**About A&M Global Capability Center Private Limited**:
In 2023, A&M established a high-quality global capability center in India. The capability center has dedicated centers of expertise which work with A&M leadership across multiple business units and geographies to enable efficient service delivery to A&M clients.

The GCC is designed to efficiently and innovatively scale client delivery teams to meet ongoing demands. It helps A&M's global business units expand their talent pool in India, allowing them to hire specialized professionals, maintain competitive pricing, accelerate delivery speeds with a hybrid onshore-offshore team, and leverage automation with top-tier digital and analytics talent. The GCC blends industry and consulting professionals across multiple domains to drive change and add value.

Unlike traditional GCC models focused on back-office support, we partner with case teams for end-to-end case delivery and thought leadership. Nearly 90% of our consultants hold advanced degrees, and our leadership team boasts over 1000 years of combined experience. We serve all major markets, including the Americas, EMEA, and APAC, and work across various industries such as Consumer & Retail, Healthcare, Software & Technology, Automotive & Industrials, Hospitality & Leisure, Energy & Natural Resources, and Financial Services.

As we embark on this unique journey, the firm is actively seeking to build a strong, capable team for the center. The GCC is growing rapidly and is already a 600+ member team.

**The Team**:
A&M’s Global Tax Provision practice is a specialized team within our global Tax offering, providing deep technical expertise on complex income tax accounting (ASC 740, IAS 12) to multinational clients. Operating as a strategic hub from India, we leverage a follow-the-sun model to deliver integrated round-the-clock support to A&M teams and clients across the Americas, EMEA, and APAC.

Our professionals are critical resources for the most challenging provision preparation, review, and advisory needs, particularly for clients undergoing transformative events like mergers, acquisitions, and restructuring. We provide essential support on high-stakes matters including financial reporting, tax controversy, SOX compliance, and the implementation of global tax reforms such as Pillar Two. This offers a unique entrepreneurial opportunity to work at the intersection of accounting, tax law, and business strategy on a global scale.

**How you will contribute**:
As an Associate in our Global Tax Provision practice, you will have the unique opportunity to dive into complex, high-stakes projects for a diverse portfolio of multinational clients and private equity firms. You will be at the forefront of major business transformations—like Pillar Two reform—gaining unparalleled exposure to the strategic intersection of accounting, tax law, and business strategy

You will partner directly with our seasoned international teams and clients, playing a key role in delivering clarity and confidence during their most critical moments. This is a hands-on, entrepreneurial opportunity to accelerate your expertise in ASC 740 and IAS 12, leverage cutting-edge tax technology, and see the direct impact of your work on global business decisions.

We are looking for energetic professionals who are driven by challenge, think on a global scale, and are ready to roll up their sleeves to help build a premier global capability center from the ground up.
