Expert Tax Counsel

We need to output HTML fragment with sections: About the role? Actually the posting includes "About You And This The Role" but we need to use headings like About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. We must only include sections where there is real specific content. The posting includes responsibilities, required qualifications, preferred qualifications, skills, benefits, pay (Illinois pay range). No schedule info. So we should include sections: About the role? There's a paragraph describing role: "Dow is seeking an Expert Tax Counsel...". That could be considered About the role. We'll include

About the role

with that paragraph. Responsibilities: list of bullet points. We'll convert each bullet to

• . Requirements: maybe combine Required Qualifications? The instruction says use headings Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. We have Required Qualifications and Preferred Qualifications. Could put them under Qualifications heading (maybe separate sub-sections? but only headings allowed). We could put Required Qualifications under Qualifications, and maybe Preferred Qualifications also under Qualifications? But we need to preserve all info. Could split: Required Qualifications as

  Qualifications

  and then list required and preferred as separate
  maybe with headings inside? But we cannot add extra headings not in list. Could embed paragraphs describing required and preferred. Use

  for prose. Could list required qualifications as

  • ... etc. Then after that a paragraph for preferred qualifications. That's okay. Skills: list. Benefits: list. Pay: include the pay range paragraph. Schedule: none, so omit. We must not include boilerplate like EEO etc. Remove all that. We must not repeat job title as heading. We must not include Job ID etc. We must output only HTML fragment. Let's craft. First, About the role paragraph: combine the introductory paragraphs about Dow and role? The instruction: "Do NOT repeat the job title as a heading (the page already shows it)". The posting starts with a fluff about Dow mission etc. That's not specific to role but could be considered About the role? Might be considered boilerplate? It's generic company description. Might be considered not substantive for role? However they said preserve ALL substantive information; do NOT invent or summarize away detail. The fluff about Dow mission is substantive? It's generic but still part of posting. However they said remove cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning boilerplate, duplicated lines, and application instructions. The mission statement might be considered boilerplate? Not sure. Safer to include a short paragraph about the role: "Dow is seeking an Expert Tax Counsel to join its Tax Department and serve as a versatile, high-caliber legal and business adviser across a wide range of areas." plus maybe the sentence about reporting line and location. We'll include that. Let's extract: About the role paragraph: "Dow is seeking an Expert Tax Counsel to join its Tax Department and serve as a versatile, high-caliber legal and business adviser across a wide range of areas. In this role, you will support and, in many cases, take direct ownership of matters spanning tax planning and M&A, audit defense and tax controversy, tax legal research, credits & incentives, and contract review and drafting. This role offers a meaningful runway for professional growth and increasing responsibility within Dow’s tax organization. You will report to the Managing Counsel for Global Tax, who serves as Dow’s lead tax attorney and reports to the Chief Tax Officer. This position can be located in Midland, MI, Houston, TX, or virtual office in the Chicago or Detroit areas." That's good. Now Responsibilities: list each bullet. We need to parse responsibilities section: - M&A and Tax Planning Advisory: Assist with the tax structuring and legal analysis of mergers, acquisitions, divestitures, joint ventures, and internal reorganizations and restructuring transactions. Support due diligence, review and draft transaction documents, and advise on post-closing integration matters. - Tax Controversy and Audit Defense: Lead and support on audit defense and controversy matters across federal, state, local, and indirect tax areas. This includes researching and responding to Information Document Requests (IDRs) and Notices of Proposed Adjustment (NOPAs) and supporting or drafting protests, refund claims, and similar submissions. Coordinate with outside counsel on administrative appeals and litigation matters as needed. - Contract Review & Commercial Advisory: Review and advise on tax-related provisions in a wide array of commercial agreements—including sales agreements, joint venture agreements, service contracts, licensing arrangements, and intercompany agreements—and ensure appropriate treatment of tax indemnification, cost allocation, gross-up provisions, and withholding obligations. - Tax Legal Research & Memoranda: Conduct detailed legal research on discrete federal, state, local, and international tax questions. Draft technical memoranda documenting and supporting the company’s tax positions consistent with internal governance standards. - Credits & Incentives: Assist in identifying, analyzing, and maintaining compliance with federal, state, local, and energy-related tax credits and incentives aligned with Dow’s investment strategy, including eligibility analysis and documentation support. - Cross-Functional Collaboration: Partner within the Tax Department across the Tax Operations and Accounting teams and across Dow’s businesses and other functions, including Legal, M&A, Controllers, Treasury, Finance, and Government Affairs to integrate tax considerations into business planning and decision-making across the enterprise.
