Where you’ll work:

At OVO, we understand that a one size fits all approach doesn’t work for everyone. That’s why we created the OVO Way of Flexibility.

All our roles are hub based (Bristol, Glasgow or London), providing a dedicated space for collaboration, connection and teamwork, however within this role you’ll have the flexibility to work mostly from home.

Everyone belongs at OVO

At OVO, we are on a mission to solve one of humanity's biggest challenges, the climate crisis. And we know it takes all of us to change the world. That's why we need diverse people from all abilities, gender identities, ethnicities, ages, sexual orientations, life experiences and backgrounds to join us.

Teamworking for the planet

Everything we do here spins around Plan Zero. So, naturally, the team you’ll be joining plays a gigantic role in making that happen, and having an efficiently functioning Finance team will help us towards this journey.

This role in a nutshell:

This role will be a key member of the Indirect tax team. This is an essential role which will be focused on providing expert indirect tax support for VAT-focused projects, with an emphasis on compliance, process reviews, and internal controls.

Your key outcomes will be:

  • Review and document end-to-end VAT processes from source to return.
  • Analyse and adapt processes to support VAT projects and transitional activities.
  • Identify and implement control improvements to ensure robust compliance.
  • Partner with wider finance and technology project teams to design and implement necessary processes and reporting.
  • Proactively identify necessary actions and take ownership of delivering changes, with support from the Senior Indirect Tax Manager.
  • Assisting the Indirect Tax Senior Manager with projects and support as required.

You’ll be a successful Indirect Tax Manager here at OVO if you…

  • Are ACA/CTA qualified.
  • Possess excellent indirect tax technical knowledge.
  • Are a strong team player, recognising the needs of all stakeholders and ensuring outcomes maximise value and impact across the enterprise.
  • Have the ability to problem solve complex issues, by using your experience and skills.
  • Are diligent with a preference for attention to detail, and be willing to investigate at depth to resolve problems.
  • Have excellent communication skills in order to explain complex tax issues and information to a non-tax audience.
  • Have In-house experience in a consumer facing business.

Ideally you will have:

  • A strong background in indirect tax, with specific expertise in compliance processes and financial controls.
  • The ability to identify 'what needs to happen' and comfortably take ownership of delivery.
  • A collaborative approach, and a team player who is comfortable working with finance teams and wider project teams.
  • Excellent communication skills to bridge the gap between tax, the wider finance function and the operational business areas.

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
