The service covers direct and indirect taxation, including corporation tax, VAT, payroll and employment taxes, stamp taxes and other tax matters. The adviser will provide clear, practical guidance to help the group understand its tax affairs, identify tax-efficiency opportunities and meet regulatory and legal obligations. Duties include preparing corporation tax computations for group entities and supporting disclosures to HMRC. The requirement also includes ad hoc tax projects commissioned at Thirteen’s cost. This is a professional tax consultancy services opportunity (CPV 79221000) for a large housing provider managing homes and support services across the North East of England and Yorkshire, headquartered in Middlesbrough. The process has reached tender: Thirteen invited offers through an open procedure. Bids had to be submitted electronically or by the stated submission route by 21 September 2026 at 17:00. The planned award decision date was 9 October 2026. The contract is valued at £180,000 gross in the procurement record; the associated lot is recorded as 180,000 AED gross, so bidders should verify the applicable currency in the tender documents. The contract period is 1 December 2026 to 30 November 2028, with two possible 24-month extensions, allowing continuation until 30 November 2032. Evaluation is weighted 85% quality and 15% price. Payment terms are 30 days. English is the submission language. This opportunity suits tax advisory firms able to act as a trusted retained adviser for a housing group and its subsidiary entities. Relevant capability includes corporation tax, VAT, payroll and employment taxes, stamp taxes and wider tax advice, supported by the ability to handle both routine compliance and changing requirements. Suppliers should be able to prepare corporation tax computations across group entities, support regulatory and legal compliance, identify tax-efficiency opportunities and assist with disclosures to HMRC. The requirement also favours firms that can explain complex tax matters clearly to non-specialists and respond to ad hoc projects. Experience of managing scope changes arising from new projects or legislative developments would be commercially relevant. ## Notice At Thirteen, we've been working to help improve the lives of people in our neighbourhoods for years.
