About Cornerstone Research
Cornerstone Research is a leading economic and financial consulting firm that provides expert testimony in complex disputes and regulatory investigations. Our team of specialists in highly technical areas of economics, finance, behavioral science, and technology offers clients cutting-edge analysis and greater efficiency by applying their depth of knowledge precisely where needed on complex cases.
The Valuation Specialist Role
We are recruiting a Valuation Specialist (Senior Manager or Principal level) to conduct robust, efficient, state-of-the-art valuation analyses in high-profile litigation cases. The specialist will be a technical expert with substantial knowledge of a range of valuation methodologies and related technical issues, and significant experience in the use of these methods in detailed, nuanced applications.
Responsibilities
- Provide analytical thought leadership, leading teams in brainstorming, designing, and implementing valuation models in high-profile litigation cases.
- Develop innovative, robust implementations, working with teams to ensure that methods are efficiently and robustly implemented, and to continually improve implementations within projects and across the firm.
- Be a critical reviewer and trusted advisor, acting as an advisor across multiple cases, reviewing work to ensure consistency and accuracy, and providing holistic big picture reviews to ensure consistency of assumptions and realism of results.
- Engage in firm- and practice-building, playing a key role in helping develop the practice area, including conducting training, developing knowledge base materials, working on research projects, and creating public materials to demonstrate our thought leadership.
Qualifications
- A deep foundational knowledge of common valuation methodologies (e.g. DCF, comparable companies and precedent transactions analyses) and related technical issues (e.g. cost of capital estimation, cross-border valuation, treatment of tax assets).
- An understanding of more specialized methodologies, such as real options valuation.
- Five or more years of experience in detailed, nuanced application of these methods. Litigation (in particular, Delaware Chancery Court) experience is preferred, but not required.
- A related advanced degree and background, for example a Finance PhD with a strong training in Accounting, or an Economics degree with an MBA.
What We Offer
Cornerstone Research provides a market-leading compensation and benefits package. The base salary for the Valuation Specialist ranges from $297,500 to $325,000. In addition to the base salary, Valuation Specialists will be eligible for a signing bonus depending on skills, education, and experience. Valuation Specialists are eligible for discretionary bonuses based on performance, firm contributions, and other factors.
