Toronto, Ontario, Canada Amazon Full time

Amazon's Canada Indirect Tax team is looking for a Tax Manager in our Indirect Tax Planning team In this role you will help manage, coordinate, oversee and set the strategy for all Canadian indirect tax planning activities, reporting directly to the Head of Canada Indirect Tax. The role offers many opportunities for you to Think Big, be creative, and to solve complex and interesting problems.

What kind of tax technical do I need?
To be successful in the role you need to have experience in Canadian indirect tax (GST/HST/PST) advisory that includes providing technical and practical guidance on complex Canadian indirect tax topics, understanding impacts of relevant court decisions, and understanding user experience with respect to Canadian indirect tax federally and across all four sales tax provinces. You must demonstrate a proven ability to identify and manage tax risks and execute on projects. Having experience in providing technical indirect tax advice for large, national retail operations would be an asset.

What other skills do I need?
The breadth of our businesses requires the ability to process, organize, and understand complex variables and use cases, the interplay of the tax rules to those variables and uses cases, and present that analysis and recommendations in a clear and logical manner. In this role, you will need to gain a deep understanding of Amazon's various business models and end-to-end systems in order to ensure effective and clear communication of requirements with business partners, stakeholders, and senior tax leadership. You must be comfortable operating independently and providing guidance and direction to non-tax business partners and stakeholders.

What else will I be doing?
You will also have opportunities to support the wider Canada Indirect Tax team with audit, controllership, tax planning and policy efforts. For example, understanding and communicating the impacts of new tax laws or policies to businesses and other stakeholders, understanding compliance, controllership, and audit requirements to ensure comprehensive and clear requirements are provided to business and partner teams. You will work closely with other members of the global tax department to obtain cross-functional tax subject matter input, and ensure coordination of cross-functional tax solutions and approaches.

  2. Developing test plans and sign off on test transactions related to new business and product launches
  3. Providing Canada indirect tax planning input to global projects
  4. Managing complex tax technical planning projects
  5. Identifying and tracking planning and policy trends, both in Canada and globally
  6. Researching complex Canadian indirect tax issues
  7. Drafting tax technical memos and opinions
  8. Liaising with advisors and tax authorities on matters relating to Canadian indirect tax planning and the Amazon businesses
  9. Developing and implementing internal processes to improve efficiency and controllership
  10. Analyzing legislative changes for Canada indirect tax that impact Amazon's businesses
  11. Reporting on planning initiatives and launches to senior leaders
  12. Promoting indirect tax awareness and knowledge internally including liaising with key stakeholders on changes to systems, policies and processes
  13. Assisting with career development of other team members
About the team
In addition to providing high quality tax technical advice on complex or ambiguous areas, our team helps our partners see around corners, thinking through long-term implications of decisions, and the tax user experience. We also help our partner teams move quickly by outlining various options and practical solutions for moving forward. Most importantly, we build lasting relationships with our partners, gain a deep understanding of their businesses, systems, and flows, and have a lot of fun while doing it
