The role
PwC's Alternative Investment Funds (AIF) team sits within our wider Financial Services Tax team. The team consists of tax, legal and regulatory 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.
Focusing on AIF means a lot of the work we do involves partnership entities.
We are looking for a Manager with strong compliance and advisory focused tax experience in both UK Income and Corporate Tax to join the team based in London.
As a Manager you will have the opportunity to develop your skills, drive your ambition and work with experienced Partners, Directors and Senior Managers 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:
1. 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.
2. 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.
3. You will lead advisory focused projects for clients within the AIF team by taking responsibility for researching and summarising technical analysis.
4. 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.
This role is for you if:
5. You are looking for practical experience of working within one or more of the asset classes (private equity, hedge funds, private credit).
6. You want a position where you will be a real driver with day to day deliverables and managing more junior team members.
7. You want to work with clients with larger in house tax teams and be a key part in supporting them with tax project work
8. You must possess an accounting or tax qualification (or an international equivalent).
What you’ll receive from us:
No matter where you may be in your career or personal life, our benefits are designed to add value and support, recognising and rewarding you fairly for your contributions.
We offer a range of benefits including empowered flexibility and a working week split between office, home and client site; private medical cover and 24/7 access to a qualified virtual GP; six volunteering days a year and much more.
