About the role

IRS Chief Counsel in the United States seeks a General Attorney (Tax) (Senior Counsel) – P&A to handle the most complex procedural tax matters, including filing returns, assessment and collection actions, FOIA, and bankruptcy procedures. You will plan, develop, and review high-stakes legal work products, providing guidance to staff and coordinating with IRS and Treasury colleagues. Strong research, drafting, and leadership skills are essential for this role.

Before you apply

Applying takes about a minute. These four things decide how fast it moves after that.

Your profile is current

It's what we read first. Occupations, seniority and locations matter more than a long history.

Two examples you can talk through

Not a portfolio — just two pieces of work where you can explain the decisions and what you'd change.

A number in mind

What you're on now and what would make you move. We negotiate better when we know both.

Your notice period

Employers plan around it, and it's the question that stalls offers most often.

Once you apply, someone reads it and calls you before anything reaches the employer — usually within two working days.
