Job Duties : During my time at EY, I have advised clients on local and international tax matters in both the direct and indirect tax space. During my time at EY, I have participated in tax assignments covering corporate income tax compliance, transfer pricing documentation, tax health check reviews, Customs taxes reviews, human capital compliance, restructuring, due diligence, Monthly VAT, PAYE, Stamp Duty, Withholding Tax and Excise Duty compliance, URA tax audits and among others. I am also engaged on various assignments in financial reporting including among others preparing financial statements for some clients. Joining EY in 2017 at a junior level has helped me to gain a lot of experience at both execution and supervisory level. The above- mentioned experiences in addition to the skills I have acquired from my current position have helped me to develop more skills, to gain excellent interpersonal and communication skills as well as to work in a multicultural environment. As a senior tax consultant, I am responsible for leading the field teams that execute the clients’ projects. I also act as the first point of contact for the project clients and keep the project managers and directors updated of all ongoing issues. I am also responsible for the preparation and/or review of the project deliverables for the manager/ director’s review and/or signoff and managing the engagement metrics (i.e. looking for business, Billings, Collections and managing Work in Progress) accordingly. This has instilled in me various technical skills in tax consultancy and advisory assignments As a senior tax consultant, I am also responsible for training, imparting knowledge and transferring skills to the junior Tax Advisors in the department.
