• Deliver a clean full-year provision and footnote under the new structure.
• Build the playbook for S Corp shareholder distributions and reporting.
• Partner with Tax Technology to scope and begin in-sourcing key compliance workstreams from external advisors.
• Establish the internal relationships (BU finance, shared services, international tax) and external (advisors, auditors) - that the function will run on.

What you will bring:

• Deep U.S. technical knowledge of corporate income tax and indirect tax for both C-Corps and S-Corps, paired with the drive to build.
• 10-15 years U.S. tax experience across industry and public accounting.
• Bachelor's in accounting or (equivalent); CPA and master's a plus

• Strong accounting and analytical skills, detail-oriented and able to manage competing priorities.
