Capital Tax Recruitment
London

An exciting opportunity has arisen for an experienced VAT Manager to join a dynamic and growing advisory team. This role offers the chance to work on a wide range of VAT matters across multiple industries, taking ownership of client relationships and delivering high-quality advisory solutions.

The Role

As a VAT Manager, you will play a key part in leading client engagements, managing a diverse portfolio, and supporting senior colleagues on complex projects. This role is advisory-led, but will also involve occasional compliance oversight. Candidates will be expected to translate complex VAT technical issues into clear, practical advice for clients and internal stakeholders alike.

Key Responsibilities

* Managing a portfolio of VAT advisory projects across a variety of sectors.
* Providing practical solutions on property and not-for-profit (NFP) VAT matters, with wider exposure to corporate finance, media, recruitment, and international issues.
* Reviewing VAT returns and assumptions prepared by compliance specialists.
* Advising clients on VAT implications of contracts, transactions, and international services.
* Supporting clients during HMRC enquiries, disputes, and inspections.
* Taking ownership of smaller projects, managing deadlines, and working directly with clients.
* Working closely with other teams across the firm to handle internal referrals and cross-disciplinary projects.
* Contributing to marketing initiatives, VAT updates, and client events.

About You

We are seeking a proactive VAT professional with strong technical knowledge, excellent communication skills, and the ability to manage relationships at all levels. The successful candidate will have:

* Broad VAT advisory experience, ideally including property and/or not-for-profit sectors.
* Experience in handling HMRC queries and inspections.
* Confidence to manage client relationships independently.
* Commercial awareness and the ability to provide practical planning ideas.
* A collaborative mindset with the flexibility to manage multiple deadlines.

What's on Offer

* Exposure to a wide variety of VAT projects across multiple industries.
* The opportunity to work closely with experienced Directors and Partners.
* Career progression within a supportive and ambitious team.
* A blend of autonomy and collaboration, with real scope to make an impact.

Interested candidates are encouraged to send their CV to: [email protected]
