Assess and provide clear, practical guidance on the indirect tax implications of new products, customer contracts, and geographic expansion, translating tax requirements into business-focused recommendations and escalating complex matters for further review and external guidance.
Identify opportunities to improve compliance, reduce risk, and minimize tax leakage.

Identify and implement process improvements that enhance efficiency, strengthen controls, and improve reporting accuracy.
Partner with IT on system implementations, enhancements, and tax automation initiatives.
