there’s another route. Within our Tax team, you’ll be given the opportunity to take on short- to medium-term projects that sharpen your expertise, stretch your thinking, and give you a different angle on familiar challenges - all without locking you into a single path.

As a Corporate Tax Manager, you will play a pivotal role in providing expert guidance and leadership in all aspects of corporate tax compliance and advisory services. You will work closely with a range of clients, across a variety of industries, providing comprehensive tax solutions and strategic insights. This is an exciting opportunity for a tax professional to make a significant impact and contribute to our clients’ teams. You can engage with us through your own limited company or on inside IR35 terms - whichever way gives you the freedom you’re looking for.

• Able to demonstrate knowledge within corporate tax compliance and advisory
• Advising on a wide range of corporate tax matters, including tax planning, VAT, reorganisations, and M&A transactions
• Overseeing and reviewing tax computations, tax returns, and tax accounting for clients
• Identifying opportunities for tax efficiency and risk mitigation within client businesses

Why Consultants choose the ATC:

• Work that moves you forward: When a project fits your skills, we’ll get in touch, but you choose whether it’s right for you. That means working on engagements that genuinely build your portfolio and expand your expertise.
• The freedom of contracting without the hidden admin: You’re not left to navigate the freelance world alone. Our Agile Talent team helps you understand freelance regulation and connects you with people who broaden your thinking through our teams and clients.
• Community you can actually feel: Connection shouldn’t disappear just because you’re contracting. From market insights to wellbeing sessions to networking events, you’ll be part of a community designed to make the independent path less isolated and more impactful.

We have a culture where talented people thrive – where high performance is not just expected but enabled. It’s a culture built on clarity, curiosity, and care. One that challenges us to aim higher, where we’re encouraged to make the most of an abundance of resources to fuel our own development, and where we support each other to grow, learn, and succeed. Our open and accessible culture means you’ll interact with leaders who are interested in you and everything you bring to our firm. The things that set you apart, we value them.
