POSITION INFO:
Corporate Tax Manager – Advisory | Johannesburg

This is a role for a senior tax professional who actually enjoys getting into the detail, solving complex problems, and seeing the impact of their work. You won’t be doing rote compliance, you’ll be advising clients on corporate tax strategy, international tax, M&A, and everything in between.
We’re looking for someone who is technically excellent, confident with clients, and comfortable in a lean, high-performing team. You need to be hands-on, pragmatic, and capable of taking ownership from start to finish, from research and drafting opinions to supervising junior staff and delivering projects on time.

What you’ll do:

Provide deep technical advice on corporate tax issues
Draft opinions, concept papers, and complex advisory reports
Lead due diligence and tax structuring projects
Engage with clients and authorities professionally and directly
Supervise junior team members, review work, and mentor
Spot risks and opportunities within client portfolios
Keep up-to-date with legislation, case law, and tax developments

Who we’re looking for:

CA(SA) or Attorney with HDip or MCom in Tax
6–8 years in a corporate tax advisory or consulting environment
Strong technical skills and commercial awareness
Comfortable in a fast-paced, lean team, a doer, not a delegator
Excellent communication, research, and presentation skills
MUST come from an advisory industry

This is a role where you’ll be trusted with real responsibility, work on challenging assignments, and see the tangible impact of your advice.
