ABOUT Our Damages & Valuations team

Our Damages & Valuations team sits at the intersection of finance, data, strategy, and the law. We help clients answer high-stakes questions when businesses, investors, and legal teams need to understand what something is worth, how much money may have been lost, and what the financial evidence really shows. Our work supports complex disputes, arbitration matters, and business challenges around the world—giving team members exposure to real-world problems where their analysis can directly influence important decisions.

As part of this team, you will collaborate with accountants, economists, PhDs, business valuation experts, investment analysts, and industry specialists to investigate complex issues, analyze data, and translate financial information into clear, persuasive insights. It is challenging, fast-moving work that helps early-career professionals build consulting skills quickly, learn from recognized experts, and see how their work connects to major business and legal outcomes. The team’s work is highly regarded: Secretariat was ranked #1 in Global Arbitration Review’s Expert Witness Firm Power Index in 2024 and 2025, and more than 90% of our testifying experts are recognized as leading experts by Who's Who Legal.

RESPONSIBILITIES

In this role, you will be part of a growing domestic and international practice where strong analytical thinking, curiosity, creativity, and clear communication are essential. Associates are actively involved in meaningful project work from the start—helping the team uncover facts, analyze financial information, and develop insights that support high-stakes client matters.

  • Dig into case documents, research materials, and discovery records to understand the facts behind complex disputes
  • Analyze financial statements, business records, market data, and other evidence to help quantify damages and support valuation work
  • Build models, organize data, and develop analyses that help explain financial issues clearly and accurately
  • Contribute to reports, presentations, and client-ready materials that turn detailed analysis into compelling insights
  • Work closely with senior consultants and experts, gaining hands-on experience in litigation support, valuation, damages analysis, and economic consulting

This is a great opportunity for someone who enjoys solving puzzles, working with numbers, asking thoughtful questions, and learning how financial analysis can make a real impact in business and legal settings. The ideal candidate is coachable, intellectually curious, detail-oriented, and excited to grow in a collaborative consulting environment.

QUALIFICATIONS

  • Comfort working with data, conducting research, organizing information clearly, and using emerging tools, including AI, to improve efficiency, quality, and analytical rigor
  • Strong attention to detail, organization, and follow-through, with the ability to balance multiple assignments and communicate proactively

Voluntary Self-Identification of Disability

Form CC-305
Page 1 of 1
OMB Control Number 1250-0005
Expires 07/31/2029

Why are you being asked to complete this form?

We are a federal contractor or subcontractor. The law requires us to provide equal employment opportunity to qualified people with disabilities. We have a goal of having at least 7% of our workers as people with disabilities. The law says we must measure our progress towards this goal. To do this, we must ask applicants and employees if they have a disability or have ever had one. People can become disabled, so we need to ask this question at least every five years.

Completing this form is voluntary, and we hope that you will choose to do so. Your answer is confidential. No one who makes hiring decisions will see it. Your decision to complete the form and your answer will not harm you in any way. If you want to learn more about the law or this form, visit the U.S. Department of Labor’s Office of Federal Contract Compliance Programs (OFCCP) website at www.dol.gov/ofccp.
