Indirect / VAT Accountant

Looking for a move into tax with a business that's going places?
Here's your chance to join a major player in the leisure and hospitality sector-where things move quickly, and no two days are the same.
This is a fantastic opportunity for someone with a solid grounding in finance or accounts payable, who's now looking to grow their career in tax. You'll be part of a collaborative team with responsibility for preparing VAT and regulatory returns across a large and dynamic group.
What you'll be doing:

• 
  Preparing UK and international VAT returns across multiple entities
• 
  Supporting with multi-currency payment runs and regulatory reporting
• 
  Reviewing and improving VAT processes and controls across the Purchase Ledger team
• 
  Coaching team members on VAT best practices and providing hands-on support
• 
  Identifying risks and spotting opportunities for process improvements

You'll be working closely with finance and operational teams, so strong communication skills are key-along with the ability to adapt in a fast-paced, ever-changing business environment.
Who we're looking for:

• 
  Someone with experience in accounts payable or VAT compliance
• 
  Knowledge of multi-currency payment processes is a plus
• 
  Confident in Excel and able to analyse data effectively
• 
  Proactive, detail-focused, and eager to learn
• 
  CCAB-qualified or part-qualified - we're open to CAT, ATT, AAT, ACCA, CIMA or similar at any level

The business offers hybrid working, a supportive team culture, and the chance to develop your skills as the company continues to grow and evolve.
