• Transfer Pricing & Intercompany: Support transfer pricing documentation and intercompany charge calculations, partnering with Accounting to ensure intercompany transactions are properly recorded and settled.
• Audits & Notices: Serve as the primary point of contact for tax notices, inquiries, and audits; gather support and coordinate responses with advisors and taxing authorities.
• Tax Accounting & Close: Prepare and review tax-related journal entries, account reconciliations, and accruals as part of the month-end and year-end close.

Treasury

• Cash Management: Monitor daily cash positions across global bank accounts and execute funding, intercompany transfers, and payments in line with approval policies.
• Banking Administration: Manage bank relationships and account administration, including account openings/closures, KYC requests, signatory updates, and bank portal access.
• Process Improvement: Identify opportunities to automate and streamline tax and treasury workflows within NetSuite, banking platforms, and tax engines; maintain SOPs.

• Experience: 3+ years of progressive tax experience in public accounting (Big 4 or national firm preferred) and/or corporate tax within a multinational company; 5+ years for Manager-level candidates.
• Technical Tax Knowledge: Working knowledge of ASC 740, U.S. federal and multistate corporate income tax, and indirect tax (sales & use, VAT/GST).
• Treasury Exposure: Hands-on experience with, or strong interest in, cash management and banking operations.
• Education: Bachelor’s degree in Accounting, Finance, or a related field.
• Analytical Skills: Highly organized and detail-oriented, with the ability to manage multiple deadlines and work independently with minimal supervision.
• Communication & Collaboration: Clear written and verbal communication; able to explain tax and cash matters to non-tax stakeholders and manage external advisors effectively.

Desirable Skills & Experience

• Certifications: CPA (or actively pursuing); MST, or CTP (Certified Treasury Professional) a plus.
• International Tax: Exposure to U.S. international tax concepts (e.g., GILTI, FDII) and multinational structures; familiarity with emerging areas such as Pillar Two is a plus.
