Why we need you

We’re building experiences that wow our customers – and that starts with bold, curious people who want to do work that matters.
If you’re hungry to grow, excited by impact and ready for a challenge that will supercharge your career, this could be your moment.

As our Head of Tax - Advocacy and Policy, you'll support the Tax Director by owning the group’s external tax engagement, tax policy leadership, monitoring of tax developments, and oversight of tax disputes. You’ll play a key part in enabling informed business decision‑making by ensuring that the group is prepared for, influences where appropriate, and responds effectively to changes in tax legislation, regulation, and administrative practice.

You will balance proactive advocacy and forward‑looking technical leadership with effective management of tax controversy, ensuring that the organisation’s tax positions are defensible, consistent, and aligned with the group’s commercial objectives and tax risk appetite.

Your drive and ideas will help us move faster, improve smarter, and stay ahead of the game.

What you’ll do

You’ll take ownership of work that gives us our competitive edge, including:

Tax Advocacy & External Engagement

• Lead the group’s tax advocacy agenda with revenue authorities, regulators, industry bodies, and relevant policy‑making forums.
• Participate in industry consultations and working groups to represent the group’s interests and influence the development of tax law and administrative practice.
• Draft and coordinate submissions on legislative proposals, discussion papers, and administrative guidance (directly or via industry bodies).
• Support constructive, transparent engagement with revenue authorities to promote certainty and reduce future dispute risk.

Tax Policy & Technical Leadership

• Develop, maintain, and update group tax policies, technical opinions, and position papers across relevant tax types.
• Serve as the internal technical escalation point for complex or contentious interpretive tax issues.
• Ensure consistent technical positions are applied across jurisdictions, business units, and tax workstreams.
• Provide authoritative guidance to other tax team portfolios (Compliance, Advisory, Audit & Defence) on policy and interpretative matters.

Tax Developments & Forward‑Looking Preparedness

• Monitor and assess tax legislative, regulatory, and administrative developments across relevant jurisdictions.
• Analyse the business impact of proposed and enacted tax changes, including operational, financial, and systems implications.
• Communicate tax developments to senior management and the wider business in a clear, practical, and timely manner.
• Support proactive planning and pre‑emptive risk mitigation strategies in anticipation of future changes.

Governance & Stakeholder Management

• Maintain central oversight of advocacy positions, policy interpretations, and dispute outcomes to ensure institutional consistency.
• Coordinate contributions from internal stakeholders (Legal, Finance, Risk, Government Relations) where relevant.
• Provide structured updates to the Tax Director and senior leadership on advocacy activity, tax developments, and dispute trends.

This list covers your core responsibilities – with plenty of room to stretch, explore and take on new challenges as we grow.
