Why This Role Matters

As a Tax Manager, you'll take ownership of tax and statutory compliance for Dext across a genuinely international footprint - the UK, Bulgaria, South Africa, Australia, US, Canada, New Zealand, Singapore and France. This is a rare opportunity for a tax professional stepping into their first standalone management role, offering both broad autonomy and the mentorship of the IRIS Group Head of Tax.

Own end-to-end multi-jurisdictional tax compliance across nine countries, including corporation tax, VAT/GST, withholding tax, transfer pricing and R&D tax credits
Act as the key liaison between Dext and its external tax advisors globally, translating technical detail into practical guidance for the business
Prepare the UK corporate tax return in-house, alongside tax provisions and cash tax forecasting
Contribute to Group-wide tax matters (c. 20% of role), including Pillar Two, Corporate Criminal Offence compliance, transfer pricing policy and M&A tax due diligence

What We're Looking For

2–3 years' tax compliance experience, with some exposure to multi-jurisdictional obligations
CTA, ACA, ACCA or CPA qualified, part-qualified, or qualified by experience, with strong corporate tax knowledge and working familiarity of VAT/GST
Confidence to operate independently, with sound judgement on when to escalate to senior stakeholders

Why You'll Love Working Here

Impact: Your work will influence millions globally.
Growth: Continuous learning and career development opportunities, backed by direct mentorship from senior tax leadership.
Belonging: A culture that celebrates diversity and empowers every individual.
