Tax Senior / Asst. M

About the Role

Looking to level up your tax career beyond compliance? This is it.

At REMS, we’re not your typical accounting firm. We’re a tax-focused, fast-growing team that believes taxation is more than numbers—it’s strategy, impact, and real business value.

We’re proud to be among the few firms where all partners are licensed Tax Agents under Section 153 of the Income Tax Act. You’ll be learning directly from senior professionals with hands-on experience from both the Inland Revenue Board (IRB) and private sector, actively involved in national-level platforms like the National Tax Conference and Chartered Tax Institute of Malaysia (CTIM).

Oh—and we don’t just talk tax. We walk it. We organised one of the largest Tax Budget Seminars in the Northern Region, with ~500 participants at PWCC 💥

Even better—you’ll have the opportunity to be part of the organising team, working on an event that is fully planned and executed in-house by our own team. It’s a reflection of what we stand for: strong capability, ownership, and impact—despite being a growing firm.

If you want exposure, real responsibility, and a team that actually vibes—you’ll fit right in.

What You’ll Be Doing

1. Manage a portfolio of clients, delivering both tax compliance and advisory services with a practical, business-focused approach

2. Accountable for meeting all deliverable timelines, ensuring work is completed accurately and on schedule

3. Lead and support junior team members, ensuring smooth execution of assignments while guiding their development

   • Full scope of personal and corporate tax compliance
   • SST advisory and treatment
   • Tax incentive applications
   • Global mobility tax services
   • Tax audits, investigations, and appeals

5. Conduct tax research and interpret legislation, applying it to real client scenarios

6. Draft advisory reports, technical opinions, and tax appeal submissions

7. Review tax computations and filings to ensure accuracy, completeness, and compliance

8. Identify risks, opportunities, and practical improvements to strengthen clients’ tax positions

9. Take a practical, value-driven approach—focusing on what truly matters to clients rather than immaterial or non-impactful issues.

What We’re Looking For

• Degree in Accounting, Finance, or a related field, or professional qualification (e.g. ACCA, CPA, ICAEW, CTIM or equivalent)
• 3–6 years of relevant tax experience (Senior / Assistant Manager level)
• Solid exposure to Malaysian taxation, including personal tax, corporate tax, and SST
• Experience in tax audits, investigations, or appeals is a strong advantage
• Strong technical foundation with the ability to interpret tax legislation and apply it practically

• Comfortable using Excel and relevant tax/accounting software
• Able to communicate clearly and confidently with clients and team members
• Capable of working independently, managing multiple deadlines, and taking ownership of your work
• Positive attitude, proactive mindset, and a genuine interest in growing in the tax field

What We Offer

At REMS, we’re all about good work, good people, and good vibes. 🚀 We believe you should enjoy the journey while building your career—so here’s what’s in it for you:

• Flexible working + generous leave = better work-life balance (because burnout is not the goal)
• Team hangouts, from chill lunches to company trips—yes, we actually have fun together
• Medical coverage, performance incentives & bonuses to reward your hustle
