The client is seeking a strategic Vice President of Tax to lead all tax-related aspects of domestic and international transactions, acquisitions, investments, and global structuring initiatives. This executive-level role partners closely with senior leadership and with corporate development, finance, legal, and external advisors to support continued growth across multiple jurisdictions.
In this position, you will advise on complex tax matters involving mergers and acquisitions, cross-border operations, intellectual property ownership structures, financing arrangements, and international expansion activities. Responsibilities include identifying tax-efficient strategies, assessing transaction risks, aligning tax planning with broader business objectives, and evaluating tax implications for acquisitions, investments, joint ventures, reorganizations, refinancings, and divestitures. You will also guide leadership on legislative and regulatory developments, contribute to tax forecasting and scenario modeling, and support acquisition-related tax reporting and restructuring implications.
Key requirements include a bachelor’s degree in Accounting, Finance, Tax, or a related discipline, with CPA, JD, and/or a Master’s in Taxation strongly preferred. The role expects approximately 12+ years of progressive tax experience with significant involvement in M&A and international tax planning, ideally within high-growth, acquisitive organizations, including private equity-backed and sponsor-driven activity. Strong technical expertise in U.S. federal and international tax regulations, transfer pricing, legal entity structuring, and cross-border transactions is required, along with the ability to communicate complex tax concepts to executive stakeholders; experience supporting businesses with significant intellectual property assets, digital revenue streams, media operations, technology platforms, or entertainment-related activities is highly desirable.
