And we’re counting on your unique voice and perspective to help EY become even better, too. Join us and build an exceptional experience for yourself, and a better working world for all.

Tax departments around the world are being impacted by three macro market catalysts: global legislative change, technology disruption, and the need for more flexible and nimble talent to meet their changing needs. Our Tax and Finance Operate (TFO) practice assists companies in exploring alternative sourcing models that span the continuum from discrete services to outsourcing. The TFO platform of processes, leading-edge technology, and people helps our clients define the right sourcing mix. The TFO practice will enable you to help clients reduce inefficiencies, mitigate risk and drive process improvement within their tax and finance functions. We believe that by managing clients’ tax functions, we can make a critical difference — and you’ll be at the heart of this mission.

The opportunity

EY is currently seeking high-potential Senior Managers to deliver exceptional client service and enable the continued growth of our TFO practice. This opportunity, specifically, is to assist our clients by using our market-leading approach combining extensive local tax and accounting experience with standard global compliance methodology that unlocks the potential of the compliance and reporting function across the entire record-to-report process.

You’ll assist in the migration of statutory reporting and tax compliance processes from local countries to the COE’s and provide subsidiary governance throughout the legal-entity life cycle to mitigate risk and increase corporate transparency.

In addition, you will generate an inventory of statutory reporting and tax compliance requirements, potential risk areas assessments, and develop operating blueprints to implement effective management and visibility over the global compliance and reporting function and help leverage big data and data analytics to align the local record-to-report process and global tax accounting, compliance, controversy, and planning.
