In addition, you will take the lead on creating streamlined, efficient sales tax compliance procedures.

- Maintain effective control procedures over all aspects of the sales tax process, including finding and implementing process improvements in company tax procedures
- Complete product taxability analysis to determine if our offerings are taxable in new jurisdictions
- Oversee the customer exemption process and respond to tax notices to resolve tax matters in a timely manner
- Establish and maintain general ledger accounts for tax liabilities and prepare all required tax-related journal entries and reconciliations
- Organize, centralize, and maintain the Corporation's tax documentation and records, including maintaining a tax compliance calendar to track the timely reporting of all indirect tax return
- Support the Manager of Financial Reporting and Tax with sales tax audits and voluntary disclosures

- Has at least 3 -5 years of progressive experience in a tax role
- Holds (or is working towards) their CPA or CA designation
- Works well independently and has a drive to proactively take on new initiatives
- Puts their critical thinking skills to use in order to solve problems and be resourceful
- Loves to learn and grow. They've found (and keep looking for) ways to level up their skills in this field, whether that's through formal education, gaining professional experience, or maybe even building their own business

**These things would also be nice, but we think you could learn them on the job**:

- Experience working with US sales tax
- Familiarity with the technology industry—you might have worked at a tech or SaaS company previously
- Completion of the CICA or CPA Canada In-Depth Tax Program (or you might be enrolled in it right now)
- Comfort working with software platforms such as Avalara AvaTax and Workday
