What would you say are the most desirable skills for members of the taxation team?

George K.

Assistant Tax Advisor

Hey,
Sorry for the slow reply, I have been out of the office for the last 5 weeks (not a desired skill). But I am back now. To be honest this is a tough question, as everyone I work with in the tax team is skilled in different ways, and has a completely different skill set. It's not so much about having specific skills but more about how you can utilise the skills you do have. What I would say though is there are common skills with everyone I work with, and they are: a willingness to work hard, a willingness to learn and the desire to work towards the success of the team.
