About Tax Advisory at FTIWe are an independent expert led tax practice that sits within the Corporate Finance practice of FTI Consulting. We provide corporate business tax advisory services to leading private equity and infrastructure fund houses, FTSE 100/listed groups, international funds and major corporations across a broad suite of tax services and technical specialisms. We have definitive expertise across many areas of tax and take pride in taking a pragmatic and commercial approach to advising clients.

Our senior management team members are leaders in their field, and includes tax, accounting, legal, valuations, and technology experts, and economists.

About the Role We are seeking an experienced proactive and market facing Managing Director in our Tax Advisory practice, based in London, with a specific focus on Corporate Taxes (both advisory and compliance / reporting engagements).The purpose of the role is to help lead and develop our Corporate Tax team, be responsible for and manage a portfolio of large & complex clients and work closely with our other tax specialist teams across a variety of tax advisory and transaction projects.

Our clients are a mix of both International and Domestic businesses, with a large and/or complex UK footprint, but typically with little or no in-house UK tax expertise, therefore requiring full tax support from the FTI tax team, often working closely with or as part of the in-house finance team.

Our engagements are typically anchored around the provision of corporate tax compliance and reporting support, but will also involve group tax planning & reorganisations, tax advice on financing, M&A transaction support, cross-border tax advisory, tax risk management (such as SAO) and dealing with HMRC. We often lead the relationships and planning on our clients and will manage the support from our other tax specialist colleagues such as Transfer Pricing, Capital Allowances, R&D, Real Estate, VAT, Employment Taxes and Share Schemes.

Our clients operate across a wide range of industries and sectors. Currently, about a third of our portfolio are Real Estate clients and the role may involve working closely with our RE Transactions team to provide post-transaction ongoing tax advisory and compliance support to those clients.
