This fast expanding international business is looking to appoint an International Tax Reporting Manager with the intention of further strengthening their international tax governance and controls. This will involve working alongside the International Tax Controller to improve the group tax reporting process by implementing a newly developed local tax provisioning pack and associated group tax reconciliation. This will also ensure that real-time data can be gathered for group tax compliance e.g. controlled foreign corporations, country-by-country and Pillar 2 reporting purposes.
Responsibilities will include:
- Planning each tax reporting cycle, including the testing of the internal templates and gathering all required data prior to distribution to all stakeholder groups.
- Review of balance sheet reconciliations of tax accounts as captured within the newly developed local packs, so as to ensure that all opening tax balances are in line with expectation, and all tax payments and charges are properly recorded in the ledgers.
- Identification and resolution of issues within local tax provisions and tax status questionnaires, as prepared by the local finance/tax teams.
- Calculating the various BAU / group-level tax adjustments including the identification of any (tax impact of) late PBT changes, the recognition of deferred tax assets under IAS 12 and any future movements in uncertain tax positions under IFRIC 23.
- Analysing the tax positions at jurisdictional level for purposes of transitional CbCR safe harbour and Pillar 2 (in terms of adjusted covered tax and GloBE income).
- Act as key liaison point with the local finance teams once the local packs are signed off by the International Tax Controller to ensure that tax journals both from a P&L and B/S perspectives are appropriately entered into the system and in turn, that the final tax balances in D365 materially aligns to the group tax reconciliation.
- First level preparation / update of the rolling tax summary and associated tax memos ensuring all key tax positions, events and issues are accurately documented, all of which ultimately feeds into the group tax reconciliation.
- Liaising with the wider Group Tax team to deal with any auditor's tax queries and requests with regard to the group accounts.
The ideal candidate will need to be a qualified accountant / tax advisor with strong tax accounting / IFRS knowledge. They will need to have a strong background in UK corporation tax and a good understanding of international tax issues around CbCR and Pillar 2.
