Job Description:

Associate/ Senior Associate, Private Client Services

Alvarez & Marsal Taxand, LLC is currently looking for a Tax Associate or Senior Associate to join our Private Client Services tax practice. Our Private Client Services practice works with private companies, their owners, and other domestic and international high net worth individuals, serving as their advisor, advocate, teammate, and partner. Our Private Client Services practice develops trusted relationships with client personnel and collaborates with clients to compile project information and resolve issues. We are dedicated to helping our clients achieve their long-term goals by delivering highly personalized solutions that suit their unique needs.

What will you be doing?

As a Tax Associate or Senior Associate for the Private Client Services team, you will focus on providing tax and consulting services to high net worth individuals in the areas of individual income tax, wealth transfer and succession planning, and international tax.
