M&A Tax Manager

The Tax Services team is looking for an M&A Tax Manager to help develop the M&A tax practice and support transactional projects, including restructuring and refinancing.

Building a market-leading transaction services practice-incorporating M&A tax alongside M&A advisory, corporate finance, and valuations-is central to its ambitious expansion plans.

With no audit conflicts, the tax practice benefits from the firm's extensive client base and market reach. The role offers the opportunity to work with a diverse range of clients, including private investors, corporate groups, private equity houses, investment funds, and institutional investors, from mid-market, owner-managed businesses to large multinationals.

The successful candidate will manage M&A tax engagements and work closely with the M&A tax team to grow the firm's M&A tax business. Additionally, the role includes collaboration on broader transactional tax engagements, including restructurings, refinancing, and insolvency-related advisory, with a focus on business rescue, turnaround, and managed exits.

This position offers excellent exposure within the firm, providing opportunities to develop a strong internal network and advance in a dynamic environment.

Key Responsibilities

• Lead M&A tax due diligence and structuring engagements to deliver high-quality advisory services
• Review and prepare complex corporation tax returns for both solvent and insolvent companies
• Develop strong relationships with external and internal stakeholders to support and generate M&A tax opportunities
• Mentor and develop junior team members to foster a high-performance culture and collaborative team ethic
• Manage transaction tax projects related to restructurings and refinancing

Requirements

• Relevant M&A tax experience
• Strong UK corporate tax compliance knowledge, including experience with AlphaTax
• Excellent interpersonal and communication skills, with confidence in engaging clients and internal stakeholders
• A flexible and pragmatic approach to problem-solving, delivering practical solutions to client challenges
• Ability to thrive in a fast-paced, dynamic environment, working within a supportive and high-performing team
• ACA / CTA qualified or an equivalent professional tax qualification
