The posting

CharteredPartners is seeking an experienced private client tax professional to join our client in Dubai at Partner level. The successful candidate will lead private-client and family-office advisory delivery, own client origination and practice growth, and act as a senior technical authority on wealth structuring, the UAE Corporate Tax regime and cross-border estate planning. Specific qualifications, regulatory fluency and technical breadth are detailed in the sections that follow.

Confidential Client. Applying to this position means that you are interested to have an initial confidential discussion about how we can help you to identify and join a new accounting-firm practice. With your authorisation we will exclusively run the entire application and recruitment process for you, keeping you apprised at every step. With over 30 years' combined experience of helping the most talented accounting, audit, tax and advisory professionals to make safe, well-judged moves into rewarding new roles, we have the experience, network and ability to help you.

Key Responsibilities:

  • Lead private-client and family-office advisory engagements, including wealth structuring, succession planning and the establishment of holding and investment vehicles.
  • Advise high-net-worth individuals and family groups on the UAE Corporate Tax regime at 9%, effective from 2023 and 2024, including its application to personal investment and business income.
  • Advise on free-zone structuring and Qualifying Free Zone Person (QFZP) status, and on the use of ADGM and DIFC structures and foundations.
  • Advise on residency planning and the cross-border tax position of internationally mobile families, including treaty and home-country interactions.
  • Oversee VAT considerations at 5% and transfer-pricing positions, on an OECD-aligned basis, where private structures hold operating businesses.
  • Originate new relationships and grow a private-client fee base, working with bankers, trustees and legal advisers.
  • Provide partner-level review and risk management, and develop the technical capability of the team.

Required Qualifications and Skills:

  • Member of the ICAEW or ACCA, or an equivalent recognised accountancy or tax qualification.
  • At least twelve years of tax experience, with substantial private-client, family-office or wealth-structuring exposure.
  • Working knowledge of the UAE Corporate Tax regime, including free-zone and QFZP rules.
  • Familiarity with the UAE VAT regime at 5% and with Federal Tax Authority registration and compliance obligations.
  • Demonstrable command of cross-border wealth and succession structuring.
  • Understanding of ADGM and DIFC structures, foundations and the associated regulatory environment.
  • A proven record of client origination and the ability to build and retain a private-client base.
  • Strong advisory-writing skills and the ability to issue defensible structuring advice.
  • Excellent relationship-management skills with families, principals and intermediaries.
  • Right to work in the United Arab Emirates, or eligibility to obtain the appropriate residence visa.

Preferred Experience:

  • Prior partner, director or principal experience in a professional services firm or private-client practice.
  • Exposure to international clients relocating to the UAE and to inbound residency planning.
  • Familiarity with OECD-aligned transfer pricing as it applies to family-owned operating groups.
  • Experience advising on trusts, foundations and multi-jurisdictional holding structures.
  • A visible market profile through publications, panels or professional-body involvement.
  • An established network among private banks, trustees and law firms in the region.

Compensation:

Competitive package commensurate with seniority and experience, including base, performance-based bonus, long-term incentives and (where applicable) partner-track participation.

Next Steps:

This opportunity is open to candidates who hold or can obtain the right to work in the United Arab Emirates and who match the above criteria. Please apply to receive prompt contact from an experienced and specialist accounting-firm recruitment consultant.

  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
