This is an exciting opportunity to join the Accenture EMEA tax team working primarily in the V&A function.

You will be working closely with other members of the Tax Team as well as other key functions such as Corporate Development, Legal, Controllership and Treasury.
Key roles and responsibilities include:
Leading the tax due diligence on V&A deals with support of external advisors, (who in most cases perform the due diligence), to scope and manage the deal. This includes management of external advisors.
Understanding the tax risks identified during due diligence and communicating those effectively to tax (Area Tax, Tax Accounting) and non-tax (Corporate Development, Legal, HR) stakeholders within the business.
Working with external advisors to provide tax input into the SPA.
Providing tax support on post-acquisition integration, which includes co-ordination of the post-acquisition integration step plan, tax merger or business transfer support, cross border contract reviews and working collaboratively with key integration workstreams such as Controllership, Legal and HR.
