FSO Tax – Senior

Job Description

Our working world is rapidly evolving, and with that evolution comes unprecedented opportunities for businesses to adapt, expand, grow and transform. EYs tax practice combines agility, diverse thought, tax technical depth and the power of technology and analytics to provide exceptional value to clients. In a rapidly-changing business and tax environment, we develop dynamic leaders who, through innovative thinking and an entrepreneurial spirit, make a positive impact on the working world as trusted business advisors.

Our Financial Services Organisation (FSO) is a unique, industry focused practice and the only one of its kind in a Big 4 firm. Tax is at the heart of our market offering. As a Tax Senior you will be part of this story and will have responsibility for advising our high profile clients as they navigate the sea of international tax change, all the while building your profile as a trusted business advisor.

The opportunity

Tax is a fast paced and evolving discipline, and with the rapid growth in services clients require, and our business expanding to support that, we are looking for people who can operate across a wide range of areas. Working in tax at EY is about being a trusted business advisor to your clients, understanding and meeting their needs in a way that is right for them.

You’ll be given the opportunity to be a core member of our team, meeting with high profile clients to understand and help shape their agenda. You will be at the forefront of managing both the impact of global tax law change, and also how tax is delivered as a service offering to clients, supported by cutting edge analytics, automation and robotics.

Your key responsibilities

Your core focus will be on delivering on a diverse portfolio of clients, working together with a multi-disciplinary internal team to provide the best possible service. You’ll be empowered to take ownership of the client relationships, acting as the face of EY as you build your personal profile with them. You will also shape the development of junior staff, facilitating their technical and practical experience to ensure they get exposure to a broad range of opportunities as they grow their careers.

• Evolving technical, interpersonal and client relationship skills.
• Desire to advance in building client relationships and business development activities.

To qualify for the role you should be

• Qualified or partially qualified in ACA (or equivalent), law and/or Tax; or
• AITI qualified or equivalent qualification in a Commonwealth country (such as Australia, Canada, New Zealand, Singapore, South Africa, UK);
• Working or have worked in a tax role either in practice or industry
• Technically strong and keen to develop further.

What we look for

The ideal candidate is someone who is self-motivated and ambitious, balanced with the ability to work effectively as part of a team on a day to day basis. They must be able to manage competing projects, deadlines and client needs, demonstrating superior organisational skills and the ability to communicate effectively.

We are looking for someone who is commercially aware, and who crucially can build strong and lasting relationships, both internally and externally, based on doing the right thing.
