This is a builder’s role, not a care taker’s, with responsibility for the US team, managing all aspects of US tax, reporting to Global Senior Director of tax with a focus on risk, value add, accounting and compliance. You’ll partner with business unit leaders, shared services, and international tax teams to deliver commercially-minded solutions — while shaping the team, technology, and processes that will scale with us.
If you’re energized by the chance to design rather than maintain — and you want your work to influence how a global business operates — we’d like to talk.

Build, mentor, and scale a team of circa 10 in US, driving continuous improvement, professional development, and alignment with CSC core values.

Review quarterly S Corp shareholder distribution calculations and support shareholder relations.

Work closely with senior managers across US direct and indirect tax to ensure compliance, planning, and technical decisions land on time.
Advise senior leadership on the impact of new and proposed tax legislation and prepare the business for what’s coming.
Year one, you’ll :

Deliver a clean full-year provision and footnote under the new structure.
Build the playbook for S Corp shareholder distributions and reporting.
Partner with Tax Technology to scope and begin in-sourcing key compliance workstreams from external advisors.
Establish the internal relationships (BU finance, shared services, international tax) and external (advisors, auditors) — that the function will run on.
What you will bring :
Deep U.S. technical knowledge of corporate income tax and indirect tax for both C-Corps and S-Corps, paired with the drive to build.
10-15 years U.S. tax experience across industry and public accounting.
Bachelor's in accounting or (equivalent); CPA and master's a plus
Track record building and leading teams across global locations and designing processes that bring more work in-house from third parties.
