Job Description

About Us

We are part of International Airlines Group (IAG), one of the world’s leading airline groups and owner of some of the biggest brands in the sky.

IAG Transform provides creative and innovative solutions to drive sustainable transformation by delivering procurement and airline services, as well as group-wide systems across IAG. Each operating company benefits from the Transform centralised model, driving efficiencies, automation, and economies of scale.

Purpose of the role

This role will play a critical part in supporting the tax affairs of IAG Loyalty (including BA Holidays), a growing part of the Group. In addition to corporation tax, the role offers exposure to indirect taxes, while also playing a meaningful role in the operation and continuous improvement of the Group’s tax control framework.

The IAG Group Tax team provides tax compliance and advisory services across the group. It is a relatively small group of high-performing individuals working as a team, each an expert in their own field, focused on driving results and collaborating with internal and external stakeholders. The UK based team works closely with a team based in Poland, a tax team based in Spain and a tax manager in Ireland. The team is led by a Group Tax Director, based in the UK.

Your responsibilities

The role will include, but will not be limited to:

  • Preparation and submission of corporation tax computations and returns.
  • Ensuring timely submission of quarterly instalment payments.
  • Supporting quarterly and year‑end reporting processes, including current and deferred tax calculations.
  • Providing tax advice on new initiatives and commercial arrangements.
  • Playing an active role in the design, maintenance and operation of the Group’s tax governance and controls framework, including documentation, monitoring, testing and, where required, remediation of key tax controls.
  • Supporting transfer pricing, intra‑group arrangements and wider international tax matters.
  • Developing technical knowledge of indirect taxes (including VAT) and contributing actively to indirect tax matters as part of the role, working closely with the IAG Loyalty Tax Manager and the wider Group Tax and operational finance teams.
  • Assisting with indirect tax compliance activities, including supporting the preparation and review of VAT returns and related submissions, and helping to address indirect tax queries and issues.
  • Manage relationships with internal and external stakeholders.
  • Keep the IAG Loyalty Tax Manager regularly informed of all tax matters, ensuring visibility and alignment across the team.

Your skills, experience and qualifications

  • Professionally qualified accountant (CA/ACA) or Chartered Tax Adviser (CTA), or equivalent with demonstrable experience in corporation tax.
  • Experience of, or interest in developing further expertise in, indirect tax matters, alongside corporation tax responsibilities.
  • Experience gained in a large or complex group environment would be beneficial.
  • Experience of corporation tax compliance and tax accounting processes.
  • Innovative problem-solving skills, ability to look at a broad range of solutions, including the application of automation/AI to tax processes.
  • Strong interpersonal and influencing skills, with high levels of maturity.
  • Able to cope under pressure and deliver to tight deadlines.
  • High level of integrity and professional judgement

What we offer

  • The chance to enjoy a challenging career in an exciting, fast-moving environment in a dynamic industry.
