Job Description & Summary

About us:

PwC is the market leader in Transfer Pricing (TP) in Ireland.  Our TP team consists of 4 Partners and over 60 TP experts who specialise in helping organisations develop and implement intra-group business models, comply with local and international TP rules and stay ahead of changes that impact their businesses, navigating complexity and risk.   Our Transfer Pricing practice is the biggest of its kind in Ireland and is at the forefront of change in the sector.
