Tax Assurance and Risk Management Manager

Ideas | People | Trust

We’re BDO. An accountancy and business advisory firm, providing the advice and solutions entrepreneurial organisations need to navigate today’s changing world.

We work with the companies that are Britain’s economic engine – ambitious, entrepreneurially-spirited and high‑growth businesses that fuel the economy - and directly advise the owners and management teams that lead them.

We’ll broaden your horizons

Our Tax Assurance & Risk Management (‘TA&RM’) team has experienced consistent and strong growth for a number of years, now having three dedicated tax partners and over 20 individuals supporting over 300 clients from fast growth entrepreneurial businesses to large FTSE 100 clients. 

Tax governance and risk management is on the agenda of a wide range of stakeholders – from Boards of Directors, to Governments, Regulators and wider society.  Our work helps provide assurance to those stakeholders over the tax operations of our clients, as well as assisting in optimising our clients’ tax performance.  The work is a great combination of helping our clients meet relevant compliance obligations (eg Senior Accounting Officer / Corporate Criminal Offences) as well as advisory work in developing best in class, global tax functions

Our team at all levels are recognised specialists in the area of tax risk, tax governance, economic crime and the development of tax control frameworks.  Members of the team also present nationally and internationally at client tax conferences and webinars. 

Technology is also very important to us and BDO provides the intellectual freedom at all levels to encourage initiative in the development of tools and training and some of these can be seen on our BDO Store.

We’ll help you succeed

Leading organisations trust us because of the quality of our advice.  That quality grows from a thorough understanding of their business, and that understanding comes from working closely with them and building long-lasting relationships.

You’ll be someone who is both comfortable working pro-actively and managing your own tasks, as well as confident collaborating with others and communicating regularly with senior management at our clients, as well as directors, and BDO partners across the Firm. You’ll be encouraged to identify and draw attention to opportunities for enhancing our delivery and providing additional services to organisations we work with.

You’ll be someone with:

  • Education to degree level, and/or CTA and/or ACA qualified or equivalent

  • Experience of Tax Risk work an advantage (including tax process, strategy, SAO and CCO) – definitely a keen interest in governance and risk management.

  • Strong presentation style, and confidence in hosting workshops, training sessions and webinars

  • Excellent communication skills to participate in the management of the group, contact with clients and to recognise business development opportunities.

  • Able to lead on projects and produce high quality reports.

  • Personal responsibility for own decisions and actions of others.

You’ll be able to be yourself; we’ll recognise and value you for who you are and celebrate and reward your contributions to the business.  We’re committed to agile working, and we offer every colleague the opportunity to work in ways that suit you, your teams, and the task at hand.
