London, Greater London, United Kingdom Crowe Full time
Crowe is a leading national audit, tax, advisory and risk firm with global reach and local expertise.

We are an independent member of Crowe Global, one of the top 10 accounting networks in the world, with access to more than 38,000 people in more than 145 countries and across 700+ offices globally.

We pride ourselves on looking after our people.

Whether you're working in tax, statutory audit or you're a marketing or HR specialist, at Crowe we invest in our people to help them be the best they can be.


We understand that it is often the culture and values of a firm that are most important when looking for a new workplace.

That's why at Crowe our people-focused culture means we value new ideas and innovation and welcome people who are committed to making a difference by delivering excellent services to our people, clients and communities.


Crowe's VAT team


The VAT team at Crowe is a National one which means we work as a single team but spread across the 7 UK offices.

Our VAT team includes Customs specialists and we work closely together as one regardless of our regional location.

In addition to working together, we support and work alongside the other Crowe service lines to provide multi-discipline solutions for our clients.

VAT is a transactional tax and hence it impacts all organisations across the board.

In 2021/22 it generated receipts for the Government of £143bn (almost x 2.5 more than Corporation taxes) and hence is increasingly on the radar for businesses looking to control and better manage their finances.


The Crowe team is broadly focussed towards two main areas, those being the Corporate and Not for Profit (NFP) sectors.

At a junior level there is involvement across both these which means joiners gain an insight to multiple areas of VAT such as property and construction, manufacturing, consumer goods, not-for-profit and charities, professional partnerships and financial services.

At a senior level the team are more focussed towards NFP or Corporate clients.

The team has grown rapidly over the past few years, doubling headcount and revenues.

This growth has occurred evenly across compliance and advisory work and includes, as a result of Brexit, an increase in working with the Crowe international network on cross-border client projects.


The role
Those joining the indirect tax team should have an expectation to complete professional qualifications.

Our preferred route is for graduates to become Chartered Tax Advisors (CTA) and we will facilitate this by helping you study for that qualification, including the Association Tax Technicians (ATT) qualification beforehand.


You will have unparalleled exposure to various areas within VAT and Customs to ensure you are training to the highest level and achieve a well-rounded skillset.

Your day to day responsibilities at the outset will include:

  • Supporting the compliance team to complete VAT returns;
  • Helping with advisory projects, working alongside more senior colleagues to provide support to our clients;
  • Undertaking research on technical matters; and
  • Involvement with marketing and business development activities;

There is a significant amount of interaction with other lines of services (tax, audit, corporate finance) which will help with exposure to all the different parts of Crowe.


Entry Requirements:

  • An achieved or expected 2.2 minimum in degree
  • GCSE Grade 4 (C) minimum in Maths & English Language

Why choose Crowe?


Crowe is where talented people can realise their potential, are successful and enjoy what they do by making a positive difference to our clients, communities and each other.


Our vision is to be recognised as essential to the future success of our clients by helping them to answer tomorrow's questions, and make smart decisions that have lasting value through the highest quality audit, tax, advisory and risk services.

We offer you an opportunity to continue your career and work for a firm that offers stability and knowledge. In addition, you can work alongside experienced professionals who put the client at the heart of everything they do.


At Crowe, you will find the expertise, the resources and, above all, the commitment to help you build a satisfying and rewarding career.

In return we can offer you continued career development, highly competitive salaries and flexible benefits. Plus, an opportunity to work for a firm that truly values its people.

Crowe is committed to equal opportunity and diversity in recruitment and employment.

We value the differences that a diverse workforce brings to our organisation and believe that diversity and inclusivity are key drivers of effectiveness and in providing our clients with a quality service.

We want to create the best environment for our staff to thrive.

We recognise the importance of offering a flexible approach to our working environment and we would be happy to discuss with you further.
