In this capacity, you can expect to work in a collaborative environment that encourages ownership, critical thinking, continuous improvement, and professional growth as well as opportunities to enhance your technical transfer pricing skills, business acumen, and tax technology skills. This is a rare opportunity for a motivated professional seeking to accelerate his or her TP career, deepen their technical expertise, broaden their business perspective, and work closely with an experienced leader committed to your coaching and development.

Equally important, this role will also work on direct tax matters and reports to Supervisor Tax. He or she will have exposure and responsibility for preparing and filing Tax Returns, preparing and posting USGAAP tax balances and supporting audits.
