Distinct are proud to be partnering with International Personal Finance to recruit their next Group Tax Manager. This is a rare opportunity to shape tax strategy in an international business with purpose. \n International Personal Finance (IPF) helps millions of customers across Europe and Mexico access affordable credit and insurance products. While many financial institutions focus on customers who have the most options, IPF’s purpose is centred on supporting those who often have the fewest. For more than a century, the business has helped widen access to financial services through a responsible and sustainable approach to lending. \n Today, IPF combines the scale and complexity of an international listed group with a culture that remains collaborative, entrepreneurial and genuinely people-focused. Following internal career progression, IPF is now looking to add a Group Tax Manager to its Leeds-based team, and this is a properly broad, hands-on role rather than one focused purely on compliance delivery. \n The role \n You’ll take a hands-on lead across a wide range of UK and international tax matters, partnering closely with colleagues across finance, treasury and overseas operations. Day to day that means managing the tax affairs of UK group companies, including intra-group financing, CFC positions, CIR rules, R&D reviews and SAO requirements, alongside involvement in HMRC enquiries as they arise. \n You’ll also pick up UK tax aspects of group treasury policy and play a key role in year end and interim tax reporting for IPF’s consolidated accounts under IFRS, including review of overseas tax packs and UK tax calculations. \n There’s a strong transfer pricing element too. You’ll support the Group Head of Tax on the group’s governance framework and get stuck into the ongoing development of transfer pricing strategy, including Master File and Country by Country Reporting, and supporting APA negotiations with revenue authorities. You’ll be liaising regularly with in house local tax managers overseas, so this isn’t a role where you’re sat in isolation, it’s genuinely cross border and collaborative. \n What they’re looking for \n You’ll be ACA or CTA qualified (or both), with in depth knowledge of UK taxation including international aspects such as CFCs and CIR. Strong technical skills, the ability to manage complex issues independently, and some direct experience handling HMRC disputes are all important here. Exposure to international tax or cross border transactions would be a real advantage, though none of that is a dealbreaker if your core UK technical background is strong. \n The package \n Salary: CompetitiveCar allowance: £6,000Annual bonus: 25%Pension: 10% employer contributionPrivate medical insurance: Family coverIncome protection: 50% salary protection for five years \n Based in Leeds on a hybrid basis (2 to 3 days a week in the office), this is a role that offers real strategic visibility, international exposure and the chance to broaden your technical and commercial expertise within a listed international group, all without losing the collaborative, down to earth culture IPF is known for. \n Interested? \n If this sounds like the kind of move you’ve been thinking about, I’d love to have a conversation. All enquiries handled in the strictest confidence. \n Distinct Recruitment Privacy Policy

Corporate and Commercial Associate | 2 to 5 years PQE | Fully remote (UK) This is not a conventional Corporate Commercial Associate role and represents a superb opportunity to develop coveted specialist expertise. The work sits at the point where international tax strategy becomes legal reality: designing and implementing the corporate structures, intercompany agreements, and group reorganisations that multinational businesses rely on to stay compliant and transaction ready. If you have enjoyed the corporate work you have done so far and want to develop a genuine niche beyond general transactional support - this could be for you! The Role You will run your own workstreams on international projects for multinational groups headquartered across the UK, Europe, North America and APAC. That means drafting, reviewing and negotiating commercial agreements; designing and implementing intercompany agreement frameworks; advising on the legal aspects of cross border structures and group reorganisations; and preparing board minutes, written resolutions and the wider corporate governance documentation that sits behind them. Alongside the above you will support corporate simplification projects, debt restructurings and M&A transactions, including due diligence and implementation. Interaction with stakeholders is a key aspect of the role. You will therefore be trusted to lead on calls, speak to clients directly and liaise with their accountants, tax advisers and transfer pricing specialists. Notably, full training is provided in their specialist areas and the firm will ensure your role is commensurate with PQE. Role Requirements The ideal candidate will be qualified in England and Wales with 2 to 5 years PQE in corporate, commercial or a transactional practice. You will have strong contract drafting and negotiation skills alongside a solid grounding in company law and corporate governance, including experience preparing resolutions and board documentation. The perfect candidate will be comfortable running matters with real autonomy, whilst asking the right questions along the way. Beyond excellent legal grounding, precision will be key. This work rewards lawyers who notice the detail others skim past, who write clearly, and who can hold several moving parts in their head without losing track. Why this rare opportunity is worth a conversation • The team is a recognised international leader in its field, and you will be joining a positive and collaborative boutique firm., • You get client contact from the start and real responsibility for delivery., • Progression is available and visible., • The projects are technically demanding and international by default, and you will be collaborating with advisers from several disciplines rather than operating in a legal silo., • Salary is competitive, with private health insurance, income protection and life insurance. Please reach out to discuss this varied and rewarding opportunity in more detail.
