Tax Accountant; Corporate & VAT

GoGlobal is establishing an in-house UK corporate tax and VAT capability to support a growing portfolio of clients. The role combines hands‑on tax compliance delivery with technical support to the business‑development process.

The postholder prepares and reviews UK Corporation Tax and VAT returns and files them with HMRC to deadline, while maintaining the supporting accounting records. In addition, the postholder provides technical tax input to the sales process, including scoping client requirements, estimating effort and supporting proposals and pricing, and advises clients across corporate tax and VAT.

The role sits within the Accounting, Tax & Payments function and reports to the Regional Product Owner (EMEA). Two positions are available, at Senior and Junior level, to provide cover, resilience and a route for progression. The working language is English and no additional language is required, giving access to a broad candidate pool from UK practice and industry.

GoGlobal acts as its clients' UK tax agent, and is registered with HMRC and supervised for anti‑money‑laundering purposes in accordance with HMRC's Standard for Agents. The postholder operates within this framework.
