German Tax Adviser / French Chartered Accountant (m/f/d)

For our Paris office, we are looking for a German Chartered Accountant (Steuerberater) or a qualified French Chartered Accountant (Expert-Comptable) to join us and build their long-term professional future in Paris.

Following a comprehensive onboarding period and, where necessary, obtaining the French professional qualification as an Expert-Comptable (where applicable through the European recognition procedure for professional qualifications), you will have the opportunity to take over the management of our Paris office as Director. Depending on your profile and professional development, the possibility of becoming a partner may also be considered.

As a committed, experienced, client-focused and team-oriented professional, you will work in a challenging, stimulating and highly varied environment.

You will advise and support our predominantly German-speaking clients on all matters relating to French taxation, accounting and, depending on your experience, payroll.

Our approach combines in-depth knowledge of French law with high quality standards and a genuine Franco-German advisory culture.

Your responsibilities

• You are responsible for the technical supervision and quality assurance of the accounting and tax work carried out within the firm.
• You provide your clients with comprehensive advice on accounting and tax matters and, in cooperation with our legal counsel, on related issues, particularly in the areas of corporate law.
• You support our clients during tax audits and act as their key point of contact with the French tax authorities.
• Depending on your profile and experience, you will gradually take on management and organisational responsibilities.
• In the longer term, the objective is for you to take over the management of the office in close cooperation with the partners.

Your profile

• You are a qualified German Tax Adviser (Steuerberater), a French Chartered Accountant (Expert-Comptable), or you have significant relevant professional experience and are currently working towards one of these professional qualifications.
• We are also happy to support candidates preparing for the German Steuerberater examination or the French Expert-Comptable qualification on their path towards obtaining the relevant professional title.
• You have relevant experience advising and supporting French and international corporate groups, particularly in the areas of annual financial statements, tax compliance and general tax advisory services.
• Knowledge of VAT, transfer pricing and tax audits would be an advantage.
• You work in a structured, independent, thorough and responsible manner and place a strong emphasis on the quality of your work.
• You are a reliable, approachable, open-minded and solution-oriented person.
• You have a good command of German and English, as well as a working knowledge of French which you are keen to further develop.
