**Job description**:
KPMG International Services Ltd (“**KISL”**), a $1bn+ company, seeks a full-time in-house VAT Leader who will have overall responsibility for all areas of KISL’s indirect tax affairs.
- Systems and process which enable the preparation and filing of VAT returns including, in conjunction with Finance, overseeing the development of systems where they need to incorporate e.g. a new VAT registration or where reconciliation work can be automated.
- VAT filings, including reconciliations between the VAT returns and accounting systems and dealing with the data aspects of any tax audits.
- VAT advisory - dealing with the tax technical aspects of ad hoc projects and queries as and when they arise, and assessing the indirect tax consequences of new services and new operating locations.

KISL is a UK company with a footprint in several non-UK jurisdictions including the US. The KPMG network operates in 145 countries. We therefore routinely manage issues involving numerous jurisdictions. Most of the indirect tax work relates to European VAT, but there is also an HST (Canadian indirect tax) element. Other indirect tax compliance work, including sales & use tax, falls within the role. The work is varied and we operate in a challenging and stimulating environment.

The existing 10 person strong in-house tax team is largely London based, with a Head of Tax based in the US. The role also involves working closely with our Finance Team who sit in Toronto, Canada, and our third-party offshore Finance Provider, which is based in India.

Responsibilities include;
- With the support of a full time VAT Management Accountant, Finance and our Outsource Provider, overall responsibility for the timely filing of all indirect tax returns, and dealing with the data aspects of any indirect tax audits.
- Managing and mentoring the junior members of the in-house VAT team
- Ensuring the VAT aspects of our systems and processes are efficient and fully support the VAT filings, and that data has been contemporaneously reconciled between the accounting systems and VAT returns by Finance and our Outsource Provider.
- Dealing with the VAT systems aspects of new VAT registrations and new business opportunities, including any new digital filing or real time reporting requirements.
- Working with other KISL Teams on the VAT aspects of the overall systems strategy including, in conjunction with Finance, evaluating and recommending technology solutions to improve the efficiency and, or, accuracy of VAT reporting.
- Responsibility for managing the VAT aspects of the Outsource Provider’s output, and for working with Senior Members of the Finance Team on VAT related compliance and systems matters, including maintaining a strong working relationship with all relevant stakeholders.
- Dealing with tax authorities on indirect tax related matters.
- Analysing the indirect tax implications, often across several jurisdictions, in relation to day to day business matters and one off transactions, working in conjunction with corporate tax colleagues.
- Assessing new business activities and services and the resulting indirect tax implications, including obligations to register in new territories and resulting systems implications.
- Keeping abreast of developments in indirect taxes around the world and ensuring that KISL is well placed to deal with the practical implications of any new regimes.
- Have a track record of managing all aspects of the VAT affairs of a large multi national corporate group and overseeing the work of supporting staff
- Have experience in overseeing the timely, accurate filing of indirect tax returns across multiple jurisdictions, including ensuring that all internal and external parties / teams who are critical to success are adhering to agreed quality requirements and delivery timelines.
- Be experienced in the VAT aspects of systems and process related matters, including reconciliation of data to accounting systems.
- Be capable of driving the VAT systems and process strategy, including identifying systems solutions for new indirect tax registrations and new trends in VAT reporting (e.g. digital invoicing), and preferably have some experience in systems change management.
- Have a strong technical skill base, with experience of assessing new indirect VAT regimes and analysing complex transactions, commissioning and evaluating work from advisors as necessary.
- Have experience of dealing with tax authorities, including on tax audits.
- Have strong interpersonal and leadership skills..
