The opportunity: your next adventure awaits
Our clients turn to our International Tax and Transaction Services (ITTS) - Transaction Tax Advisory (TTA) team to understand and plan for the complex challenges that arise throughout acquisitions, disposals, refinancing, restructuring and public offerings. In response, we've developed a highly collaborative team of subject-matter professionals, spanning borders and industries to stay ahead of the curve in a rapidly moving market. Everything we do is focused on helping our clients make the right choices, and as a TTA Staff Associate, you'll play a key part in achieving that goal.
You'll be given a number of responsibilities, so you can expect to be constantly learning and growing in this role. Right from the start you'll be exposed to the entire transaction process, often working across service lines to deliver tailored tax consulting services. On top of this, with both formal and on-the-job training, you'll learn globally relevant technical and tax skills while improving your personal and client-handling experience. And as a member of the TTA team, you will have the opportunity to work closely with highly-trained subject-matter professionals who are top of their fields.
You're likely to spend your time across a portfolio of projects, so the ability to prioritize under tight deadlines will be important. With a focus on supporting colleagues from a substantive perspective, an average week might include assisting with proposals, monitoring engagement economics, assessing individual engagements' risks, reviewing various financial and tax documents, participating on calls and drafting deliverables. There's a lot to learn in this area; but with plenty of support you'll quickly become a trusted tax professional, with a rare understanding of how businesses worldwide relate to tax.

• Research complex tax issues and drafting technical documents and presentations, while providing authoritative tax findings to managers, senior managers, partners and clients
What we look for
• You have an agile, growth-oriented mindset. What you know matters. But the right mindset is just as important in determining success. We're looking for people who are innovative, can work in an agile way and keep pace with a rapidly changing world.
• You are curious and purpose driven. We're looking for people who see opportunities instead of challenges, who ask better questions to seek better answers that build a better working world.
• You are inclusive. We're looking for people who seek out and embrace diverse perspectives, who value differences, and team inclusively to build safety and trust.
• Qualifications.
- A degree in Accounting, Finance, Economics or a related discipline, with progress towards an LLM in Taxation or JD or Master of Taxation
- A high-level of self-motivation to work and learn both independently and as part of a highly collaborative team
- The time management skills to prioritize effectively when working on multiple complex projects

What's in it for you
• Accelerate your technical capabilities and transformative leadership skills with future-focused courses and development programs.
• Broaden your horizons by working on highly integrated teams across the globe and collaborate with people of diverse backgrounds - both professionally and culturally.
• Bring out the best in yourself with continuous investment in your personal well-being and career development.
• Develop your own personal purpose and help us create a positive ripple effect on our teams, our business, clients and society - building a better working world, together.
• A competitive compensation package where you'll be rewarded based on your performance and recognized for the value you bring to our business. In addition, our Total Rewards package includes medical and dental coverage, pension and 401(k) plans, and a wide range of paid time off options. Under our flexible vacation policy, you'll decide how much vacation time you need based on your own personal circumstances. You'll also be granted time off for designated EY Paid Holidays, Winter/Summer breaks, Personal/Family Care, and other leaves of absence when needed to support your physical, financial, and emotional well-being.
What you can expect
• Our approach to hiring utilizes several different formats throughout the course of the recruiting process.
• In addition to speaking with our recruiters and client-serving professionals, we also leverage game-based assessments to assess your non-technical skills and attributes in a quick and engaging experience. This includes your collaboration style and your abilities to work with information and the use of pre-recorded video interviews (PRVI). PRVI technology provides a great opportunity for you to share more about your qualifications and interests, as well as to ask more specifics about EY and the role for
which you are interviewing. It also provides you with the flexibility and convenience of completing at a time and place that works best for your schedule.
• Additional interviews may be in the form of a live interview, either via video or in-person.
