    Description

    The role

    We are currently recruiting for a Senior Associate to join DLA Piper's global Tax Group, to be based in either Leeds or Manchester.

    The team works with multinational companies to address the complex challenges of international commerce and business operations as well as manage and resolve tax disputes.

    Our global Tax Group assists clients in structuring a wide range of transactions, from private equity deals to corporate acquisitions and disposals. We provide these international tax services while at the same time offering clients the benefits of the attorney-client and work-product privileges.

    The successful candidate will have the opportunity to draw upon the experience of colleagues in numerous areas of law, including intellectual property and technology, corporate and finance, real estate, employment and employee benefits.

    MAIN DUTIES AND RESPONSIBILITIES
    This role will have a focus on the tax aspects of corporate and private equity transactions (both advisory and transactional), employment taxes (including status, employee benefits and global mobility), restructuring and real estate transactions, including development and investment. However, as part of our highly regarded global team candidates will also have access to and enjoy the benefit of a wide variety of work and clients across our core service areas, including (but not limited to):

  • International tax and cross border planning
  • Investment banking and banking transactions
  • Capital markets and structured finance transactions
  • Mergers, acquisitions, demergers and floatations
  • Indirect taxes
  • Tax disputes

    • ABOUT YOU
    We do not set upper or lower limits of PQE for any of our vacancies. We have however given an indicative PQE as an approximate guide for applicants. Candidates who have 4 or more years PQE are likely to have the right level of knowledge and have gained the right level of experience needed to be able to undertake this role.

    The ideal candidates will:

  • Be a solicitor or barrister, ideally qualified in England & Wales or a Commonwealth jurisdiction
  • Have experience working in a national or international firm
  • Possess strong technical skills
  • Be able to demonstrate an excellent academic record and the ability to manage more junior team members
  • Be able to create and deliver sustainable, high quality client service whilst also considering client's wider business objectives
  • Be keen to get involved in business development and help drive the UK and international practice forward
  • Be able to handle multiple priorities, working to sometimes conflicting timescales in a fast-paced and challenging environment
  • Build trust and rapport to develop effective relationships, internally and externally

We welcome the unique contribution that you will bring to our firm and actively encourage applications from all talented people – however your talent is packaged, whatever your background or circumstance and regardless of how you identify.

    HYBRID WORKING
    We recognise that people have responsibilities and interests outside of their career and that as a business, we all benefit from working flexibly. That's why we are open to discussing with candidates the different ways in which we are able to support requests for agile working arrangements.

    PRE-ENGAGEMENT SCREENING
    In the event that we make an offer to you, and where local legislation permits and where relevant, we will conduct pre-engagement screening checks that may include but are not limited to your professional and academic qualifications, your eligibility to work in the relevant jurisdiction, any criminal records, your financial stability and work-related references.
