Location: Flexible throughout the UK in one of our hubs.

Salary: Up to £120k.

HM Revenue and Customs (HMRC) is the UK’s tax and customs authority. We’re one of the largest organisations in the country, with more than 60,000 employees, and we collected £875.9 billion in tax receipts in 2024-25.

Our work touches the lives of almost everyone in the country. The tax revenue we generate is spent by government on the schools, NHS, police and other essential services we all rely on.

Our vision is to be a trusted, modern, tax and customs department – one that’s here to support customers and works to close the tax gap. 

We’re investing in our technology, our people and their skills to make it as easy as possible for customers to pay the right tax from the outset: expanding and improving our digital services, enhancing customer experience and fixing problems at source, so we can focus our interventions where they make the biggest difference.

The Director of the Tax, Customs and Compliance Academy (TCCA) remit spans the whole of HMRC, supporting over 15,000 tax professionals and engaging colleagues across all disciplines to set and deliver an ambitious strategy for HMRC’s tax profession. The TCCA is the single gateway for all tax, customs and compliance learning. You will be critical in achieving HMRC’s strategic objectives and reinvigorating the tax profession. As Director of TCCA, a circa 2,500 strong academy, you will be at the forefront of HMRC’s transformation and the academy’s evolution. This role is central to the department’s ambition to modernise the tax and customs system and close the tax gap. 

You will play a key role in HMRC’s senior leadership team, influencing the direction of one of the UK’s most important public institutions through setting the Tax Professionalism strategy and ensuring its delivery to meet HMRC’s strategic objectives.

This is a rare opportunity for an experienced senior leader to make a lasting impact at a national level.
