More than you expected

Grant Thornton UK LLP is part of a global network of independent audit, tax and advisory firms, made up of some 73,000 people in over 150 countries. We're a team of independent thinkers who put quality, inclusion and integrity first. All around the world we bring a different experience to our clients. A better experience. One that delivers the expertise they need in a way that goes beyond. Personal, proactive, and agile. That's Grant Thornton.

Job Description:

Grant Thornton’s Alternative Funds Tax team provides tax advisory, transactions and compliance services to alternative funds and their investment managers across all asset classes including private equity, venture capital, private debt, hedge funds, real estate, infrastructure and crypto assets.

The team’s client portfolio spans the breadth of the asset management sector, serving traditional asset managers, financial services institutions, private equity funds, alternative investors, the real estate sector, wealth managers, hedge funds, UK pension funds, and global institutional investors. We combine technical expertise with a commercial approach, to build a strong trusted adviser relationship with our clients.

The Alternative Funds Tax team sits as part of the wider Financial Services Tax team, which provides tax services to a variety of clients in the Financial Services market across Wealth and Asset Management; Banking and Capital Markets; and Insurance sectors.

We have ambitious growth plans and are looking for an experienced, enthusiastic Manager with strong UK tax compliance experience to join our team in London. The role is compliance-focused but given the dynamic nature of the alternative funds industry, the role will give you the opportunity to work on domestic and international structuring, transactions and advisory projects, in addition to a varied portfolio of tax compliance and investor reporting engagements.

You will be responsible for managing the full suite of tax compliance for asset managers and the funds they manage, including trading corporates, trading partnerships, investment partnerships, investor reporting and more.

Part of the role will focus on working alongside the partner group in building strong client relationships within the current and target client base. Working in practice means that the job is, by its nature, different every day and we want someone who is actively looking for this challenge. An agile approach to working with different projects and people is therefore essential.

We’re happy to talk flexible working and consider reduced hours and job shares, we’ll support you to balance your work and life.

A look into the role

As an Alternative Funds Tax Manager, you will:

  • be given significant exposure to clients, working alongside UK and international asset managers to manage their tax compliance obligations;
  • facilitate a smooth compliance process for clients, including operational matters such as financial management responsibilities, billing and debtor management;
  • manage client relationships and, together with the senior team, deliver solutions on standalone advisory projects;
  • be given early responsibility for producing high quality client deliverables whilst developing your commercial understanding of alternative investment management and the tax issues relevant to the sector;
  • support business development, which is fundamental to our success. You’ll be involved in growing the business whether that’s through identifying opportunities on existing clients by developing the client relationship or winning new work;
  • have access to the firm’s training and development opportunities to broaden your technical and commercial skillsets. You’ll have the opportunity to network internally and are afforded a great deal of access to our Partner and Director team;
  • be a role model for junior members of the team, supporting and championing their development and being involved in our coaching and upskilling efforts;
  • work within a high performing, specialist financial services team that will support your development and enable you to thrive.

Knowing you’re right for us

Joining us as a Manager, the minimum criteria you’ll need is a professional qualification (CTA / ACA / ACCA or equivalent), and to be confident managing a portfolio of clients.

It would be great if you also had some of the following skills, but don’t worry if you don’t tick every box, we’ll help you develop along the way.

  • Strong tax technical skills and an interest in the asset management sector (previous experience of working with one of the alternative asset classes (private equity, venture capital, private credit etc.) is preferred but is not essential).
  • Mix of corporate and partnership tax compliance experience.
  • A track record of leading projects, with a focus on accountability, high quality and timely delivery.
  • Self-motivated and strong team player.
  • Excellent interpersonal skills are required in addition to strong oral and written communication skills.
  • Familiarity with Alpha tax, CCH personal tax, Power BI, Microsoft Office, and other relevant software.
  • Experience of coaching and developing more junior team members.

Knowing we’re right for you

Embracing uniqueness, the culture at Grant Thornton thrives on the contributions of all our people, we never settle for what is easy, we look beyond to deliver the right thing, for everyone. Building an inclusive culture, where we value difference and respect our colleagues helps our people to perform at the best of their ability and realise their potential.

Our open and accessible culture means you’ll interact with leaders who are interested in you and everything you bring to our firm. The things that set you apart, we value them. That’s why we give you the freedom to bring your whole self to work and pursue your passions inside and outside of work.

Beyond the job

Life is more than work. The things you do, and the people you’re with outside of work matter, that’s why we’re happy to look at flexible working options for all our roles, and we’ll always do our best to keep your work and life in balance.

The impact you can make here will go far beyond your day job. From secondments, to fundraising for local charities, or investing in entrepreneurs in the developing world, you’ll be giving back to society. It’s that drive to do the right thing that runs through our every move, grounded in our firm’s values – purposefully driven, actively curious and candid but kind.

We’re looking for people who want to contribute, spark fresh ideas and go beyond expectations. People who want to be able to proudly do what’s right, for the firm, our clients, our people and themselves. It’s how it should be.
