We are partnering with a leading $70B+ alternative asset manager to hire a VP of Tax for its private capital investment platform — a highly visible, growth-oriented role with a sophisticated tax team you will lead.
If you would like to know a bit more about this opportunity, or are considering applying, then please read the following job information.
You will play a hands-on role in fund structuring, acquisitions, divestitures, and strategic tax planning, while gaining exposure to sophisticated differentiated capital investors.

This company offers the prestige of a large, multinational firm with the exposure and growth opportunities of a close-knit team.
