A leading UK accountancy firm, ranked among the top 15 in the country and with a global network spanning 150 countries, is seeking a talented VAT Manager to join its expanding team. With a strong reputation for simplifying complexity and delivering tailored advice to clients across sectors including insurance, capital markets, and not-for-profits, this is a firm where your career can thrive.

About the Role

As a VAT Manager, you will play a pivotal role in advising a diverse portfolio of clients on a range of VAT compliance and consultancy matters. You\’ll be part of a dynamic and growing indirect tax team that plans to double in size in the next few years-creating real opportunities for future progression. If you\’re ambitious and ready to make an impact, this role is for you.

What You\’ll Be Doing

• Providing clear, well-researched VAT advice with commercial, actionable recommendations
• Liaising with HMRC to support clients in meeting their VAT obligations efficiently and accurately
• Resolving VAT treatment issues with a pragmatic and commercially sound approach
• Representing clients in discussions and negotiations with HMRC and other parties
• Managing a varied client portfolio, generating additional projects and building strong relationships
• Supporting internal teams, including Transaction Services and Restructuring, on VAT matters
• Leading training sessions and contributing to marketing and tender initiatives
• Overseeing VAT registration applications and return reviews

What You\’ll Bring

• Strong experience in VAT advisory and compliance work gained in practice
• Solid understanding of VAT legislation and principles
• Ability to explain technical matters clearly to non-specialists
• Experience managing client portfolios and delivering profitable outcomes
• Skilled at identifying and converting opportunities from existing clients into new work
• Potential sector specialism (e.g. insurance) would be advantageous but not essential
• Strong communication, problem-solving, and organisational abilities
• A collaborative, proactive, and commercially minded approach

Your Development and Progression

This firm believes in merit-based career progression and offers a supportive environment with extensive learning opportunities. You\’ll have access to internal and external training and be encouraged to grow both technically and professionally. You\’ll also play a key role in mentoring junior team members and contributing to a positive, high-performing team culture.

Preferred Qualifications

While not essential, holding a professional qualification such as ACA, CA, CTA or equivalent would be a plus.
