Introducing the Trainline Tax Team 👋
Trainline is a FTSE 250 global travel tech business, and our Tax team plays a central role in how we manage our financial responsibilities across the Group. Since our Group Head of Tax joined, we have been on an exciting journey - building out a dynamic in-house tax function and transitioning from a fully outsourced model to a proactive, value-adding internal advisory and compliance capability. With a clear roadmap in place and an enthusiastic Senior Tax Analyst already embedded in the team, this is a genuinely compelling moment to join and help shape the next chapter of what our tax function can be.

You will work closely with colleagues across Finance, HR Operations, Legal, and Treasury, acting as a key bridge between the tax function and the wider business, whilst also playing an active role in supporting the professional development of the Senior Tax Analyst and managing relationships with external advisors and auditors.
