Are you interested in an impactful role at the intersection of tax, pensions/benefits and employment law that uses your legal skills but is broader than the practice of law?
Taxation of compensation and benefits (also known as executive compensation) is a fascinating area that draws upon skills from many disciplines. At EY, executive compensation is part of a broad- based service to clients which includes not only tax but also related strategic HR advice.

TYPES OF WORK YOU WILL BE DOING:

• Analysing the tax treatment of compensation and deferred income arrangements to ensure that they are compliant with applicable law;
• Advising on the treatment of compensation arrangements in the context of mergers and acquisitions;
• Advising on the tax treatment of cross border pension arrangements and non-resident trusts; and
• Assisting clients facing audits by the Canada Revenue Agency and provincial ministries of finance.

TO QUALIFY FOR THE ROLE YOU MUST HAVE:

• An LL.B, JD or equivalent;
• Minimum of 1 year post call experience in either taxation law, employment law, or pensions/benefits combined with an interest to specialize in taxation of compensation and benefits;
• Strong research and analytical skills, with the ability to apply these skills to a new environment and new projects;
• Excellent verbal and written communication skills.
