Tax - Associate​/Senior Associate

Overview

A leading City law firm is seeking a mid‑level associate to join its highly regarded Tax team, with a focus on asset management work.

The role offers exposure to a broad range of tax matters for asset managers across alternative asset classes, including private equity, venture, credit, infrastructure and real estate. Work will include fund structuring and formation, advising asset managers on carried interest and co‑investment arrangements, tax aspects of acquisitions and disposals (including secondaries and GP stake transactions), and wider advisory and contentious tax issues.

There will also be opportunities to advise institutional investors on complex fund‑related tax matters.

The successful candidate will work closely with colleagues across Tax, Funds, Financial Services and transactional teams, benefiting from high‑quality, technically complex work and strong training and development support.

Applicants should be England & Wales qualified with 3–6 PQE and a strong academic background.

Strong technical skills, commercial awareness and a collaborative approach are required.

The role offers excellent quality of work, clear development opportunities and a supportive, inclusive working environment.
