  • Lead state and local audits, notices, and inquiries; prepare responses and negotiate issue resolution.
  • Perform periodic nexus studies to assess exposure and ensure appropriate filings and registrations.
  • Analyze and improve SALT processes (close, compliance calendar, documentation); drive repeatable workflows and internal controls.
  • Recommend automation/technology enhancements (e.g., data pipelines, tax engines/reporting tools) to increase scale, speed, and accuracy.
  • Review both internally and externally prepared tax filings; manage timelines across cross-functional shareholders.
  • Partner with internal teams such as Legal, Sales, Operations, and Finance to understand the tax implications of various business activities and transactions.

What You'll Bring
  • CPA Required
  • Corporate in-house experience at a multi-entity, multi-state company; Big 4 background a plus
