JOB SUMMARY

The National Tax Operations Associate Director will play a key internal role focused on supporting our tax teams with complex partnership returns. This position is designed for someone with strong technical expertise who can serve as a resource to staff and partners, especially when it comes to reviewing challenging returns, addressing technical issues, and helping standardize workpapers and processes across the firm.

It also includes staying current on relevant legislation and court rulings and sharing those insights internally to keep our teams informed and aligned.
