Sydney Associate - Finance Focus

Description

We are looking for intellectually curious team players with strong quantitative skills to join our tightly knit, ambitious, and growing Sydney office. 

Associates work as part of a team on challenging and high-profile projects in a collegial and academically-oriented work environment. Brattle is large enough to be sought after to answer complex economic, regulatory, and financial questions for clients around the world. We are also small enough to provide our Associates with a variety of experiences and individualized development from our experts. Associates are central members of each project team. They regularly collaborate with senior consulting staff and leading industry experts to analyse complex matters such as asset valuation, energy market design, transfer pricing and tax controversies, securities litigation, and infrastructure access disputes.

Associates are responsible for framing research approaches, managing project teams, and developing client relationships while building individual expertise. As they gain valuable hands-on project experience, Associates also become more involved in marketing and business development efforts. The Brattle Group commits to continuous training and development for consultants and has a strong track record of developing Associates into Principals who often act as testifying experts.
