McKinsey & Company

Do you want to work on complex and pressing challenges—the kind that bring together curious, ambitious, and determined leaders who strive to become better every day? If this sounds like you, you’ve come to the right place.

Your Impact

You will provide strategic tax counsel by supporting firm leadership and individual transferees on tax matters to enhance a high-value international mobility program. You will offer proactive, executive-level tax support for strategic Partner moves, ensuring a comprehensive global overview of their tax position.

In terms of mobility operationalization, you will communicate the tax implications of international mobility to transferees and assist them with their transition into new tax systems. This will involve explaining complex tax details in an understandable manner to ensure smooth transitions.

You will collaborate and integrate seamlessly with other firm functions, such as Mobility, Benefits, Payroll, Accounting and Finance, Legal, and Human Resources, as well as with external advisors. Working closely with both sending and receiving offices, you will ensure smooth transitions for all parties involved. Additionally, you will collaborate effectively within the Tax Group to provide outstanding tax support to Partners and colleagues.

Your role will also involve project and stakeholder management. You will partner with Tax Directors and Senior Managers on Partner mobility transfers and global/regional mobility projects. Managing day-to-day interactions with Non-Partner transfers and key stakeholders in local offices and firm functions will be crucial to addressing the complexities of Partner and Non-Partner mobility.

You will join our Tax Group as a Transferee Tax Manager. The Transferee Tax Group oversees the firm’s mobility taxes and provides tax advice for all cross-border activities, including international business travel, remote work, and Partner and Non-Partner mobility.

You will collaborate with various stakeholders within the firm to deliver exceptional tax support and services to our Partners and colleagues.
