US UK PCT Tax Director

London
US/UK PCT Tax Director

I'm currently partnering with a leading global professional services firm as they look to appoint a Director into their Private Client / Cross–Border Tax team. This is a particularly interesting hire – not just a replacement role, but part of a wider growth strategy, giving you the chance to step into a visible, influential position with a high–quality client base from day one. From what I'm seeing in the market, opportunities at this level that combine genuine advisory exposure, international complexity, and a clear route to Partner are relatively limited – which is why this role is worth a conversation. You'd be joining an established US/UK cross–border team that advises a sophisticated client base including HNW individuals, family offices, private equity and hedge fund principals, and professional partnerships. The work is notably advisory–led rather than compliance–heavy, spanning areas such as residence/domicile planning, transactions, wealth structuring and succession planning – so it suits someone who enjoys being closer to clients and more involved in decision–making. The role will focus on:

  • Taking ownership of a complex private client portfolio , acting as a senior point of contact
  • Leading on high–value advisory projects , ensuring work is both technically strong and commercially relevant
  • Playing an active role in business development , both through your own network and internally
  • Supporting and mentoring the team, with real input into people development and team strategy
  • Managing the commercial aspects of the portfolio (fees, utilisation, growth opportunities)
  • Working closely with other service lines to deliver holistic client solutions
They're keen to speak with individuals who are already operating at (or close to) Director level and bring:
  • A strong background in private client / personal tax , ideally with US and/or UK cross–border exposure
  • Experience working with non–domiciled and high–net–worth individuals
  • A track record of building long–term client relationships and winning work
  • The ability to lead, influence and develop teams
  • A commercial mindset – someone who understands how to grow and manage a portfolio effectively
The consistent feedback I've heard is that this team offers:
  • A genuinely strong client base with complex, international exposure
  • Clear headroom for progression , with a credible path to Partner
  • A more collaborative, less hierarchical culture than some of the larger teams in the market
  • Flexibility and a working environment that supports long–term sustainability, not burnout
  • The opportunity to shape your role and impact the direction of the team
If this aligns with where you're looking to take your career next, apply with your updated CV or reach out directly.
