Overview of Role
Please give an overview of your role and what this involves on a day-to-day basis.
I was in 2 different teams. The first was Employer Solutions where they are split into Employment Tax, Expatriate Tax and, Share Schemes. I worked in teh team during January, busy season, so there were lots of expat tax returns to be done. There was the onboarding process for client including KYC checks, and engagement letters. In CT the work included companies tax returns and as each company can have a different deadline it was more steady throughout the year. As well as the KYC checks and engagement letters.
Were you given much responsibility during your placement / internship?
We were responsible for each client we were assigned to, so yes. Of course there were managers/ Partners who were reviewing the work, but it was our client too which was nice.
Please rate how meaningful the work you were doing was
