- Evaluate tax accruals and related journal entries to support accurate financial reporting and compliance with internal standards.
- Make well-reasoned taxability determinations on transactions and filing positions, escalating only when issues require broader review.
- Provide day-to-day technical guidance to tax staff, helping strengthen the quality and consistency of compliance work.
- Support administrative and operational tasks that keep the indirect tax function running efficiently throughout the reporting cycle.
- Assist with process adjustments tied to team transition needs while maintaining continuity in compliance execution and deadline management.
