Lloyd’s is the world’s leading insurance and reinsurance marketplace, bringing together the world’s leading risk takers to advance global progress.
Our strategy is focused on delivering strong underwriting performance, operating an efficient and flexible marketplace, and maximising the capital advantage of the Lloyd’s market — while continuing to build a Lloyd’s we are proud of.
How we deliver this, matters. We take the risk, make things happen, and own the outcome — working together across our global network to turn insight into impact.
The Role
This role is a critical enabler of the Tax Strategy and will lead the delivery and operationalisation of change across the function. The Tax Transformation Manager will work across all tax workstreams to drive execution of strategic change, embed modern tax processes and technologies, and support the Tax Leadership Team in managing key risks (such as key person risk and outdated systems risk) and delivering sustainable long-term improvements. Given the criticality of the US tax return process, the role reports directly to the Head of North America Tax to ensure senior accountability and momentum behind this priority workstream. The role holder will also directly support the Head of Tax (Michael Ludlow) and be an invitee to his Tax Leadership Team meetings as well as working closely with the Finance Change/Business Architecture teams to ensure tax change is aligned, governed and delivered effectively.
