About the Role

Kuubiik is recruiting a technically proficient Tax Consulting Manager on behalf of a client with a small and growing Tax Consulting team in Melbourne.

This is a genuine Tax Consulting position focused on complex Australian taxation matters, including Australian legislative research, tax structure advice and technical tax advisory work.

This prospect is distinctly different from a Business Services or predominantly tax compliance position. Our client is specifically interested in professionals currently working, or recently having worked, within a dedicated Tax Consulting team in a Big Four or established mid-tier professional services firm.

The team is experiencing a high volume of work and is looking for an experienced Manager who combines strong technical tax capability with the ability to supervise and review work, develop team members, contribute to technical training across the firm and support other divisions on complex taxation matters.

Job Description

As Tax Consulting Manager, you will work across interesting and technically complex client matters while taking responsibility for the quality and development of work delivered by the broader team.

Key responsibilities include:

- Undertaking detailed research into Australian tax legislation and applying legislation to complex client matters.
- Providing technical tax consulting and advisory services to clients.
- Advising on tax structures, structuring considerations and other complex taxation matters.

commercially practical advice.
- Preparing and reviewing technical tax advice, research and client recommendations.
- Working directly with clients on complex tax consulting engagements.
- Managing engagements and maintaining a high standard of technical delivery.
- Identifying taxation risks, opportunities and potential structuring considerations.
- Supervising and reviewing the work of junior and senior team members.
- Coaching, mentoring and developing team members to strengthen their technical tax capabilities.
- Undertaking and contributing to technical training across the firm.
- Supporting other divisions where specialist taxation expertise is required.
- Working collaboratively with senior stakeholders across complex client engagements.
- Maintaining current knowledge of Australian tax legislation, ATO guidance and relevant taxation developments.

About You

We are looking for candidates who can demonstrate genuine technical Tax Consulting experience rather than predominantly Business Services or tax compliance experience.

The successful candidate will ideally have:

- Approximately 7+ years of relevant Australian taxation experience, with substantial experience specifically within Tax Consulting / Tax Advisory.




- Current or recent experience working within a dedicated Tax Consulting team in a Big Four or established mid-tier professional services firm.
- Strong knowledge and practical application of Australian tax legislation.
- Demonstrated experience undertaking Australian legislative and technical tax research.

- Strong technical tax advisory capability across complex client engagements.
- Manager-level experience with responsibility for supervising and reviewing the work of other team members.

- The ability to contribute to technical training and knowledge sharing across the broader firm.
- Strong client-facing, stakeholder management and communication capabilities.
- Excellent analytical and technical writing skills.
- A relevant tertiary qualification in Taxation, Accounting, Commerce, Business, Law or a related discipline.
- CA, CPA, CTA or equivalent professional qualification is highly regarded.

Important

This is not a general Business Services, Business Advisory or predominantly tax compliance role.

We are specifically seeking candidates with genuine Tax Consulting experience, ideally gained within a dedicated Tax Consulting team at a Big Four or established mid-tier firm.

Candidates should be able to demonstrate experience in Australian legislative research, technical tax analysis, tax structure advice and complex client consulting work, alongside Manager-level supervision and team development responsibilities.
