The opportunity

Join our growing Indirect Tax team and help some of Australia's leading organisations navigate an increasingly complex tax landscape. We are seeking Stamp Duty Specialists at all levels of expertise, from Senior Consultants and Managers through to Senior Managers and Directors, to join our team.

Whether you're looking to deepen your technical expertise, broaden your leadership responsibilities or take the next step in your career, you'll have the opportunity to work on some of Australia's most significant transactions and tax advisory engagements.

Our Indirect Tax team is at the forefront of emerging tax developments and market-leading transactions, helping clients navigate complexity, manage risk and identify opportunities across a broad range of industries. This is an opportunity to work on high-profile and complex matters while collaborating with some of EY's leading tax professionals.

You'll work directly with clients to solve today's challenges while preparing for tomorrow's opportunities, translating technical expertise into practical commercial outcomes. Supported by experienced leaders, you'll have the autonomy to make an impact, build deep technical and commercial expertise, and shape your career through tailored learning, mentoring and leadership development opportunities.
