Would you like to benefit from a flexible schedule and multiple fringe benefits? Our client, a firm specializing in the professional services industry, is looking for a Senior Director of Taxation to join their team of open and competent professionals. You will report directly to the President, who is energetic, open-minded, enjoys being presented with solutions, and is very attentive. She is the complete opposite of a micro-manager and champions teamwork. Cielo has a great reputation within the company for having placed two talents who are now VPs, including one partner. Our president has known an associate in place for over 20 years who is very 'sharp.' You will work in a positive, multidisciplinary environment where teamwork is a key value. The position is offered on a hybrid basis.
As Senior Director of Taxation, you will be responsible for developing tax planning strategies and drafting memorandums, reviewing various tax forms (rollover, sales tax forms, etc.), managing tax audit files, and drafting representations to tax authorities. Additionally, you will be the go-to reference for internal staff, as you will manage, train, and support a team, as well as follow up with team members regarding the impact of reorganizations on their files, ensuring compliance with deadlines. You will also have the opportunity to participate in special mandates (business acquisitions, sales, real estate purchase projects, expansion projects, etc.) and assign certain aspects of special mandates to internal staff, as needed. Furthermore, you will manage tax audit files, draft representations to tax authorities, distribute compliance files among internal staff (if required), and support the tax staff in terms of training and mentorship. You will also provide advice on tax improvements and analyze internal practices and processes to implement necessary improvements to increase the department’s and team’s organizational efficiency. You will have the opportunity to build a strong network of contacts, as you will be in contact with clients regarding their tax files as well as with the entire team and partners.
