Corporate Tax Compliance Officer at The Talent Expert

Is this you?

• Are you a meticulously detailed professional who thrives in a dynamic environment? Do you have a knack for navigating the complexities of corporate tax with a proactive attitude and a problem-solving mindset? If you’re a results-driven individual with a passion for continual learning and excellence in tax matters, we are looking for someone like you to handle sophisticated tax operations and client interactions.

What you’ll be doing (and why you’ll enjoy it)

• In this role, you will be responsible for completing corporate income tax returns, preparing tax and deferred tax computations, and ensuring all documentation supports tax declarations and annual financial statements. You will handle SARS assessments, objections, and disputes across all tax types, ensuring timely resolution and compliance. Additionally, you will deal directly with clients and manage client correspondence, conduct research, and contribute insights on tax matters.

Where you’ll be doing it

• You will join a global network of firms known for its commitment to quality, integrity, and innovation in financial services. Our client is a leader in delivering tailored tax, audit, and consulting solutions, celebrated for fostering an inclusive culture that rewards learning and supports professional growth. Based in Rondebosch, you’ll work in an environment that challenges you to grow and allows you to make a significant impact. For your probation period you’ll be more office based but then you’ll be able to work from home (granted you’ve got wifi and sorted for loadshedding) with two days a week in office.
• The work culture is informal, down to earth and employees are valued and development is encouraged.

What you’ll need

• We are ideally looking for someone with a Bcom degree and 2-3 years of corporate tax work experience, with additional tax qualifications being advantageous. However, we will consider someone without a degree with strong experience. Experience in an audit / tax environment will serve you well, alongside excellent interpersonal, communication, and computer skills (including MS Office). You must be able to manage your time effectively, and deliver results under pressure.

What you’ll get

• This is an Employment Equity position. In addition to a competitive salary, our client offers a stimulating work environment where your skills will be recognised and developed. There are 20 leave days with an additional 2 that are taken over the festive season. Benefits include medical aid, provident fund, group life, disability, and funeral cover. Bonus is not guaranteed but has been given every year. Joining this team means being part of an organisation that values diversity, learning, collaboration, and individual growth.
