**Job summary**:
Large Business is responsible for HMRC’s compliance work with the largest and most complex business customers, businesses which account for some 40% of HMRC’s annual revenues.

This is an exciting and challenging time to be part of Large Business. The taxation of multinationals remains the focus of keen media and Parliamentary interest. We have implemented a package of new measures to increase large business tax compliance and transparency, including the legislative changes flowing from the OECD-led base erosion and profit shifting agenda.
