Executive Transition Management

Interim tax leadership and executive transition management

Strategic management of tax departments in periods of change

Temporary governance and restructuring of global tax functions

High-level tax advisory and legal counsel during transitional phases

Each shift in leadership reconfigures the geometry through which law sustains power.

These are junctures where continuity is at risk — they pressure-test systems, expose liabilities, and shift the legal balance of the organisation. At LS2P, we advise boards, executive committees, and private shareholders in navigating these inflection points — discreetly, lawfully, and with strategic depth.

The nature of our work tends to speak for itself. Such mandates have involved: R&D tax credit audits, VAT restructuring on cross-border flows, integration and corporate tax reporting, and implementation of electronic invoicing systems — both in France and internationally. We also act as interim tax directors or lead internal teams during sensitive transitions.

With extensive in-house experience at executive level and a proven track record with sector-leading companies, we integrate quickly, adapt to complex environments, and anchor our legal work in operational performance.

These mandates draw on expertise in international tax compliance, addressing regulatory requirements and operational execution in parallel.

Our interventions start rapidly and adapt to your operational context.
