The Opportunity

Join us to build something exceptional.

As part of EY’s Tax Accounting & Risk Advisory Services (TARAS) practice, you will operate at the intersection of tax and assurance: working like an auditor, grounded in tax law, and exposed to some of the most complex and internationally relevant topics in financial reporting.

You will work with leading national and international banks and insurance companies, helping them navigate increasingly complex tax reporting requirements, redesign their tax functions, and embrace transformation through technology and AI. No two engagements are the same, this is a role defined by variety, intellectual challenge, and real impact.

• Lead tax audits for international groups and Swiss entities, working closely with assurance teams and bringing together tax and audit perspectives
• Support clients in transforming their tax functions, combining technical expertise with process, data, and technology-driven solutions
• Develop deep expertise in areas such as BEPS Pillar 2 and assess implications for both audit and advisory engagements
• Manage client portfolios end-to-end, including planning, delivery, and continuous improvement of processes and quality
• Coach and develop team members, contributing to a high-performing, collaborative, and ambitious team culture 

Skills and attributes for success

• 5–7 years of experience in tax accounting, tax audit, or a comparable role, ideally in an international environment
