Associate - Executive Comp & Benefits (Senior)

Advocates Legal Recruiting

Senior Associate – Executive Compensation & Benefits

A top-tier AmLaw 100 firm is expanding its Executive Compensation & Benefits team. With openings in multiple offices including Boston, Chicago and DC, this is a prime opportunity to step into a high-caliber practice advising across compensation disclosure, transactional benefits, and the regulatory landscape that surrounds them.

The Role

This Senior Associate role centers on advising corporate clients through complex executive comp and benefits issues in M&A, IPOs, spin-offs, and governance planning. The work spans tax, securities, ERISA, and labor law intersections, in tandem with a sophisticated, cross-office transactional team.

What We're Looking For

5+ years of experience focused on executive compensation and employee benefits

Strong track record representing public companies and/or advising on compensation disclosure

Experience managing complex transactions, equity and incentive plan design, 280G analysis, and related tax and securities issues

Practical understanding of business realities and a solutions-oriented approach

Why This Role

This team sits within one of the most respected tax departments in the country, with nationally ranked strength in executive compensation. Associates are entrusted with meaningful responsibility early, benefit from true cross-office collaboration, and work at the heart of market-shaping deals. The platform supports long-term career growth without locking you into a narrow lane.
