  • Strong academic background and technical expertise in tax advisory and transactional support.
  • Commercial awareness and the ability to communicate complex tax issues in a clear and practical manner.
  • A proactive approach and the ability to work effectively in a fast-paced environment.

This role delivers a compelling opportunity for an ambitious tax lawyer seeking to further their career within a high-performing team, gaining exposure to sophisticated and multi-jurisdictional transactions. A full US Salary / Bonus (Cravath scale) offered.
