  • Attending client meetings and calls, including playing an active role in the discussion of tax technical topics.

The successful candidate will be able to demonstrate all of the following attributes:

  • Qualified as a Chartered Accountant (CA or ACA), Chartered Tax Advisor or solicitor (or international equivalent).
  • Career drive to develop a specialism in Hedge Fund taxation and to be part of a fast-growing, high-performing Alternatives tax team.
  • Positive approach to personal development and motivation for progression to Manager grade and beyond, as your experience and knowledge develops.
  • Track record of delivering high-quality corporate tax advisory and compliance services to clients. Experience in the Hedge Fund or Alternative Investment Funds sector is preferred, but this is not essential.
  • Ability to manage competing deadlines by planning ahead and prioritising, and communicating effectively with colleagues and clients, including when under pressure.
  • Strong level of UK corporation tax knowledge and the ability to communicate complex rules and ideas in a simple way, both verbally and in writing.
