The opportunity

The team is made up of core professionals in the UK supported by a strong EMEIA and global tax network, focusing on operational taxes.

  • An ability to work to tight deal deadlines
  • Excellent relationship management skills with the ability to manage client expectations
  • Excellent written and oral English communication skills

  • Significant operational tax experience strong tax technical skills
  • Strong client relationship management skills with ability to develop quality outputs to clients Ideally, you will also have
  • Project management experience
  • experience working alongside technology specialists to optimise and automate tax-related procedures.

What we look for You will be a driven tax professional and will proactively maintain your strong technical knowledge so that you can better advise our clients.

The types of project you'll contribute towards may include:

  • Managing a multi-jurisdiction project to determine how certain financial transactions or income flows should be taxed;
  • Providing strategic advice as to how a financial intermediary should organise themselves to be compliant with their operational tax obligations - such projects may include advice on target operating models, benchmarking, and technology solutions
  • Working with clients to meet their compliance and reporting obligations under such tax transparency and information exchange regimes as FATCA and CRS, MDR, CESOP and Digital Platform reporting (DAC7);
  • Advising clients on the application of the Qualified Intermediary ("QI") regime, including the undertaking of QI health checks, periodic reviews and the provision of ad hoc advice; What working at EY offers We offer a competitive remuneration package.
