Private Companies Tax Associate Director - Big 4 Firm London / Cambridge Hybrid £80,000 - £100,000 + £6,700 cash allowance + bonus + benefits I am working with a leading Big 4 firm that is looking to hire a Corporate Tax Associate Director into its growing Private Companies team. This is a senior opportunity for someone with strong UK corporate tax experience who wants to advise privately owned, founder-led, family-owned, PE-backed and high-growth businesses across a broad range of advisory and compliance matters. The team works with ambitious private businesses through key stages of their lifecycle, including organic growth, international expansion, acquisitions, refinancings, restructurings, carve-outs, disposals, PE investment, trade sales and IPO readiness. As an Associate Director, you will take a lead role in managing client relationships, delivering complex corporate tax projects, identifying advisory opportunities and supporting the continued growth of the team. The role will involve providing technical advice across areas such as international expansion, due diligence, acquisition structuring, post-acquisition integration, exit planning, group reorganisations, refinancings, corporate simplification and tax reporting. You will also coordinate input from wider tax specialists across VAT, employment taxes, incentives, international tax and other areas, ensuring clients receive joined-up advice across the full tax landscape. This would suit someone with UK corporate tax experience gained in compliance, advisory, transactions or a mixed role. Experience with privately owned, owner-managed, family-owned, PE-backed or entrepreneurial businesses would be particularly relevant. You should be commercially minded, confident leading client relationships, comfortable managing senior stakeholders and able to oversee multiple projects and teams at once. At this level, you will also play an important role in developing junior team members, supporting business development activity and working closely with Partners and Directors across the wider private business tax network. CTA, ACA, ACCA or equivalent experience would be highly relevant. This is a strong move for someone who wants a broad senior corporate tax role with excellent advisory exposure, direct client ownership, clear progression potential and the platform of a major Big 4 firm.
