Elaine - Transfer Pricing Audit - Large Corporates Division

My role as an Assistant Principal in Transfer Pricing Audit is to conduct risk driven audits and other compliance interventions in transfer pricing. The objective is to protect the Irish corporate tax base.

I am responsible for identifying cases with indicators of transfer pricing risk. I appraise those cases to decide whether to initiate an enquiry. If warranted,  I initiate an examination of the pricing of that company’s intragroup arrangements. The cases that I manage require persistence and continuous engagement with taxpayers and their advisors. This includes interviews with key functional leads at some of the largest multinational enterprises in Ireland. I also provide transfer pricing support and advice to colleagues across operational divisions in Revenue, where the need arises. In addition, I provide on-the-job training and mentoring to staff to develop their knowledge and skills.

I find the role to be both rewarding and motivating. Revenue has an excellent culture of sharing knowledge, support and encouragement. I am provided with fantastic opportunities to use my tax, accounting and transfer pricing experience to manage challenging but very interesting compliance interventions. I receive strong support and guidance from my manager and colleagues. No two days are the same in Transfer Pricing Audit, which demonstrates the diverse and varied nature of the role.

Revenue has a strong focus on career development, values training, upskilling, and actively encourages staff to do external courses. The organisation also provides structured internal training courses on tax technical topics as well as soft skills such as leadership.

Hussein - Transfer Pricing - International Tax Division

I am an Assistant Principal Officer in one of the Transfer Pricing Branches in International Tax Division. My role supports Ireland’s contributions to policy developments in transfer pricing, alongside the Department of Finance. This includes representing Ireland at the OECD’s Working Party 6 – the technical body responsible for the OECD Transfer Pricing Guidelines – and at EU-level meetings. My role also involves supporting initiatives to build and maintain Revenue’s capacity to deal with complex transfer pricing matters.

In addition, I support Ireland’s Competent Authority team. We evaluate and negotiate complex transfer pricing cases under the Mutual Agreement Procedure (MAP) and the Advance Pricing Agreement (APA) framework. This involves assessing a variety of unique and challenging taxpayer cases, while also building relationships with our Competent Authority counterparts and our tax treaty partners.

My professional experience in Revenue is a truly rewarding one with engaging work, the variety of which means I am continually learning something new. I take great pride in representing Ireland’s views internationally – be it at OECD meetings or in competent authority negotiations. All this is done with support from an able team of high-calibre specialist leaders and colleagues.
