Our client is a top flight international firm with roots outside of New York but a very strong presence in New York as well. In the process of sourcing M&A partner laterals for this client, it has become obvious that there is an acute need at the firm for additional transactional tax support. This is a group that is close-knit, with a strong PE following among middle-market players. Compensation at this firm has been very good for lateral partners, because the firm pays a percentage of portable book as bonuses, and is willing to define the bonus targets in advance. This raises one critical and unusual element regarding this firm, though: they require some client following, even among tax partners.  This position should be of interest to you if you have a tax background and you have been able to parlay the deal-making capacity of a partner who is connected, has strong interpersonal skills, and you have an entrepreneurial spirit. With this team, you will serve corporate/transactional partners who are accustomed to sharing credit. For the right person, at the right stage of her or his career, this is a position that could allow her/him to grow a nascent client following into something much larger, while working on varied and interesting deals. The pay for this position will be between $650,000 and $1.25 million.

We are constrained in our ability to gush details about the position absent a personal discussion with potential lateral candidates, so please forgive the deliberate vagueness of the description above and, if you loosely believe this may be a fit for you, email . We will give you a much more detailed description of what this opportunity could mean for you.
