Job description

The UK member firms of Grant Thornton are part of a global network of independent audit, tax, and advisory firms, comprising over 76,000 professionals across more than 150 countries. We are a team of independent thinkers committed to quality, inclusion, and integrity. Globally, we aim to provide clients with a unique experience—personal, proactive, and agile—delivering expertise that goes beyond expectations. That's Grant Thornton.

Job Description:

Grant Thornton’s Alternative Funds Tax team offers tax advisory, transaction, and compliance services to alternative funds and their investment managers across all asset classes, including private equity, venture capital, private debt, hedge funds, real estate, infrastructure, and crypto assets.

The team’s client portfolio covers a broad spectrum of the asset management sector, serving traditional asset managers, financial institutions, private equity funds, alternative investors, real estate firms, wealth managers, hedge funds, UK pension funds, and global institutional investors. We combine technical expertise with a commercial approach to build trusted advisory relationships with our clients.

The Alternative Funds Tax team is part of the wider Financial Services Tax team, which provides tax services to clients in the Wealth and Asset Management, Banking and Capital Markets, and Insurance sectors.

We have ambitious growth plans and are seeking an experienced, enthusiastic Manager with strong UK tax compliance experience to join our London team. The role is compliance-focused but also involves working on domestic and international structuring, transactions, and advisory projects, alongside a varied portfolio of tax compliance and investor reporting engagements.

You will manage the full suite of tax compliance for asset managers and their funds, including trading corporates, partnerships, investor reporting, and more.

The role involves working closely with partners to develop strong client relationships within our current and target client base. The job is dynamic and varied, requiring an active, agile approach to different projects and teams.

We support flexible working arrangements, including reduced hours and job shares, to help balance your work and personal life.

Role Overview

As a Tax Manager for Alternative Funds, you will:

• Gain significant client exposure, working with UK and international asset managers to manage their tax compliance obligations;
• Facilitate smooth compliance processes, including financial management, billing, and debtor management;
• Manage client relationships and deliver solutions on advisory projects with senior team members;
• Take early responsibility for producing high-quality client deliverables and develop your understanding of alternative investment management and relevant tax issues;
• Support business development by identifying opportunities within existing clients and winning new work;
• Access training and development opportunities to broaden your technical and commercial skills, with opportunities to network internally and interact with senior leadership;
• Mentor junior team members, supporting their development and participating in coaching initiatives;
• Work within a high-performing, specialized financial services team that promotes your growth and success.

Candidate Profile

Joining as a Manager, the minimum requirements include a professional qualification (CTA / ACA / ACCA or equivalent) and confidence in managing a client portfolio.

Preferred skills include strong tax technical expertise, interest in asset management (experience with alternative asset classes is a plus but not essential), corporate and partnership tax compliance experience, project leadership skills, self-motivation, teamwork, excellent communication skills, and familiarity with relevant software such as Alpha tax, CCH Personal Tax, Power BI, and Microsoft Office. Experience in coaching and developing junior staff is also desirable.

Why Join Us?

We value diversity and foster an inclusive culture where everyone’s contributions are appreciated. Our open culture encourages interaction with leaders and supports bringing your whole self to work. We believe in work-life balance, offering flexible working options, and supporting your personal and professional growth.

Beyond the role, you’ll have opportunities to contribute to societal causes through secondments, charity work, and supporting entrepreneurs in developing regions. Our values—purposeful, curious, candid, and kind—guide everything we do.

We seek individuals eager to contribute, innovate, and exceed expectations, proud to do what’s right for our clients, colleagues, and communities. That’s how it should be.
