Job description

About Unity Advisory

Unity Advisory is a pure-play, experience-led CFO advisory firm providing integrated finance, commercial, tax and deals support. We are free from audit conflicts and AI-enabled by design, combining deep technical expertise with automation, analytics and AI built into the delivery of every engagement. We are building an alternative to traditional advisory firms, focused on clarity over complexity, outcomes over hours, and practical advice delivered at pace for CFOs making high-consequence decisions.

The Role

We're hiring a Senior Manager for our Equity Reward Tax team. You'll draw on Deals experience to advise private (including PE-backed) and listed companies on employee share plans and equity incentives — EMI, CSOP, growth shares, MIPs and listed plan structures — working directly with CFOs, HR, legal and investor stakeholders across the deal lifecycle.

Responsibilites

Lead strategic client engagements involving equity incentive design, implementation, and governance for private (including PE-backed) and listed companies.
Advise on EMI, CSOP, growth shares, MIPs, RSUs, LTIPs, option plans, and hybrid structures, with a deep understanding of tax, legal, and accounting implications.
Deliver commercially grounded advice aligned with corporate transactions (e.g., investment rounds, exits, IPOs) and ongoing employee/shareholder alignment.
Work closely with tax, legal, corporate finance, and valuation teams to deliver integrated, high-quality solutions.
Drive scalable delivery by implementing AI-enabled tools across modelling, documentation, and communications.
Lead business development across key accounts and industry sectors, identifying cross-service opportunities and building long-term client relationships.
Develop and mentor team members, build succession pipelines, and foster technical excellence across the equity and reward specialism.
Contribute to new proposition development in response to evolving market, regulatory, and investor needs.

Qualifications

A professional qualification (e.g., CTA, ACA, solicitor) is preferred.
Significant experience (typically 8+ years) advising on UK equity incentives, ideally with exposure to both private and listed companies in a Deals environment.
Deep understanding of equity design, implementation, tax treatment, and exit scenarios, including specific experience in private equity-backed structures.
Proven leadership of complex, multi-disciplinary advisory projects with CFO, RemCo, or investor engagement.
Experience using AI and automation in modelling, reporting, or documentation is advantageous.
Commercial acumen and proven ability to grow accounts and originate new opportunities.
Strong people leadership and team development capability.
Excellent communication, negotiation, and relationship management skills.

WORK ENVIRONMENT
A truly hybrid and flexible working environment. We offer the opportunity to be at the forefront of AI-driven advisory services. You'll be working on cutting-edge projects and encouraged to deploy the latest analytical tools and approaches.

EQUAL OPPORTUNITY STATEMENT
At Unity Advisory, we are committed to providing an inclusive and accessible recruitment process. In line with the Equality Act 2010, we will accommodate any suitable candidate requiring assistance to attend or conduct an interview. If you need any adjustments or support, please let us know when either scheduling your interview or in your application cover letter.
