Engage with prospective clients to identify tax opportunities and demonstrate our firm’s value proposition.
Provide technical leadership in a dynamic role with high visibility across the firm and external stakeholders.
Monitor tax law changes and provide guidance on implications for client portfolios.
Serve as a subject matter expert for internal teams and client presentations.

What You Need
