Senior Manager - Employer Solutions

KPMG is part of a global network of firms that offers Audit, Tax & Legal, Consulting, Deal Advisory and Technology services. Through the talent of over 16,000 colleagues, we bring our creativity and insight to our clients' most critical challenges.

With offices across the UK, we work with everyone from small start-ups and individuals to major multinationals, in virtually every industry imaginable. Our work is often complex, yet our vision is simple: to be the clear choice for our clients, for our people and for the communities we work in.

Why KPMG?

KPMG's Tax practice is a dynamic and successful area of our business. A constantly changing and increasingly high-profile field, Tax can offer a surprisingly broad range of quality career paths to ambitious people.

Our Employer Solutions team advises employers on their tax withholding and reporting obligations, in relation to salary, bonus, expenses and benefits. The team is also involved in wider workforce issues such as the National Minimum Wage, Off-Payroll Working, the Apprenticeship Levy and Gender Pay Gap reporting, as well as the operational challenges associated with employer compliance.

As you would expect, this involves detailed tax advice and compliance - what you might not expect is the diversity of skills within our team, which range from tax, payroll, pensions and executive reward through to HR, technology and benefits. We believe the way we are organised and the variety we offer sets us apart from the competition. We can offer you the business challenge and career opportunity you are seeking, in an uplifting team environment.

Employer Solutions operates as a national practice and we work on a wide variety of clients including many household names. The work includes both ongoing annuity work and significant one-off projects as part of our employment tax, payroll advisory, Construction Industry (CIS) and wider expenses/benefits consultancy.
