You might thrive in this role if you: - Bring 8+ years of experience in global mobility tax, expatriate tax, business-traveler compliance, or a closely related field. - Have experience in both a leading tax advisory firm and an in-house global mobility tax function. - Have built or scaled mobility tax programs in a complex, fast-growing, multinational environment. - Bring knowledge of individual income tax, payroll withholding and reporting, social security, tax equalization or protection, and business-traveler compliance. - Can turn technical requirements into practical policies, controls, workflows, and clear guidance for employees and business partners. - Have a track record of leading complex cross-functional programs, influencing senior stakeholders, and driving decisions through ambiguity. - Use data, systems, and automation to improve compliance, visibility, efficiency, and service quality. - Have experience managing global vendors and implementing mobility tax technology. - Communicate with precision, exercise sound judgment, and balance employee experience with business and compliance needs.
