Hybrid schedule of 2 days/week in downtown Vancouver office.

Who- the Company:

Our client is a high-profile global publicly-listed company with operations in over 50 countries and over 10,000 employees. They have a reputation for hiring top talent and for providing their employees with interesting and challenging work in a professional environment. Swim Recruiting has been engaged to aid with this important search.

What- the Opportunity:

On behalf of our client, SWIM is looking a new Senior Tax Manager. The Sr Tax Manager will work directly with a tight-knit tax team, working with colleagues in Canadian tax, US tax, and EMEA tax, and reporting directly into the Vice-President, Tax. Given the very high retention and long tenures on this tax team, it’s rare for a role to open up at Senior Manager level.

The new Sr Tax Manager will have a senior role that is still hands-on and involved in actually producing high quality tax compliance work rather than delegating the work to external tax analysts.

This role will involve a tax compliance, including preparing and reviewing annual income tax provisions in accordance with US GAAP (ASC 740), drafting tax-related financial statement disclosures, including footnotes for public filings, implementing new tax accounting pronouncements, integrating tax planning strategies into the financial reporting processes, improving internal controls over financial reporting for income taxes, etc.

The Senior Tax Manager will use various tools and technologies, such as Excel, tax preparation software (such as OneSource and GoSystem), and a sophisticated ERP. There is great opportunity for steady long-term career growth with this company over the years! SWIM will provide qualified and interested candidates with a full job description.

Who- the Candidate:

• Candidates will have 7 years of relevant accounting & finance work experience in accounting & tax, including at least 4 years specializing deeply in tax.
• Experience with US GAAP and ASC740 is highly preferred.
• Experience with Pillar Two, CbCR, and GILTI is all highly preferred.
• Candidates must have Canadian CPA and/or US CPA designation.
• Training in a multinational accounting firm (such as PWC, KPMG, Deloitte, EY, etc.).
• A few years experience working in tax in industry is required, ideally with another global and publicly-listed company.
• Strong technical and systems skills are required, particularly within Excel (proficient with pivot tables, Index match, look-ups, etc) and tax preparation software.
• Strong tax research skills, with the ability to support a variety of tax initiatives and ongoing tax strategy.
• Qualified candidates will be clear, effective, and confident communicators who can collaborate closely with both tax and non-tax colleagues.
• Detail-oriented, accurate, organized, and efficient. We are looking for someone who takes great pride in producing excellent tax work.

Where:

HYBRID. Working from the downtown Vancouver office, very accessible by rapid transit. Full-time in-office during the first weeks of training and onboarding. After that, the Senior Manager can choose to work from their home office an average of 3 days a week.

Hours & Overtime:

This company has a very stable and well-managed tax function with long-tenured employees. Due to this, the work/life balance is much better than the average at Big 4 firms or other global public companies. There is of course overtime for a few weeks during quarter-end/year-end and during provision season, yes, but it’s a reasonable amount. For the majority of the year the new Senior Manager can expect to work a steady work week of around 40 hours, assuming they are highly detailed, deadline-oriented, productive, efficient, and organized.

How Much:

Robust total compensation package- base salary commensurate with US tax skills, work experience level, and when CPA was achieved, likely in the range of $135,000 to $150,000. The Senior Tax Manager will be eligible for a performance-based bonus, relevant professional development support, an RRSP match, strong health benefits, and other employee perks. Please also keep in mind the competitive work/life balance compared to many other corporate tax teams in Vancouver. Please discuss with SWIM.
