Head of Tax – PE-Backed Technology Business

Head of Tax – PE-Backed Technology Business

Manchester – Leadership role – Equity Opportunity

A high-growth, PE-backed technology business is looking to appoint its first Head of Tax, a pivotal hire as they continue to scale at pace.

This is a unique opportunity to join a tech innovator that’s reshaping its sector through rapid product expansion, international growth, and investment backing.

There is a lot of low-hanging fruit to tackle here. The companies ETR is high, and they often miss opportunities to act on advice from their external partners. With the PE-backing, there is also opportunity for inorganic growth and the complexities that come with that. The company is also considering an ERP implementation.

What’s on Offer:

• A board-facing leadership role in one of the North West’s most exciting scale-ups
• Equity participation
• Autonomy to build and shape the tax function
• A flat structure with a welcoming culture

Who We’re Looking For:

You’ll be a senior tax professional with a strong grounding in UK corporate tax and exposure to international issues, either from a Big 4 / Top Tier firm or an in-house role in a fast-paced business.

Experience in a PE-backed or high-growth environment is advantageous, but the real priority is someone who is commercial and proactive. We would consider applicants without prior Head of Tax experience.
