- 5+ years of relevant accounting experience, ideally trained within an accounting or professional services firm, with exposure to tax, private clients, trusts, or international structures
- Experience in a family office, trust company, law firm, or private wealth environment is an advantage, not a requirement
- Solid understanding of international tax concepts, including how accounting feeds into tax outcomes
- Fluent in English, written and spoken
- High proficiency in the Microsoft Office Suite, especially Excel
- Highly analytical, detail-oriented, and comfortable working with sensitive data
- Able to work independently, exercise discretion, and manage confidential information

- Calm, reliable, and capable of handling sensitive and time-critical matters
