Director – Private Capital Transactions Tax (Open to flexible working)
Tax works with clients of all sizes across various industries, collaborating closely with a strong global network of transaction tax teams. In this dynamic environment, individuals apply their skills to diverse transactions. With an entrepreneurial spirit, there is flexibility to develop your career in specific sectors or across the M&A landscape.
The Private Capital Transactions tax team works with major private equity clients and focuses on rapidly developing areas of the deals market. Our agility and speed to market have driven growth, even during downturns. To capitalize on current market opportunities, we seek to recruit top talent.
The Opportunity
