- Leading major real estate tax engagements for large and multinational real estate businesses and investors, presenting advice directly to CFOs and Tax Directors
- Reviewing and resolving the most complex technical matters, acting as the deepest technical reference point in real estate tax
- Growing and leading major client relationships across the real estate sector, identifying opportunities and building your network in the market

- Taking ownership of portfolio management, including resource utilisation and recovery across your client base
- Collaborating with colleagues across jurisdictions within the WTS Global network on cross-border real estate projects, and with our Indirect Tax team on VAT matters affecting your clients
- Leading pitches and helping win new opportunities for the firm
- Coaching and developing Senior Managers, and building succession plans within your team
- Championing our technology-enabled ways of working, using AI and digital tools to enhance delivery across your business area
- Contributing to business unit leadership, potentially leading the real estate tax service line, sector, or region
- CTA, ACA, ACCA, CA or equivalent professional qualification – or qualified by experience
- Extensive experience in real estate tax, gained in practice or industry
- Deep technical expertise in SDLT, capital allowances and real estate structuring, with a track record of resolving complex matters
- Commercial mindset with the ability to translate complex technical issues into clear, practical advice for senior stakeholders
- Strong written and verbal communication skills, including presenting to CFOs and other senior client contacts
- Experience leading major client relationships, winning new business, and developing Senior Managers
- A collaborative, highly credible mindset aligned with our culture
- Work in a bureaucracy-free, pure advisory environment
- Build something new in a high-growth firm
