Connect to your opportunity

In Deloitte's US/UK High Net Worth group, it's our job to help our clients navigate the intricacies of the UK and US tax systems, advising them on every aspect of personal tax. Recognised as a market leader within this space, our goal is to proactively deliver the very best advice to our clients, with whom we seek to build deep and lasting relationships.

Made up of over 40 tax specialists from a diverse range of backgrounds, we are a team that is continuing to grow, both in terms of size and the type of client work we take on. From day one, you'll not only work closely with entrepreneurs and ultra-high net worth individuals, but clients from a range of industries including some of the world's leading banks, law firms and multinationals, to major hedge funds and partnerships, to some of the most sought after entertainment companies and popular sports clubs in the country. Since the work is so varied and fast-paced, you'll quickly develop a mix of UK and US tax technical skills and commercial acumen, interspersed with those softer skills that will truly make you stand out from the crowd.

We take personal development very seriously here and believe that it should be tailored to the individual. We offer a range of exciting initiatives that will enable you to achieve your goals, such as international secondments, and opportunities to gain further qualifications, to name but a few.

• Building internal networks within the firm to encourage collaboration, not only within Deloitte Tax but across service lines and globally, and attending external networking and intermediary events to build eminence in the market
• Supporting more junior members of the team through participation in talent initiatives (i.e. buddy/mentoring new joiners), regular feedback and effective delegation to promote stewardship and personal development

Connect to your skills and professional experience

• You're a natural at building relationships. Someone who brings out the best in others and is a brilliant listener. You'll grow our business without compromising standards, integrity or culture.
