corporate tax compliance and advisory
for large or complex clients.

We're looking for someone who is:

  • CA/CPA or CTA qualified (or near completion)
  • Experienced in corporate income tax and FBT compliance
  • Confident communicating with senior stakeholders and external advisers

    first move into a commercial in-house role
  • Proactive, adaptable, and eager to broaden their skillset beyond pure compliance

  • Exposure to board-level reporting, projects, and commercial strategy
