Job Description & Summary
PwC's Alternative Investment Funds (AIF) team sits within our wider Financial Services Tax team. The team consists of specialists focusing on assisting alternative investment fund managers with a range of services across their business, covering the manager, the key people, the funds, investors and investments.
Whilst the team is UK based, the nature of the AIF industry means that a large amount of our work is international meaning there are many opportunities to work with the wider PwC AIF network on both outbound and inbound clients and opportunities to travel to the US are expected.
We are looking for a Manager with strong advisory and compliance focused tax experience to primarily focus on Hedge Fund and inbound clients, from start-ups all the way through to global multi-PM and multi strategy managers.
As a Manager you will have the opportunity to develop your skills, drive your ambition and work with experienced Partners and Directors across the team. The team will provide you with the opportunity to put into practice your tax technical skills in a stimulating and challenging environment.
What your days will look like:
- The Alternative Investment Funds industry is dynamic, technically demanding and creative and offers opportunities to work on major transactions, international structuring, and a range of day-to-day UK tax matters
- You will lead advisory focused projects for clients within the AIF team by taking responsibility for researching and summarising technical analysis
- You will be responsible for helping to manage the team to provide excellent advisory services to globally situated clients. You will need to understand the business and transactions undertaken by clients to enable you to provide opportunities to those clients at the right time
- You will be responsible for liaising with the compliance centre for a portfolio of clients by participating in client meetings, ensuring timetable adherence, supporting the compliance team with any tax analysis before undertaking a technical review of the work prepared
Reasons to use Rodeo
I’m in my final year doing Economics and I don’t know whether to apply for grad schemes now or do a masters first. What do you think?
Honest answer — it depends on where you want to end up. A lot of top grad schemes (Big 4, civil service, banking) don’t need a masters. Let’s look at the ones you’d be competitive for now, and we can decide if a masters actually adds anything.
Also worth knowing: most autumn 2026 applications are open now. Timing matters more than you think.
Start with a chat, not a search bar
Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
