Associate - Tax (Energy & Infrastructure)

Associate Tax Energy & Infrastructure (2+ Years)

Associate Tax Energy & Infrastructure (2+ Years) (Transactional Tax | Multiple U.S. Offices)

Tax Associate | Energy & Infrastructure | AmLaw 100 Platform

Our AmLaw 100 client is looking to add a tax associate to its Energy & Infrastructure team. This group sits at the center of the energy transition and structures some of the most sophisticated power and renewable transactions in the market. If you want real exposure to tax equity, credit transfers, and headline energy deals, this is worth a look.

The Role

You will advise on financings and M&A involving power, renewables, and broader energy transition assets. The work includes:

• Structuring and negotiating tax equity transactions
• Drafting tax provisions in partnership agreements, credit agreements, and purchase agreements
• Advising on tax credit transfers and joint ventures
• Navigating partnership tax rules in complex project structures

You will work closely with project finance, M&A, and fund formation teams across offices.

Candidate Profile

2+ years of transactional tax experience

Background in energy, infrastructure, or project finance tax is strongly preferred

Experience with partnership structures and tax equity documentation

Comfortable taking ownership of discrete workstreams

This role is suited for a junior to mid-level associate who wants substantive responsibility in a practice that is growing alongside the energy market.

Why This Role

This is a nationally recognized tax platform with deep roots in federal tax policy and a strong bench of former government lawyers. The energy practice consistently handles first-of-their-kind renewable structures and complex cross-border investments. You will not be siloed. The team is lean, collaborative, and expects associates to engage directly with clients early. If you are in a tax group but not getting meaningful exposure to energy transition work, this is a strategic move.
