Assistant Manager – Indirect Tax (VAT) Leeds (Hybrid) | Permanent | Professional Services

Are you ready to elevate your VAT career and step into a role where your expertise truly makes an impact?

We’re recruiting on behalf of a leading professional services firm that is expanding its Indirect Tax team. This is an exceptional opportunity for a VAT professional who wants real progression, diverse advisory exposure, and the chance to work with a forward-thinking leadership team.
If you’re looking for a role that challenges, rewards, and genuinely invests in your development — this is it.

What You’ll Be Doing
In this high-visibility role, you will:
  • Manage a varied VAT portfolio across multiple sectors
  • Get involved in complex advisory work — not just compliance
  • Review VAT returns, assess risks, and uncover commercial opportunities
  • Support senior leaders on high-value and strategic client projects
  • Mentor junior staff and contribute to a positive team culture
  • Build strong relationships with clients and internal stakeholders
  • Stay up to date with VAT legislation and guide clients through key changes
This role offers the perfect balance of autonomy, development, and support.

Who You Are
You are a VAT professional who:
  • Has experience in indirect tax (professional services or in-house)
  • Enjoys tackling complex VAT issues
  • Communicates confidently and professionally
  • Can manage competing deadlines without compromising quality
  • Is ambitious and ready for more responsibility
  • Holds or is working towards CTA/ATT (beneficial but not essential)
If you’re curious, driven, and ready to take the next step, you’ll thrive here.

Why This Role Stands Out
This is not just another Assistant Manager vacancy. You will benefit from:
  • A clear progression pathway to Manager level and beyond
  • Hybrid working with flexibility
  • Exposure to interesting and impactful advisory work
  • A supportive and collaborative team culture
  • Leadership genuinely committed to your career development
  • A competitive salary and benefits package
If you want a role that offers variety, progression, and genuine opportunity, this is the one.
