• Due Diligence: Leading tax due diligence assignments for both buy-side and sell-side transactions, identifying key tax risks and opportunities.
• Client Relationship Management: Building and nurturing strong relationships with existing clients, understanding their commercial objectives, and identifying opportunities to provide value-added tax solutions.
• Business Development: Actively participating in business development initiatives, identifying new client opportunities, preparing proposals, and contributing to the growth of the firm's transactions tax offering.
• Team Leadership & Mentoring: Managing, mentoring, and developing junior tax professionals, fostering a culture of excellence and continuous learning within the team.
• Technical Excellence: Staying abreast of changes in tax legislation and market trends, ensuring the firm's advice remains cutting-edge and compliant.

• Technical Prowess: Deep technical knowledge of UK corporate tax, capital gains tax, and stamp duty implications related to corporate transactions. Experience with international tax aspects of cross-border transactions would be advantageous.
• Commercial Acumen: A strong understanding of commercial drivers behind transactions and the ability to translate complex tax legislation into practical, commercially sound advice.
• Client-Facing Skills: Exceptional communication, interpersonal, and presentation skills, with the ability to build rapport and influence at all levels.
• Leadership & Management: Proven ability to lead and motivate teams, delegate effectively, and manage multiple projects concurrently.
• Business Development: A demonstrable track record of contributing to business development activities and a genuine desire to grow a client portfolio.
• Proactive & Solutions-Oriented: A proactive approach to problem-solving, with a focus on delivering innovative and effective solutions for clients.
