About the Opportunity:
My client, one of the most established consumer products companies in the area, is looking to hire a Corporate Tax Manager. This is a highly visible seat inside a growing tax function that touches multiple business lines and entities across a large organization. If you love untangling complex tax structures, this role was built for you.

Expect real complexity, large data sets, and cross-functional exposure to accounting, finance, and business leaders across multiple divisions. This is a tax-focused role reporting into senior tax leadership, not a generalist finance seat.
It's a strong move for someone who wants more scope than a single-entity environment can offer, along with a direct line to strategic tax decisions. If you're ready to bring your SALT and provision expertise into a bigger, more dynamic structure, this is worth a serious look.

- Own preparation and review of federal and state corporate income tax filings across a multi-entity organization.
- Lead the ASC 740 tax provision process, including deferred tax analysis, effective tax rate calculations, and reconciliations.
- Partner directly with accounting and finance leaders across multiple business divisions to resolve complex tax questions.

- Serve as the primary point of contact for federal and state tax authority notices, inquiries, and audits.
- Coordinate with external CPA firm on technical positions and return preparation.
- Provide tax analysis supporting business forecasts, acquisitions, and other strategic initiatives.
