Job Description:

The Role

KPMG’s Energy and Natural Resources (“ENR”) tax practice covers Oil and Gas, Mining, Power and Utilities (including renewables) and Chemicals. Our ENR practice is growing significantly due to the energy transition and fiscal changes.

Our clients include major global ENR companies, both UK-based and international. Our work spans deal advisory, international and domestic tax advice. A successful candidate will have opportunities to work across these areas.

Deal advisory services include support for transactions such as vendor assistance, refinancing, due diligence, and structuring. We help clients understand tax issues and structure transactions to maximize value, often across multiple countries and tax regimes.

Tax advisory work involves advising on jurisdiction entry, new business development, reorganizations, refinancing, leasing, and impacts of windfall taxes and global fiscal reforms like BEPS 2.0 Pillar 2.

Key Responsibilities

• Work with Partners and Directors on complex engagements to deliver high-quality advice
• Support in business development activities, including proposals and pitches
• Develop and maintain strong client relationships
• Act as a main point of contact for clients, legal advisers, and internal teams
• Coach colleagues, collaborate with peers, and pursue continuous learning
• Prepare and review detailed technical tax advice on UK and international issues
• Analyze tax documents/data, identify key issues, and communicate their commercial impact
• Collaborate with UK and overseas tax specialists, critically evaluate their input
• Stay updated on UK and OECD tax developments
• Understand financial models from a tax perspective
• Contribute to thought leadership initiatives

The Person

• Qualified CTA, ACA/CA, or equivalent
• Enthusiastic with a strong interest in transactions
• Experience in the ENR sector is a plus, but candidates with a keen interest and willingness to learn will be considered
• Good interpersonal, oral, and written communication skills
• Solid UK corporate tax knowledge
• Strong analytical skills, curious, and problem-solving mindset
• Ability to work in a team and manage workload effectively
• Proficient in Excel and PowerPoint

We support flexible working arrangements to help balance work and personal life. During recruitment, we can connect you with colleagues who work flexibly to share their experiences.
