M&A Tax Manager

M&A Tax Manager London £65,000-£77,000

Looking to take your tax career further into M&A and transactions?
I'm working with an established and growing accountancy practice in London that is looking to strengthen its tax advisory offering with an experienced M&A Tax Manager.
This is an excellent opportunity for someone with a strong corporate tax background who wants to build on their transaction experience and work on a broad range of interesting deals.
You'll work closely with Partners and Directors, advising shareholders, management teams, investors and businesses throughout the transaction lifecycle.

The role

You'll be involved across a varied range of M&A tax assignments, including:

• Advising on the tax implications of acquisitions, disposals and reorganisations
• Supporting clients throughout the transaction lifecycle
• Undertaking tax due diligence for both buy-side and sell-side transactions
• Identifying key tax risks and opportunities within transactions
• Supporting transaction structuring and tax planning
• Working closely with corporate finance, legal and other professional advisers
• Preparing and reviewing tax analysis and transaction reports
• Advising entrepreneurial businesses, shareholders and institutional investors
• Working alongside Partners and Directors on complex and high-value transactions
• Building strong relationships with clients and becoming a trusted adviser
• Supporting business development and identifying opportunities with existing and prospective clients
• Coaching and developing more junior members of the team

What they're looking for

You don't need to tick every box, but ideally you'll have:

• Strong UK corporate tax experience
• Experience within a professional services or accountancy environment
• Previous exposure to M&A tax, transaction tax or tax due diligence
• A strong understanding of corporate tax legislation
• Experience working on transactions and advising clients
