About Clear Street:

Clear Street is modernizing the brokerage ecosystem. Founded in 2018, Clear Street is a diversified financial services firm replacing the legacy infrastructure used across capital markets.

We started from scratch by building a completely cloud-native clearing and custody system designed for today’s complex, global market.

  • Act as internal tax advisor for various business units and stakeholders, including, but not limited to, finance, legal, operations and HR.
  • Monitor legislative and regulatory developments in UK, EMEA, and APAC jurisdictions (including Pillar Two / BEPS) and assess impact on the business.

  • Exceptional technical knowledge of international tax principles
