• Monitor and stay abreast of international tax developments (e.g., OECD guidelines, updated TP Guidelines) and provide timely advisory on their implications to clients.
• Support and represent clients—together with the Transfer Pricing Director—in tax audits, queries, and negotiations with tax authorities related to transfer pricing matters.
• Identify opportunities for value creation through tax‑efficient structures, intercompany pricing mechanisms, and operational optimizations.
• Contribute to business development by preparing proposals, participating in client pitches, and sharing knowledge through internal and external initiatives.

• A competitive remuneration package based on experience and performance.
• Opportunities to lead strategic projects and shape client transfer pricing policies across diverse industries.
• Exposure to a broad client portfolio, including local SMEs, multinational groups, and public‑listed companies.
• A collaborative and forward‑thinking work culture that encourages innovation, ownership, and continuous improvement.
