This role is for you if:

• You have a good understanding of the UK legislative framework for transfer pricing, including Diverted Profits Tax (DPT), as well as a general sense of the global transfer pricing regulatory landscape
• You have demonstrated ability to manage multiple projects, deliver results, and support team members' growth and development
• You have practical experience in preparing and reviewing CbCR and a good understanding of the OECD CbCR guidelines
• You have a strong knowledge of management and financial reporting systems, including interconnections with transfer pricing and tax processes
• You have the ability to translate complex transfer pricing regulations into actionable process improvements coupled with proven experience in tax or finance process design and implementation
• You possess strong interpersonal and communication skills to work effectively with technical and non-technical audiences
• Professionally qualified (ACA / ACCA / CIMA or international equivalent) would be preferred

What you'll receive from us:

No matter where you may be in your career or personal life, our benefits are designed to add value and support, recognising and rewarding you fairly for your contributions.

We offer a range of benefits including empowered flexibility and a working week split between office, home and client site; private medical cover and 24/7 access to a qualified virtual GP; six volunteering days a year and much more.
