We operate globally from offices in Boston, New York City, San Francisco, Seattle, Washington, D.C., London, Dubai, and Bengaluru.

You are expected to own analytical workstreams, adapt quickly across problem types, and synthesize insights for high-stakes decision-making.

Keystone teams are interdisciplinary, and you will work across a wide range of problems and practice areas. With a background in Finance, Economics, Tax and Securities (FETS), you focus on financial valuation, and market-based analyses, often in litigation, transaction, or strategy contexts.
