  • Ensure compliance across multiple U.S. entities and international subsidiaries.

International Collaboration

  • Communicate financial transactions and reporting details to European headquarters.
  • Partner with Latin American operations on accounting coordination.
  • Support cross-border entity reporting requirements.
Qualifications

  • 5+ years of progressive accounting experience with strong exposure to multi-state sales tax.
  • Experience working with multiple legal entities and international reporting structures.
  • Proficiency in ERP systems (Microsoft Dynamics 365 preferred).
  • Advanced Excel skills (pivot tables, lookups, reconciliations, data analysis).
  • Bilingual Spanish required (regular communication with Latin American operations).
  • Strong analytical mindset with demonstrated problem-solving capability.
  • High attention to detail and ownership mentality.
