THE OPPORTUNITY
What can I tell you about our client? The team is the market leading tax practice in the MENA region, dominating for more than two decades. It is also the fastest growing tax practice globally within the firm - 40% growth year on year is extremely impressive and has created senior tax leadership opportunities at Partner, Associate Partner, Director and Senior Manager levels.
WHAT THE CLIENT SAYS
Having recently spent time in Dubai, what is clear is the significant growth potential across the KSA region. To put it mildly, it’s HUGE and I’d love to speak to Senior Tax Managers, Tax Directors and Tax Partners who have experience of handling complex, global compliance & reporting projects whilst playing a key role in marketing initiatives to further build the service line in the Middle East. From a personality perspective, you will need to be up for an adventure, cope well with spontaneity (repetitive daily structure does not exist!) and possess the leadership and people skills to build a strong team that you can proudly look back on in 3-5 years.
WHAT WE THINK....
Through speaking to Partners who have lived in KSA/MENA for 5-10 years, their career development has been extremely exciting. Compared to remaining in the UK or another mainstream location - Mangers have become Partners within 7 years, they have seen teams grow at an unprecedented rate compared to their global counterparts and the lack of structure and rapidly changing tax environment has been fun to be a part of!
Professionals with Oil & Gas, Private Equity and Real Estate sector experience are of high interest, however there are also career opportunities for strong generalists. For further information, please contact Liz Tookey
