Experience: With ten years experience working in some Big Four’s tax and legal division, rendering high quality legal, accounting and tax advice, José has got a wealth of qualifications in Private Company Services, as well as M&A, transactions and restructuring sectors. His expertise lies in the ability to identify and capitalize enhancement opportunities for his clients in order to ensure their satisfaction and outperform competition in specific strategic fields. As part of a global M&A Tax network, in his professional career he has carried out several operations intended to understand how tax affects transactions across the world. With a strong focus on transactions with a private equity background, as well as commercially minded and deal hardened, he knows how to identify and advise on the material tax exposures in a transaction and to develop deal structures that appropriately address the tax implications. Working on transactions day-by-day, he is process-driven and understands the mechanics of acquisition and disposals in a competitive environment. He therefore understands the practical impact of tax developments from one country to the next and he is able to spot opportunities and know how to act on them to benefit his clients and their stakeholders.
