- Partner with Legal and Treasury to draft, execute and maintain intercompany agreements that align with corporate tax structure and support cash management and debt refinancing.
- Assist the APAC-based Senior Manager of Tax Accounting with quarterly and annual ASC 740 income tax provision processes for APAC legal entities, including current and deferred taxes, valuation allowances and uncertain tax positions (FIN 48).
- Support the oversight of timely, accurate direct tax return filings and disclosures for local statutory audits across all APAC jurisdictions.
- Act as a key resource in responding to direct tax and transfer pricing audits and inquiries from regional tax authorities to defend tax positions.
- Monitor global tax legislation, including OECD BEPS 2.0 (Pillar One and Pillar Two) and regional transfer pricing regulations, to maintain proactive forward-looking compliance.
What you'll bring
Required qualifications
- Minimum 10 years of corporate tax experience within a multinational enterprise or Big 4 firm, with heavy technical emphasis on Transfer Pricing and APAC regional direct tax.
