Join an expanding Financial Services Operational Transfer Pricing team at a leading global professional services firm. Lead TP within major transformation programmes, design governance and process improvements, and shape how technology from ERP to Alteryx and Power BI transforms TP operations, working directly with UK leadership.
If you have spent years examining and redesigning tax and finance processes, you will know transfer pricing rarely fails at the policy stage. It fails in the ledgers, data flows and controls meant to make policy real, and tax authorities are increasingly looking there first.
We are partnering with a leading global professional services firm to appoint an Operational Transfer Pricing Senior Manager to its Financial Services team, where process, governance and technology sit at the centre of the work.
The Opportunity
Operational transfer pricing is growing, driven by a more complex international compliance landscape, major advances in tax technology and sharper scrutiny of how organisations run and control their TP functions. In response, the firm’s Financial Services OpTP team is expanding. You will join a multidisciplinary group embedding efficient, sustainable TP processes and systems, working directly with the UK Operational TP leadership team to deliver innovative solutions and shape the market offering.
What You’ll Be Doing
You will work with a diverse portfolio of financial services clients on pressing operational TP challenges, from process improvement and governance frameworks to financial system implementations. You will lead the TP elements of wider business transformation programmes, integrating TP inputs into broader tax and finance workflows, and identify where bespoke technology tools can supplement ERP capability.
Beyond delivery, you will build trusted client relationships, mentor junior colleagues, strengthen the team’s capabilities and drive innovation through emerging technologies and thought leadership.
What You’ll Bring
A solid grasp of governance and process is essential, and the role suits someone who has examined and redesigned tax or financial processes as an auditor, financial controller or consultant. You will have a proven track record of advising on OpTP implementations at senior manager level or equivalent in public practice.
You will know what best in class OpTP looks like, with experience of at least one major ERP (SAP, Oracle, Workday, Microsoft Dynamics 365 or NetSuite) and working knowledge of automation tools such as Alteryx, PowerApps and Power BI. Good knowledge of UK TP policy and DPT legislation, alongside a general sense of overseas regulation, is expected, and ACA, ACCA, CIMA or equivalent would be beneficial.
Why This Role
This is a chance to specialise in one of the fastest growing areas of transfer pricing, in an expanding team. You will work directly with the UK Operational TP leadership team and have real influence over how the proposition develops. Your week is split flexibly between office, home and client site, supported by private medical cover, virtual GP access and volunteering days.
