    • Identify and resolve inconsistencies proactively as inputs evolve or results do not align with expectations
    • Validate that models and processes continue to function correctly as the business scales
  • Team Leadership & Collaboration
    • Mentor and develop a Senior Tax Analyst, providing guidance on both technical work and review approach
    • Manage timelines, deliverables, and communication with the Global Tax Accounting team
    • Partner with the U.S. Compliance team to provide technical guidance and review on U.S. tax filings and estimated tax payments
    • Collaborate with SALT and U.S. International Tax teams, as well as other stakeholders

    • Liaise with and manage external advisors to ensure timely and effective tax support
    • Support tax audits and related documentation
    • Prepare reconciliations and analyses as needed

Basic Qualifications
