Ref: 840 Date Posted: Tuesday 27 Jan 2026

12-Month Contract or FTC | Day Rate or Fixed-Term | UK Based

We are supporting an international business with the appointment of a UK-based US Tax Advisor / Senior Manager to support a range of hands-on US tax projects over a 12-month assignment.

This role is specifically suited to a US-trained tax professional currently based in the UK (often a US national) with direct, first-hand experience of US tax compliance and IRS interaction. This is not a coordination or oversight role.

Key Responsibilities

  • Hands-on involvement in IRS audits, including preparation, responses and direct liaison
  • Preparation and review of US federal and state tax returns
  • Delivery of sales tax regularisation projects across multiple US jurisdictions
  • US tax support on M&A activity, including due diligence and transaction support
  • Working closely with UK and US stakeholders to resolve complex US tax matters

Candidate Profile

  • US tax trained and operating at Senior Manager / Advisor level
  • First-hand IRS audit and US tax return experience is essential
  • Strong working knowledge of US federal, state and sales taxes
  • M&A exposure from a US tax perspective
  • Comfortable working autonomously in a project-led environment
  • UK-based and eligible to work in the UK (US nationals in the UK very much encouraged)

Contract Details

  • 12-month assignment
  • Open to day rate or fixed-term contract
  • UK-based role with international exposure

This assignment will appeal to a US tax specialist in the UK who enjoys hands-on delivery and complex problem-solving rather than managing US tax at arm’s length.
