In-House Assistant Tax Manager, Insurance

In-House Assistant Tax Manager, Insurance

City of London/remote working

£70,000-£75,000 + 20% bonus, benefits & flexibility

A leading insurance business is conducting a search for an ambitious Assistant Tax Manager, in-house. Reporting to the Senior Tax Manager for EMEA, the successful candidate will work with a close-knit direct tax team of 4, situated within a larger tax presence in London.

This position is initially purposed to support on fulfilling tax compliance and reporting requirements for the EMEA business. However, the tax leader's strategy for team development is to form both well-rounded skillsets (i.e., compliance & advisory) and progression plans for each team member. This position will therefore additionally support on transfer pricing matters, and an increasing degree of international taxes/advisory work.

Specific responsibilities will include:

• Tax accounting & reporting (under US, UK & local GAAPs) & preparing tax reporting disclosure/tax provisions
• Collaborating with team members and Big 4 advisors, reviewing outsourced tax preparations
• Supporting the dedicated transfer pricing team member with documentation review and improvement
• Ad-hoc advisory/project support, working alongside the EMEA Senior Tax Manager and Head of Tax
• Contributing to ongoing process improvement in light of a wide-scale finance transformation initiative currently underway
• Keeping abreast of legislative developments in tax, monitoring business impact and contributing to tax policy, risk & controls

Given the size/background of the team and established nature of the tax function, this makes an excellent opportunity for the qualified tax adviser who is looking to solidify their compliance experience in-house, before taking an increasing advisory focus.

The successful candidate's CV:

• ACA/CTA qualification essential
• A grounding in UK corporate taxes
• Experience with tax accounting & reporting (US GAAP preferred), including experience current & deferred taxes
• Sector-specific insurance experience is not required - however prior FS experience, or experience within a complex, international and regulated business is preferred
• Prior in-house/secondment experience preferred
• French/Spanish language skills are a bonus point
