About the Opportunity An established and growing accountancy practice is looking for a Corporation Tax Administrator to join its friendly and supportive team in Surrey.

This is an excellent opportunity for an organised and detail-oriented administrator looking to develop their skills within a professional accountancy environment. Full training will be provided, so previous corporation tax experience is not essential.

Your responsibilities will include:

• Maintaining organised and secure client records, documents, tax returns and correspondence.
  
  
• Ensuring compliance with record retention policies and data security standards.
  
  
• Supporting the preparation and submission of corporation tax returns, ensuring deadlines are met.

• Managing corporation tax payment reminders, including drafting letters and emails to clients.
  
  
• Monitoring and chasing corporation tax repayments where necessary.
  
  
• Drafting standard correspondence and communicating professionally with colleagues, clients and HMRC.
  
  
• Assisting with billing administration, scanning and document management.
  
  
• Supporting appeals against late filing penalties where appropriate and monitoring responses.
  
  
• Keeping administrative procedures up to date and following relevant policies and processes.
  
  
• Providing general administrative support to the wider team as required.
  
  

About You We’re looking for someone who is proactive, organised and keen to learn, with strong attention to detail and the ability to manage competing priorities.

You’ll ideally have:

• GCSEs in Maths and English at grade 5 or above, or equivalent.
  
  
• Previous experience in an administrative role, ideally within a busy office environment.
  
  
• Excellent organisational and time management skills.
  
  
• Strong written and verbal communication skills.

• The ability to handle confidential and sensitive financial information professionally.
  
  
• Good IT skills and confidence using Microsoft Office and other business software.
  
  
• The ability to adapt to changing priorities and work effectively to deadlines.
  
  
• A positive attitude, a proactive approach and the ability to work both independently and as part of a team.
  
  

No previous corporation tax experience is required, as full training will be provided. This role would suit someone looking to build a long-term career in accountancy administration.
