At WTW a key focus is for Group Tax to manage their global tax compliance, reporting and statutory accounting obligations, through outsourcing, transformation and technology.
WTW has launched a search for (Assistant) Manager, Operational Excellence to assist the Director in identifying tax technology needs, opportunities for process improvements, automation, and increased efficiency to create best practices for the tax function.
This role is multi-faceted and provides a unique opportunity to help establish new processes for the tax team, working in a collaborative partnership cross-functionally with WTW’s IT and finance operations across the organisation.
We want tax transformation expertise to drive better visibility, greater efficiency and improved risk management across our organisation. This role will focus on process improvement, and integrating cutting-edge technologies, process automation, and AI.
In addition, the development of the new global minimum tax regime by the OECD, which has been agreed to by over 130 countries, has resulted in an unprecedented demand for tax transformation work in the UK and globally.
We are offering a full time role with flexible working arrangements. You will also have the opportunity to develop your career in a dynamic part of the business, within a team that embraces diversity and personal development.
We are looking for a talented Manager to join us in any European or Asian office (although flexibility on location will be considered).
