Job Description & Summary

About the Role :

The Deals Tax team at PwC collaborates with the Deals practice to advise on the tax implications of transactions, including Mergers & Acquisitions, Business Recovery Services, and Real Estate. As part of the Private Equity Portfolio Tax team, a leading group within PwC’s Deals Tax network, the team supports Private Equity-backed businesses throughout the deal lifecycle.

Operating nationally and internationally, the team offers diverse opportunities for career development. Candidates with a strong UK corporate tax background and awareness of other taxes are preferred. Experience in transactions or the Private Equity market is desirable, with full training and support provided.

What you days will look like:

  • Manage and mentor a growing team while providing bespoke tax advisory services to PE portfolio company clients, covering a wide range of areas including international tax and deal cycle support.
  • Build and maintain strong relationships with clients and junior team members, delivering proactive, innovative, and commercial tax services.
  • Collaborate with specialists from other tax areas and the wider network, particularly in transaction services and international teams, to provide comprehensive solutions.
  • Actively seek and develop business opportunities, identifying and progressing potential engagements with new and existing clients.
  • Continuously develop and share technical knowledge and business acumen, staying updated with industry insights to address and solve complex technical challenges for clients.

This role is for you if :

  • Possess a Chartered Accountant (ACCA, ICAEW, ICAS) or Chartered Tax Advisor (ATT, CTA) qualification, or international equivalent, with strong UK corporate tax skills and awareness of other taxes.
  • Some transaction experience is desirable but not essential, as full training and support are provided; a flexible approach to working with multiple client and transaction teams simultaneously.
  • Proven ability to build and maintain internal and external relationships and networks, with developed communication skills for negotiating and influencing others.
  • Strong analytical, project management, and report writing skills, including experience in project managing and delegating work within a team.
  • Commitment to self-development and the development of others, applying tax technical knowledge and insights in a commercial environment.

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.
