What will you be doing?

We are looking for remarkable candidates, ready for early assumption of responsibilities and close, regular contact with our dynamic partner group.

Do you enjoy tax technical research and solving complex technical queries? We are looking for a talented individual at Manager level, from either a corporate or mixed tax background, to be part of our national Central Technical Team. The ideal candidate will have very strong technical skills, drive and curiosity.

The Central Technical team works together with teams across the tax practice to collect, create, curate and communicate technical insight for the benefit of our teams and clients. This involves both carrying out original research and analysing knowledge submissions to produce and maintain technical resources to support our teams in delivering work to clients, assisting with complex technical queries, producing tax technical newsletters and monitoring important tax technical developments arising as a result of case law or the annual Budget and Finance Bill process, working closely with the separate Tax Policy team as required.

We are currently growing the team in order to increase our breadth of technical expertise within the central team, accelerate the expansion of our collection of detailed technical guidance, and ensure that our reference materials are current, maintained, and complement developments in technology including new AI tools.

Team members are based all over the UK so we are flexible on location and support hybrid and flexible working. While the role is not directly client-facing it is essential that the candidate has a keen appreciation of the issues facing clients.
