Your mission

In the globalised market, employees are more than ever required to work cross-border or remotely to meet corporate and client's needs. It is important for global companies to develop a competitive international mobility programme, which is not only aligned with their business model strategy but also facilitates the transactional aspects of international mobility.

• Calculate Luxembourg taxes, taking into account the specific cross-border context in Luxembourg;
• Exchange with the PwC network abroad for the proper application of international conventions on taxation and social security;
• Participate in technical meetings and preparation of client presentations;
• Liaise with the Luxembourg tax administration;
• Participate in training sessions given to clients at the PwC Academy;
