Associate - Tax (3+ years’ PQE)
Fully Remote | UK-Wide (Regional Focus)
The Opportunity:
We are working with a highly regarded specialist tax advisory firm looking to hire an Associate to join their growing team. This is a niche, high-calibre team made up of lawyers who have trained and worked at leading City and national firms. The firm operates with the agility of a boutique, while delivering work typically associated with much larger practices. The role offers exposure to complex, high-value transactional and advisory work, particularly across private equity, M&A, and corporate structuring.
The Role:
You will work closely with senior tax specialists on a broad range of matters, including:
* Tax advice on M&A, private equity and corporate transactions
* Drafting and negotiating tax covenants and warranties on live deals
* Advising on reorganisations, demergers and business structuring
* Supporting on employee share incentives (EMI, CSOP, growth shares)
* Advising on SEIS/EIS investments and tax-efficient structures
* Property tax matters including SDLT, VAT and structuring
* The team is heavily involved in live transactions and regularly works alongside corporate lawyers, law firms and accountancy firms to deliver seamless, commercially focused advice.
What They’re Looking For:
* Qualified Solicitor with 3+ years’ PQE
* Strong academic background and excellent training
* Experience in transactional / corporate tax
* Exposure to areas such as M&A, share incentives, or structuring work
* Technically strong with the ability to deliver clear, practical advice
* Comfortable working in a fully remote, collaborative environment
Why This Role Stands Out:
* Opportunity to work on high-quality, complex transactions typically seen at top firms
* A specialist tax-only environment, offering deeper technical exposure
* Regularly advising law firms, accountancy firms and high-growth businesses
* A team known for delivering commercial, pragmatic and user-friendly advice
* Broad exposure across advisory work, rather than being siloed
Culture & Working Style
* Fully remote
* Small, close-knit team with a strong collaborative culture
* High level of responsibility and direct exposure to senior lawyers and clients
* Weekly team touchpoints and ongoing technical training
Salary & Benefits
* Competitive salary aligned with experience
* Discretionary bonus with strong upside
* Pension
* Private healthcare
* Death in service
