SalaryGoodwin PLC is an international group which specialises in the design, manufacture and supply of high-quality and high precision mechanically and refractory engineered products and solutions.
The Group subsidiaries manufacture and operate in over ten countries worldwide, exporting to numerous others, enabling the Group to capitalise on local market growth and take new products to market quickly, in both established and emerging markets.
With such diverse global operations, extensive innovation and R&D activity across all facets of the business, the decision has been made to expand the Group Finance Team and bring the tax capability inhouse and augment the role with responsibility for the treasury requirements of the Group - previous treasury experience is NOT a prerequisite for the role. The business is based in Stoke-on-Trent with relocation options available.
As Head of Group Tax and Treasury, you will have the exciting opportunity to shape the role based on your expertise and career development aspirations.
Naturally, strategic tax planning is the key requirement, but effective management of elements such as;
• Transfer pricing;
• Capital Allowances planning;
• Patent box claims;
• R&D tax relief claims;
• Forex hedging and of course, the intrinsic value of a detailed and dynamic cashflow model, will all provide crucial risk mitigation and financial savings.
The successful candidate will be a fully qualified Tax Accountant (ACA, ACCA or CTA) with a background of working in a commercial environment and have;
• UK Corporation Tax experience together with knowledge of tax reporting under UK GAAP and IFRS;
• International tax experience would be useful but not essential;
• Extensive working knowledge of UK tax laws and regulations alongside experience working with tax advisers to oversee other territories’ compliance requirements.
Key to success will be an approach that is proactive and business-first, able to cultivate strategies across Tax and Treasury and present these to the board in an effective and comprehensible way. The Goodwin Group is a highly innovative orientated business and there will be multiple capital projects that will also require review, similarly with regards to further global expansion through the acquisition of either property or business entity.
This is an outstanding opportunity to join a well-established and forward thinking business as a key member of the senior finance leadership team, and embed tax as a key strategic function within the business going forward.
