  • Comprehensive knowledge of UK tax legislation including Corporate Tax, VAT, Employment and CIS
  • Passionate about Tax, with a mindset of continuous learning to stay updated on Tax laws and industry best practices.
  • Proven self-starter - given the breadth of the role you may not have all the answers but you’ll need strong foundational knowledge and a proactive approach.
