About this role
“We’re setting out to reshape the future of tax advisory - one that’s better for clients, and better for advisers.”
WTS UK is a new non-audit tax advisory firm offering the full range of services to large and listed businesses.
We take a fresh approach to tax advisory - unafraid to offer bold perspectives on complex issues. We provide clear, actionable advice, demonstrating what’s possible when a firm is purpose-built for today’s environment.
Modern, focused, and powered by senior expertise, we embed AI into our ways of working to sharpen insight and enhance client service.
We are proud to be part of WTS, headquartered in Munich, and connected through WTS Global, a network spanning 100 countries. We combine international reach with entrepreneurial agility. We are seeking a Transaction Tax Assistant Manager / Senior Consultant to join our growing team. You will advise smaller family run businesses to large and listed as well as private equity clients, on the tax aspects of acquisitions, disposals, restructurings and refinancings.
The role will involve supporting tax due diligence projects, identifying and quantifying tax risks, assisting with transaction structuring and providing commercially focused advice throughout the deal lifecycle. You will work closely with senior colleagues, clients and international teams across the WTS Global network on a range of domestic and cross-border transactions.
This is an opportunity to play a meaningful role in a growing transactions tax practice, working alongside senior leaders and high-profile clients while developing your career in a modern, entrepreneurial and conflict-free advisory firm.
