Harrison Chapman
Senior Manager - Melbourne
Harrison is a transfer pricing and international tax specialist, working with large corporate entities and multinational groups across Australia.
He advises on complex cross-border tax matters, helping organisations manage regulatory risk, strengthen compliance frameworks and align their global tax strategies with commercial objectives.
Harrison works closely with Australian-headquartered multinational groups and inbound investors to design, implement and defend robust transfer pricing strategies. His focus is on ensuring that intercompany arrangements reflect commercial reality, meet Australian Taxation Office (ATO) expectations and comply with OECD guidelines.
He is particularly experienced in supporting organisations navigating the evolving global tax landscape, including Country-by-Country (CbC) Reporting obligations and the OECD Pillar Two (GloBE) rules. Harrison partners with corporate tax and finance teams to simplify complex international tax requirements and embed practical, technology-enabled solutions that improve reporting accuracy, efficiency and governance.
"I help multinational organisations bring clarity to complex global tax rules and build transfer pricing frameworks that support sustainable international growth."
Harrison advises clients at critical stages of their international expansion. He assists with designing comprehensive transfer pricing policies for new cross-border related-party transactions, ensuring that structures are scalable, defensible and aligned with long-term commercial strategy. His advice helps clients mitigate risk, avoid disputes and maintain strong relationships with tax authorities.
A key part of Harrison’s work involves leveraging advanced technology solutions to streamline and automate CbC Reporting processes. By integrating systems and improving data integrity, he helps large corporate groups enhance global tax transparency while reducing manual compliance burdens. His approach combines technical expertise with a strong understanding of operational processes, ensuring solutions are both compliant and commercially workable.
Harrison also provides guidance on OECD Pillar Two global minimum tax rules, supporting Australian multinational groups as they prepare for increased disclosure and compliance requirements. He works with senior stakeholders to assess exposure, model impacts and implement governance frameworks that support informed decision-making.
What Harrison values most about his role is the analytical and strategic depth of international tax advisory. He enjoys working through complex value chains, understanding how businesses operate across jurisdictions and aligning transfer pricing models with commercial substance. He is motivated by helping clients navigate regulatory uncertainty with confidence and delivering evidence-based advice that stands up to scrutiny.
Harrison is driven by bringing structure to complexity. He takes pride in building trusted relationships with clients and contributing to high-performing, collaborative teams that deliver strong outcomes in high-stakes environments.
Outside of work, Harrison is a passionate sports fan. Cricket and AFL are firm favourites, and as a long-suffering (and proudly tragic) Melbourne Demons supporter, he is always ready to talk football. He enjoys watching almost any sport, from snooker to lawn bowls, and values time spent at the beach to unwind.
