Senior - Private Capital Transactions, International Tax
The FTTA team at EY is unique in having all transaction specialists in one place. The team includes Private Equity deal specialists, in addition to Portfolio, Restructuring and Fund/Management structuring specialists. This provides the team with a natural hedge against market turbulence with focus shifting between areas as the economic cycle develops, which also creates a greater degree of job security.
In this dynamic and fast-moving environment, individuals apply their skills to a variety of transactions. With a truly entrepreneurial spirit there is the flexibility to shape your career in particular sectors or areas of the M&A landscape or to get experience across the spectrum.
The Private Capital Transaction Tax team deals with private equity clients as well as specifically focussing on the areas of the M&A market that are developing the quickest, including Infrastructure and Real Estate. Our flexibility and speed to market means that we have grown each year throughout the downturn – in order to take advantage of the current opportunities in the market we need to continue to recruit the best talent.
