The role operates with a high degree of independence, judgment, and accountability, partnering closely with tax professionals, internal stakeholders, and external auditors.

Culture and Collaboration

• Deliver high-quality service with professionalism in all interactions.
• Collaborate effectively with tax professionals, other administrative staff, and internal and external partners.
• Contribute positively to a respectful, inclusive, and team-oriented work environment.
