Purpose of the Role
Every transaction has tax implications, whether it is an acquisition, disposal, refinancing, restructuring or initial public offering. Our Transaction Tax Advisory team, one of three disciplines within International Tax and Transaction Services (ITTS), serves corporate and private capital markets clients in tax diligence, general transaction advisory, and overall transaction project management. Our integrated global approach means we deliver coordinated advice, helping clients make informed decisions and navigate the tax implications of their transactions aligning with the long-term strategy.
The Opportunity
As an ITTS Manager specialising in Transaction Tax Advisory, you will be at the heart of client centricity delivery.
Based in Johannesburg but working nationally, you will be heavily involved at all stages of the project life cycle, making this a high-profile opportunity to take on a wide range of responsibilities and diversify your skills and experience. It is all about translating information from a variety of sources into quantitative and qualitative analyses to inform and advise our clients. That will include building relationships with clients in a spectrum of industries and getting to know their unique needs and aspirations to provide tailored global services.
Key Responsibilities
You are required to demonstrate an understanding of increasingly complex tax concepts and effectively apply your tax knowledge to client situations, developing and delivering innovative tax planning ideas with timely, responsive services and work products that meet and/or exceed client expectations. You will conduct tax due diligence reviews, engage in structuring engagements, accurately analyse information and prepare quality, practical and creative approaches tailored to a client’s tax and economic situation, arriving at appropriate conclusions.
