No noise. No "maybe this fits." Just roles with a clear explanation of why they're right — and where to focus when applying.
Our clients are a mix of both International and Domestic businesses, with a large and/or complex UK footprint, but typically with little or no in-house UK tax expertise, therefore requiring full tax support from the FTI tax team, often working closely with or as part of the in-house finance team.
Our engagements are typically anchored around the provision of corporate tax compliance and reporting support, but will also involve group tax planning & reorganisations, tax advice on financing, M&A transaction support, cross-border tax advisory, tax risk management (such as SAO) and dealing with HMRC. We often lead the relationships and planning on our clients and will manage the support from our other tax specialist colleagues such as Transfer Pricing, Capital Allowances, R&D, Real Estate, VAT, Employment Taxes and Share Schemes.
Our clients operate across a wide range of industries and sectors. Currently, about a third of our portfolio are Real Estate clients and the role may involve working closely with our RE Transactions team to provide post-transaction ongoing tax advisory and compliance support to those clients.
Key Responsibilities
- Help lead and develop the Corporate Tax team and be part of the wider Tax Senior Leadership
- Manage and develop large client relationships
- Lead on delivery of Corporate Tax projects and engagements working closely with other tax specialist teams to provide full support on client relationships
