Job Description:

The KPMG financial services tax team is a fast-growing part of the KPMG tax practice. We are looking for excellent candidates who are seeking a dynamic and challenging working environment within a strong supportive leadership team.

As a result of growth in our business, we have a number of roles across our FS and Asset Management tax teams, which have a diverse client base spanning the FS sector — providing services to banks, custodians, brokers, asset managers, alternative investors, wealth and hedge asset managers, and global institutional investors such as pension funds and sovereign wealth funds.

For the right candidates, there are huge opportunities to be part of an expanding business and to progress quickly as the team grows. The work is interesting and diverse, involving cutting-edge developments and working with some of the best-known FS firms as well as mid-size and new market entrants, supporting their business as they grow rapidly.

The team is diverse and collaborative, with members based across London, Manchester, Bristol, and Edinburgh. We embraced hybrid and flexible working long before it became the norm! Our team has a mix of backgrounds, including those with careers entirely in professional services, and others from tax, legal, accounting, and regulatory backgrounds, as well as industry entrants with practical experience. We provide support, encouragement, and training to help you thrive at KPMG.

Successful candidates will have the opportunity to work across our FS and Asset Management tax teams. We welcome informal chats to discuss opportunities in more detail.

The Responsibilities:

• Developing and maintaining high technical knowledge across corporation tax and related areas.
• Supporting client relationships and projects, becoming a focal point for clients within asset management. This includes CT compliance, advisory work, tax audits, and product tax engagements such as UK investor reporting.
• Understanding clients' businesses and collaborating across KPMG to identify additional tax service opportunities.
• Developing and advising on innovative client propositions.
• Engaging in business development and proposal activities.
• Collaborating with teams across the UK and globally to deliver high-quality tax support.
• Participating in developing new client propositions, working with technology teams to create new solutions, taking these to market, and ensuring high service quality.
• Advocating for KPMG and the asset management tax team, contributing to business growth through high-quality service delivery.

The Person:

The successful candidates are likely to have some or all of the following skills:

• Deep technical ability in relation to corporation tax, supported by a relevant qualification or significant practical experience.
• Practical experience with corporation tax in a Financial Services context, either industry or professional services.
• Understanding of financial markets, participants, investors, and products.
• Excellent project management, delegation, coaching, and client-facing skills.
• Enthusiasm for emerging technologies and ability to integrate this with evolving tax regulations.
• Ability to leverage new tax developments to create client propositions.
• Enthusiasm, passion, resilience, and a continuous learning mindset.
