Job Details
Tax Manager | Entertainment & Media Specialist | West End, London | Up to £75,000 + Bonus
CTA/ATT/QBE | Hybrid Working
A global leader in financial and professional services for the sports, media and entertainment industries is expanding its London tax team. This is a rare opportunity to work with some of the world's most celebrated talent across music, film, TV and sports - handling genuinely complex, high-value work that's anything but typical.
You'll be the third hire into a close-knit, growing team, working alongside two experienced tax professionals on a client base that's as interesting as it gets: HNWIs, ultra-HNWIs, international performers, touring productions, and high-profile creative industry clients.
The Tax Manager Role
This role encompasses compliance and advisory, with significant exposure to US/UK crossover taxation. You'll manage your own diverse portfolio while supporting partners on technical projects and mentoring junior staff as the team grows.
The work includes:
- US/UK crossover taxation: Clients relocating from the US to the UK, withholding tax compliance, and international entertainment tax matters
- Corporate tax: Simple entities through to complex group structures
- Personal tax: High-net-worth and ultra-high-net-worth individuals, often with offshore structures
- IHT & estate planning: Substantial estates, clients with numerous wills across jurisdictions, working with international lawyers
- Trusts & asset structuring: Family wealth planning and group asset arrangements
- Entertainment-specific work: Film productions, touring musicians non-resident, share transfers
- Advisory projects: Supporting partners on technical tax planning and consultancy work
This isn't a typical tax role. There's constantly something different happening, and you'll need to stay current tax rules, creative industry developments, and the evolving US/UK tax landscape.
About You
You're technically strong, commercially minded, and ready to step up. You thrive on variety and complex work, and you're not easily starstruck - you'll be dealing with high-profile clients as part of the day job.
You'll bring:
- CTA, ATT or strong QBE - minimum 2 years post-qualified experience
- Mixed tax experience across corporate and personal
- HNWI exposure - ideally with some US or offshore experience
- Technical strength across residency, CGT, share schemes, and ideally withholding tax or creative industry tax credits
- Strong communication skills - you're confident with clients, colleagues and external advisers
- A stable CV - they're looking for someone who'll grow with the team, and shows longevity in their employment roles
- Commercial awareness and a good sense of humour
You'll be a strong team player who's proactive, effective at communicating with all stakeholders, and capable of working independently while supporting others.
What's On Offer
- Salary up to £80,000 (they're not driven by title - they'll pay well for the right person)
- Discretionary bonus (circa 3%)
- 35-hour working week
- Hybrid working - primarily office-based with Wednesday WFH option
- Birthday leave for weekday birthdays
- Flexible working policies with core hours 8:30am-10:30am
- Pension plan
- External training provider for ongoing career development
- Professional body subscription paid
- Enhanced parental and family leave
- "Dress for your diary" approach to office wear
- West End location - surrounded by restaurants, cafés, excellent transport links
- Regular social events - bowling, darts, golf, VR challenges
The firm uses CCH and Xero for MTD, and they're forward-thinking - currently implementing AI systems and modernising their tech infrastructure.
The Team & Culture
You'll be joining a supportive, dynamic team that's genuinely invested in professional development. The culture is collaborative and sociable, with a real emphasis on delivering first-class service to an exciting client base.
This is a division of the world's largest business management firm, headquartered in Los Angeles, with four business units: tax, business management, financial reporting, and corporate finance. You'll have exposure across the business and genuine progression opportunities as the team grows.
Interview Process
Two-stage process with senior members of the tax team and leadership.
Next Steps
If you're a technically strong tax professional looking for genuinely interesting work, real advisory exposure, and the chance to build something as the third member of a growing team, this is an excellent opportunity.
