We are looking for a Senior Associate to join our Commercial Disputes Expert Services team in Amsterdam. In this role you’ll work closely with lawyers to assist in the resolution of disputes, and, where appropriate, working closely with teams within the firm providing specialist advice to companies. This means a wide and varied exposure for you to be able to develop and gain further skills in areas such as complex litigation and disputes including valuation and quantifying damages, insolvency investigations, determining contract disputes (e.g., post M&A) or providing commercial and strategic advice.
Day-to-day responsibilities:
As a Senior Associate, you will gain unparalleled exposure to significant, high-profile projects relating to disputes matters, often working closely with colleagues in different business units or jurisdictions. In addition, your career and development opportunities are vast with exposure to clients and lawyers from day one.

- Assisting with the drafting of expert witness reports.
- Assisting directors or managing directors during a court or tribunal hearing.
- Building client relationships, identifying, and sourcing new work, and new product development.

- Although strongly familiarized with finance and valuation, preferably you have an external audit background, or alternatively forensic accounting / transaction services / other accounting experience.
- Excellent report writing skills, in Dutch and English (any other language welcomed)
- The ability to explain complex, technical issues in an understandable manner.
- A logical and methodical approach to problem solving, as well as being able to develop innovative solutions to complex problems.
