Transfer Pricing Senior Associate

Your new company You will be joining a well-respected professional services organisation with a strong presence in the Scottish market and a growing tax advisory offering. The firm partners with a broad range of financial services clients, including banks, insurers, asset managers and fintechs, and supports them with complex tax and cross-border matters. The Edinburgh office offers a collaborative working culture, flexible hybrid arrangements, and a strong focus on continuous development, giving you the opportunity to grow your technical expertise in a supportive and high-performing environment.

Your new role As a Senior Associate within the Transfer Pricing team, you will support the delivery of advisory and compliance projects for a portfolio of financial services clients. Your work will involve analysing financial and operational data, assisting with the preparation of transfer pricing documentation, supporting value chain analyses, and contributing to advisory projects such as restructurings, business model changes, and new transactions. You will collaborate with colleagues across tax, corporate finance, and wider advisory teams, gaining exposure to complex and high-profile work. This role is well suited to someone looking to deepen their TP or FS experience while building confidence in managing client relationships and contributing to the development of the practice.

What you'll need to succeed To succeed in this role, you will bring experience in either transfer pricing or the financial services sector - and a desire to build capability in the other. You should feel comfortable working with data, analysing information, and applying guidance such as OECD principles (training and support are provided where needed). Strong communication skills, curiosity, and a willingness to learn will be key, as will the ability to work collaboratively on multiple projects and meet deadlines. Professional qualifications such as CTA, ACA, ACCA or equivalent are beneficial but not essential, provided you have relevant experience and a strong interest in developing a specialist career in cross-border tax within financial services.

What you'll get in return You will join an organisation that places real value on progression, mentorship, and continuous learning. You can expect a competitive salary, flexible hybrid working arrangements, and access to a comprehensive benefits package. Working with major financial services clients offers exposure to diverse, technically interesting work and the opportunity to build a strong foundation in transfer pricing and international tax. You'll be supported by experienced managers and directors who will help you grow your skills, develop confidence in client-facing work, and progress toward more senior roles within a dynamic and expanding team.
