  • 2-3 Years PQE
  • Tax controversy experience, particularly dealing with general anti-avoidance, transfer pricing and tax treaty issues
  • Strong analytical and problem-solving skills
  • Excellent drafting and communication abilities
  • Attention to detail and sound commercial judgement
  • A collaborative mindset and commitment to outstanding client service

Why DLA Piper?
