Senior Tax Manager

I’m supporting a growing, consulting-led tax transformation practice that is expanding its leadership capability within indirect tax technology delivery in London.

This opportunity is particularly well suited to professionals currently operating within mid-tier consulting firms or large global system integrators, who have developed strong delivery experience across SAP-enabled tax transformation programmes and are now looking to step into a more strategic, ownership-driven role.

What they’re looking for:

• 6+ years’ consulting experience across SAP delivery and tax transformation
• Strong expertise in Indirect Tax / VAT / GST process design
• Proven experience implementing tax requirements within SAP environments
• Delivery experience across 2–3 full lifecycle SAP S/4HANA programmes
• Strong functional knowledge across FI / MM / SD, with a focus on tax configuration
• Ability to translate tax policy into system design and embedded ERP controls
• Experience leading tax workstreams across regional or multi-country programmes
• Confident stakeholder engagement across Tax, Finance, and IT

Strongly suited to candidates from:

• Accenture
• HCLTech
• Infosys
• Wipro
• Capgemini
• Cognizant
• Or similar consulting / systems integration environments

Why this role stands out:

• Opportunity to lead indirect tax transformation rather than support SAP delivery
• Ownership of tax design decisions across complex, international ERP programmes
• Increased visibility with senior tax leadership and finance stakeholders
• Clear pathway toward strategic tax advisory and programme leadership
• Defined progression toward Director-level responsibility
• Exposure to SAP Document & Reporting Compliance, automation, digital reporting, and emerging AI-enabled tax controls

Core Focus of the Role:

This is not a pure SAP configuration role.

The focus is on:

• Bridging indirect tax technical expertise with SAP implementation
• Owning VAT treatment within ERP design
• Driving tax requirements across transformation programmes
• Leading tax-specific solution delivery within broader finance initiatives

Ideal Background:

Candidates currently operating as:

• SAP Tax Lead
• Indirect Tax Technology Manager
• SAP Finance Tax Consultant
• Tax Transformation Manager
• Senior SAP VAT Consultant
