Senior Tax Accountant

We need to output HTML fragment with sections: About the role? Actually the posting includes "About ETS" description, then description of role. We need to use

for section headings: e.g., About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. We should include sections only when posting has real specific content. We have content about role responsibilities (Key Responsibilities). We have "People Management" (no direct reports). We have "Position Specifications — Other Requirements" (requirements). We have "Competency: Expected Level" (qualifications/skills). There's no explicit Benefits, Pay, Schedule. So we should not include those sections. We need to preserve all substantive info, not invent. Remove boilerplate like About ETS? That's about the organization; it's substantive? It's description of ETS. Could be considered "About the role"? Actually "About ETS" is about company, not role. The instruction: use headings for section headings (About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). So we should map content accordingly. We have "About ETS" which is about the organization; maybe we can put under "About the role"? But that heading is for role description. However we could treat "About ETS" as part of role description (company overview). It's substantive. We'll include an

About the role

and put the ETS description there. Then Responsibilities: we have "Key Responsibilities" bullet list. We'll output

Responsibilities

with

• each bullet. Then Requirements: we have "Position Specifications — Other Requirements" list. We'll output

  Requirements

  with list. Then Qualifications/Skills: we have "Competency: Expected Level" which includes Functional & Technical Acumen Expertise, Technology & Data Fluency Expertise, End to End ETS Understanding Proficiency, Results Orientation Expertise, Market Insight & Service Orientation Proficiency. Those are like qualifications/skills. We'll put under

  Qualifications

  maybe also Skills. But we have both headings possible. Since we have content that maps to qualifications/skills, we could combine into one section Qualifications (or Skills). The instruction: prefer few substantive sections over many thin ones. So we can combine Qualifications and Skills into one heading, maybe "Qualifications". Or we could have both if distinct. But we have only one block; better to use "Qualifications". We'll output

  Qualifications

  with list. We must not repeat job title as heading. No Job ID. We must not include Pay/Benefits/Schedule sections. We must output only HTML fragment. Let's extract the responsibilities bullets precisely. From text: "Key Responsibilities Serve as the primary support for U.S. indirect tax filings — sales and use, gross receipts, and excise.

That's a long paragraph; we need to split into list items. The original likely had bullet points but got merged. We need to preserve all substantive information; we can split by sentences that start with a verb? Better to keep as one
• per responsibility as they appear separated by periods? But we need to avoid losing detail. Could create multiple
• each covering a distinct responsibility. Let's attempt to parse: 1. Serve as the primary support for U.S. indirect tax filings — sales and use, gross receipts, and excise. Prepare returns, reconciliations, and liability account roll-forwards; maintain exemption and resale certificates, registrations, and nexus tracking; and resolve routine filing and payment issues, escalating exceptions to the Tax Manager. 2. Coordinate with the India GCC team on Vertex as it relates to U.S. indirect taxes. Intake and validate monthly rate and rule content updates, prepare and submit rate change specifications, review taxability mapping Changes, and work with Vertex Leader in India to facilitate and test these changes. Changes are submitted to the Vertex Leader in India for approval before they reach production. 3. Work with Vertex Leader in India to maintain the Vertex change record for U.S. indirect tax — what changed, who requested it, what testing was performed, and the approval obtained — and validate determination output against source transactions on a recurring basis, investigating variances with the India GCC team and Information Technology and escalating any filing or exposure risk to the Tax Manager. 4. Support federal, state, and local income and franchise tax compliance for ETS’s taxable subsidiaries. Prepare returns, apportionment schedules, estimated payments, extensions, and supporting workpapers for Tax Manager review. 5. Support exempt-organization compliance for the parent and affiliated exempt entities. Prepare Forms 990, 990-T with a separate Schedule A for each unrelated trade or business under Section 512(a)(6), and state charitable registration and UBIT filings, including required disclosures, attachments, and supporting schedules. 6. Support the annual and interim income tax provision under ASC 740. Prepare current and deferred computations, deferred tax inventory roll-forwards, income tax rate reconciliation and income-taxes-paid and payable reconciliation and support for external auditor review. 7. Support the preparation of tax accruals, budgets, forecasts, and cash tax projections, and prepare the tax account reconciliations and roll-forwards on which they depend. 8. Support responses to IRS, state, and local tax authority notices, information document requests, and audits — including sales and use tax audits and the sampling and transaction detail they require. Gather and organize the data and draft responses for Tax Manager review. 9. Perform tax research on assigned indirect, federal, state, and exempt-organization questions and draft technical memoranda documenting the analysis and authoritative support. Recommendations are submitted to the Tax Manager, who determines the position taken. 10. Track federal, state, exempt-organization, and indirect tax legislative and regulatory developments, and summarize the potential impact on ETS for the Tax Manager. 11. Prepare information reporting filings (Forms 1099 and 1042-S), property tax, and unclaimed property filings, and assist with foreign information returns and transfer pricing documentation. 12. Maintain the compliance calendar and filing status tracking across all return types, keep process documentation and review evidence current, and escalate any risk to a filing deadline early. 13. Support automation and process improvement. Build and maintain repeatable data pipelines, reconciliations, and recurring reporting using AI and analytics tooling, and identify recurring tasks that are candidates for automation or for transition to the India GCC team. 14. Handle routine data requests and deliverable timing with external advisors and co-sourcing providers, and partner with Finance and business teams to obtain source data and understand transactions and new offerings. That seems comprehensive. Now Requirements: "Position Specifications — Other Requirements" list: - Ability to write a clear, unambiguous change specification and to test what comes back rather than assume it is correct. - Ability to work effectively with a remote team across time zones, including planning work so that handoffs do not create idle days. - Ability to work with both for-profit and not-for-profit tax rules and to ask which framework applies when it is not obvious. - Strong written and oral communication skills, with the ability to explain a computation, a system behavior, or a data request clearly to non-tax colleagues. - Strong analytical and quantitative skills, attention to detail, and the discipline to reconcile before submitting work for review. - Ability to prioritize across a multi-entity, multi-jurisdictional compliance calendar and to raise conflicts early rather than absorb them. - Judgment about what to escalate and what to resolve independently, and willingness to escalate rather than assume authority the position does not hold. - Willingness to take direction and rework, and to use review comments to build technical depth. - Sound professional judgment regarding the appropriate use, verification, and documentation of AI-assisted work product. - Commitment to ETS’s data privacy, information security, and records retention obligations. Now Qualifications/Competency: "Competency: Expected Level" includes: - Functional & Technical Acumen Expertise: able to do and explain the work independently within the specific domain, and to recognize when a matter requires the Tax Manager’s judgment. - Technology & Data Fluency Expertise: uses tax technology, data preparation, analytics, and AI tooling hands-on to execute and improve recurring tax processes. - End to End ETS Understanding Proficiency: understands how the position’s work connects to the broader tax function and to the business units it supports. - Results Orientation Expertise: plans and sequences work to meet committed deadlines, and raises obstacles early enough to be resolved. - Market Insight & Service Orientation Proficiency: responds to internal stakeh (cut off). The text ends abruptly: "Market Insight & Service Orientation Proficiency: responds to internal stakeh". Probably incomplete due to cutoff. We need to preserve what we have. It says "responds to internal stakeh". Likely "stakeholders". We'll keep as is. We'll output as list items.
