Great role for an experienced intermediate tax solicitor in specialist team at a top tier law firm

• Varied, high quality work
• Excellent mentoring from specialist partners
• Genuine career development opportunity

Simpson Grierson is looking for an experienced tax solicitor to join its busy, dynamic team, in the Auckland office. This role represents a genuine opportunity to develop your career. There is a gap in the team at intermediate level, and a bright, driven lawyer will have the chance to shine and advance. Our tax team advises on an extremely wide range of transactions and scenarios, ranging from M& A and corporate finance to highly specialised public sector and private client work, as well as tax disputes.  
  
We are looking for a lawyer with 3-8 years' experience in tax law from a reputable, professional services firm and exposure to a wide range of corporate and general tax matters, including GST. Some public sector (local or central government) tax experience would be valuable but is not critical.  Experience with tax compliance and due diligence would also be advantageous.  You'll have excellent communication, written and analytical skills and will be self-managing and efficient, with an interest in building your business development skills.
 
The role offers fantastic quality work, with loads of variety and the opportunity to get involved in pure tax advisory work.  You’ll build solid client relationships with a variety of corporate clients, and develop your practice and profile, with mentoring and support from a team of true specialists, who are also a relaxed team who get on well together. You will be well supported in your own professional and business development with plenty of learning and development opportunities on offer.
 
Simpson Grierson strives to provide an innovative environment of excellence.  We are proud of our diverse and inclusive culture, and our reputation for putting people first in everything we do.
