VAT Manager

Radius has grown rapidly at a time when tax requirements have become more complex and reporting more onerous (e.g. VIDA, real-time reporting). The Group has indirect tax responsibilities for over 80 legal entities across the UK, Europe, Asia and US. We are seeking a VAT Manager to join our in‑house Indirect Tax Advisory function.

It also supports the Tax compliance team on tax treatment questions.
