TL;DR · Indirect Tax Manager

The Indirect Tax Manager oversees U.S. sales and use tax compliance while coordinating VAT and GST obligations across a global entity portfolio. Working within the tax function, you will review multi-state filings for accuracy, manage audits and inquiries, and partner with external advisors to navigate complex jurisdictional requirements. You will collaborate with cross-functional teams in Engineering, Legal, and Procurement to integrate tax considerations into billing systems, ERP configurations, and new product initiatives. The role involves monitoring changes in nexus, e-invoicing, and reporting while maintaining SOX-aligned controls and process documentation. Key technical skills include experience with tax determination and ERP systems, specifically Avalara and NetSuite. You will manage multi-jurisdictional workstreams to solve complex compliance challenges, utilizing your expertise in international tax matters and automation to support a scalable global indirect tax infrastructure for the organization.

What you'll do

  • Review U.S. multi-state sales and use tax filings to ensure accuracy and alignment with nexus positions.
  • Manage U.S. sales and use tax audits, notices, and inquiries by coordinating documentation and external advisors.
  • Coordinate VAT/GST compliance and recovery activities across the global entity portfolio in EMEA, APAC, and LATAM.
  • Monitor changes in nexus, taxability, e-invoicing, and reporting requirements to communicate impacts to internal stakeholders.
  • Integrate indirect tax requirements into billing systems, ERP configurations, and new product initiatives with cross-functional teams.
  • Develop and maintain process documentation, audit-readiness materials, and SOX-aligned controls for a scalable tax function.

What we're looking for

  • Experience in progressive indirect tax roles within public accounting or an in-house tax function.
  • Knowledge of U.S. multi-state sales and use tax, including nexus analysis, taxability, compliance, and audit support.
  • Familiarity with international VAT/GST regimes and experience coordinating compliance across multiple jurisdictions.
  • Experience using tax determination and ERP systems, preferably Avalara and NetSuite.
  • Ability to manage concurrent workstreams and analyze detailed financial information in a fast-moving environment.
  • Strong communication skills to translate technical indirect tax matters for non-tax stakeholders.
  • Experience with tax automation, AI-enabled process improvements, or SOX environments is a plus.
  • Relevant professional certifications are considered a plus.
