Role OverviewThe Investment Tax team is responsible for overseeing the organization's tax strategy and integrating tax risk awareness into investment and business decision-making. Although CPPIB is exempt from income tax in Canada, it is subject to various foreign taxes on investment returns and operations.
The Investment Tax team, in collaboration with the Enterprise Tax team, navigates the increasingly complex and evolving landscape of international tax regulations to maximize portfolio value by ensuring that investment and business decisions are made with tax considerations in mind. Collectively, the Tax group manages CPPIB's international tax-related strategy, risk management, investment support, and compliance.
Based in the Toronto office, the Managing Director, Investment Tax serves as a vital partner to CPPIB's investment departments and is accountable for providing tax support to investment and non-investment departments operating in Canada and the US (excluding capital markets). In collaboration with the Enterprise Tax team, the Managing Director also addresses tax issues related to CPPIB's operations in Canada and the US. The role encompasses investment structuring support, managing and reporting on tax risk, executing strategic initiatives, and fostering relationships with internal partners, local advisors, government officials, and industry peers in Canada and the US.
Key Responsibilities:
1. Tax Support for Investment Departments in Canada and the US:
- Identify and engage top-tier tax advisors to meet the specific needs of investment teams operating across Canada and the US. Establish relationships, provide feedback, and monitor performance to ensure advisors meet CPPIB's service and value expectations.
- Maintain CPPIB's institutional tax knowledge for Canada and the US (excluding capital markets).
- Monitor changes in tax law or administrative practices and communicate these changes to stakeholders within CPPIB while collaborating to address structuring and operational requirements.
- Provide early-stage tax support as investment teams evaluate new opportunities or dispositions. Conduct preparatory work with external advisors to assess the availability of certain tax privileges and understand structuring alternatives.
- Assist investment teams in complex situations to ensure tax costs, risks, and opportunities are clearly understood, and monitor the quality of final technical opinions and tax ruling submissions.
- Ensure ongoing tax management requirements for investments across Canada and the US align with CPPIB's standards, working with internal and external partners to identify areas for improvement and recommend practical solutions.
- Maintain post-closing internal documentation of investment structures and update for changes in law.
- Conduct strategic reviews of CPPIB's tax filings in Canada and the US, identifying required filings with support from the Enterprise Tax team.
- Document key tax positions taken on investments in Canada and the US to monitor and report on key tax risks in the portfolio.
- Determine CPPIB's exit tax position for investments in Canada and the US for the purpose of recording deferred tax on investments, monitoring and updating these positions for changes in law or expected exit strategy.
- Provide similar support to other regions as necessary to ensure balanced global tax support for CPPIB.
2. Broader Support Across Tax Risk and Strategy:
- Monitor changes in tax law or administrative practices affecting CPPIB's operations in Canada and the US, communicating changes to stakeholders and collaborating with internal partners to address operational considerations.
- Collaborate with other departments to ensure ongoing tax management of CPPIB's operations across Canada and the US meets CPPIB's standards, identifying areas for improvement and recommending practical solutions.
- Propose updates to CPPIB's internal policies and guidelines from a tax and operations perspective to ensure they remain current and relevant.
- Support the Investment Tax group's initiatives with CPPIB's public affairs department to advance tax strategy initiatives in Canada and the US.
- Maintain constructive relationships with tax departments of peer organizations.
- Develop and deliver a renewable training program for investment professionals and other departments to enhance tax awareness and understanding of relevant tax issues.
- Contribute to tax risk reporting to the Board, senior management, and various internal stakeholders related to Canada and the US.
- Assist in various special projects and initiatives.
3. Build and Maintain Strong Cross-Functional Relationships:
- Exhibit confidence and professionalism to work effectively with colleagues across the organization.
- Establish trust with investment departments and core services teams directly supported.
- Develop, maintain, and manage relationships with key individuals across Finance, Operations, Legal, Public Affairs, and Communications, and other Core Services groups.
- Collaborate within the Investment Tax and Enterprise Tax teams to leverage team knowledge and experience, delivering reports to senior management on tax issues, risks, and opportunities across product lines and geographies.
- Promote collaboration and issue resolution within and across teams.
- A minimum of 10 years of tax experience, with significant international and/or mergers and acquisitions tax experience.
- A Chartered Accountant (CA) or CPA designation, a law degree, or comparable professional credentials.
- Demonstrated writing skills, strong analytical skills, creativity in written materials, and strong oral presentation skills.
- A proven ability to think broadly about tax information, assess various factors, and recommend solutions.
- An ability to adapt communication style based on the audience, with a proven skill to synthesize complex technical concepts into plain language for non-specialist audiences.
- Strong organizational/project management skills, with the ability to efficiently progress multiple assignments.
- Excellent attention to detail and consistently high levels of accuracy.
- Demonstrated personal initiative, striving to innovate and build best practices while being attuned to the need for pragmatic solutions.
- Strong impact and influencing skills; ability to influence people with personal style and finesse rather than authority.
- A continuous learning mindset with a desire to stay informed about business trends and tax technical changes.
- Flexibility to work with minimal supervision and adapt to change.
- Exemplification of CPPIB's Guiding Principles of integrity, high performance, and partnership.
- Experience in the private investment industry would be an asset.
At CPP Investments, we are committed to diversity and equitable access to employment opportunities based on ability.
We appreciate all applicants for their interest but will only contact candidates selected to advance in the hiring process.
