• Research and assistance with tax consulting advice (such as tax consolidation, tax treaties, hybrid mismatches, controlled foreign companies, withholding taxes, thin capitalisation, permanent establishments, Division 40, etc.)

• Assist clients with ATO reviews, governance matters and audits

• Working with the ATO to obtain rulings for clients

• Assistance with preparation of tax effect calculations

Skills and experience

• University degree in a related discipline, such as Accounting / Finance, Business / Commerce, Legal and / or relevant professional qualification(s)

• Australian corporate tax experience within a professional services environment

• Understanding of basic tax effect accounting calculations

• Analytical skills and an inquisitive mindset, with a desire to deeply understand clients' businesses, challenges and confident in applying knowledge to routine matters

• Demonstrable strong work ethic and commitment to excellent client service

If you're interested in this role but don't feel that you match every single one of our requirements, we would still love to hear from you and explore the unique skillset and attributes that you can bring to the team.
