  • 5+ years of experience in mergers and acquisitions tax, transaction tax, federal income tax, or corporate tax
  • Experience performing tax due diligence and structuring analysis for acquisitions, divestitures, carve-outs, or financing transactions
  • Demonstrated ability to review transaction documents, legal entity structures, and purchase agreement provisions across at least 3 transactions to identify tax implications, risks, and planning opportunities

The wage range for this role takes into account the wide range of factors that are considered in making compensation decisions including but not limited to skill sets; experience and training; licensure and certifications; and other business and organizational needs. The disclosed range estimate has not been adjusted for the applicable geographic differential associated with the location at which the position may be filled. At Deloitte, it is not typical for an individual to be hired at or near the top of the range for their role and compensation decisions are dependent on the facts and circumstances of each case. A reasonable estimate of the current range is $141,150 to $288,375.

You may also be eligible to participate in a discretionary annual incentive program, subject to the rules governing the program, whereby an award, if any, depends on various factors, including, without limitation, individual and organizational performance.
