Tax Manager

Why This Role Exists

We’re looking for a hands-on, commercially minded Tax Manager to build and strengthen the group’s internal tax capability as our international business continues to grow.

Working directly with the Group CFO, you’ll take ownership of our tax compliance, risk management and strategy across multiple entities and jurisdictions. Your immediate priority will be indirect tax, including VAT, GST and sales tax, while also improving oversight of corporation tax, employment tax and cross-border obligations.

Beyond compliance, you’ll help shape our international corporate structure, identify opportunities to improve tax efficiency and support M&A activity. This is an opportunity to establish a clear, documented view of the group’s tax position and influence how tax is managed across the business.

What You’ll Own

• Tax compliance and risk: Oversee international tax obligations, prioritising VAT, GST and sales tax while managing corporation tax, payroll tax and cross-border employment considerations.
• Tax review and exposure management: Assess the existing tax position across jurisdictions, identify compliance gaps and potential liabilities, and establish clear processes for monitoring and mitigating risk.
• International tax strategy: Partner with the Group CFO to evaluate tax-efficient structures and business decisions across jurisdictions, including Ireland, the UK, Malta, Romania and the US.
• M&A and corporate structuring: Support tax due diligence, assess acquisition-related liabilities and opportunities, and contribute to post-acquisition structuring.
• External advisor management: Oversee external tax advisors and service providers, critically evaluate their recommendations and reduce unnecessary reliance on outsourced expertise.
• Research and problem-solving: Investigate unfamiliar tax rules, assess legislative changes and develop evidence-based recommendations for the business.
• Process improvement: Build consistent, well-documented tax processes and improve the visibility and accuracy of tax information across entities.
• Stakeholder partnership: Work with Finance, Technology, Data and business leaders to ensure tax implications are considered in commercial and operational decisions.
• What Success Looks Like

• First 30 days
• Build an understanding of the group’s businesses, entities, revenue flows and existing tax arrangements.
• Establish relationships with the Group CFO, Finance team and external tax advisors.
• Identify the most immediate tax compliance priorities and areas requiring further investigation.
• First 90 days
• Complete an initial review of the group’s tax position across key jurisdictions.
• Identify and prioritise known exposures, compliance gaps and indirect tax risks.
• Recommend practical improvements to filing reviews, reporting, documentation and advisor oversight.
• Within 12 months
• Establish a clear, documented and defensible view of the group’s tax position across its entities and jurisdictions.
• Ensure effective tax compliance and review processes are in place, with material risks identified and appropriately addressed.
• Introduce a proactive approach to monitoring tax legislation and assessing its impact.
• Demonstrate measurable improvements in risk management, advisor oversight and cost efficiency.
• Contribute to the group’s longer-term tax strategy, international structuring and M&A opportunities.
• What We’re Looking For
