1. Proactively manage and deliver transfer pricing projects on technical input, resource requirements, and costs, reporting into the transfer pricing director.
2. Have broad practical and theoretical transfer pricing experience across sectors and industries, including advising and implementing various transfer pricing methods. Financial services experience is not required as we provide training.
3. Deliver practical and robust transfer pricing advice and manage TP design and documentation projects for sign-off by the transfer pricing director.
4. Advise on intellectual property transactions, including DEMPE analysis, business restructuring, and operational transfer pricing solutions.
5. Collaborate with the transfer pricing director and tax partners to grow our service line and build our pipeline of opportunities.
6. Assist with proposals, budgets, and developing new work streams within our regions, including audit of transfer pricing.
7. Project manage the delivery of transfer pricing solutions, including multi-territory projects.
8. Build relationships with wider client service teams in your region.

We are committed to developing a work portfolio that suits individual needs, working with your line manager to tailor your work.
