Group Head of Tax & Treasury

Orka Financial is currently working with a healthcare business which is looking to hire a Group Head of Tax & Treasury on a fixed term contract. The role will be for a minimum of twelve months but has a strong chance of going beyond that.

The Group Head of Tax & Treasury is a stand alone role. Our client is keen to find someone who is used to working in a hands-on environment with good experience of managing all group tax affairs including compliance, governance and strategy. Previous experience of M&A would be a bonus as the business is more than likely to go through a transition in the future.

Reporting to the Group Finance Director, you will drive tax planning and be the key point of contact for HMRC for any enquiries. You will need to ensure that the group maintains all compliance requirements, prepare any statutory accounts disclosure notes that relate to tax and provide day to day tax advice for the business units in the group. The treasury element of the role is relatively straight forward as our client is UK based with no forex to deal with. Most of the treasury work is around bank reporting.

Ideally you will be a qualified tax accountant or chartered tax advisor with a wide range of experience across tax and treasury. You must have worked in a large, multi-site environment and have previously prepared Corporation Tax, VAT and Employment Tax returns.

This role requires you to be in the office one day per week, with the standard working hours being 9am to 5:30pm. Our client have onsite parking, but are also close to good public transport links.
