Main Tasks & Responsibilities:

• Manage global tax compliance and reporting for equity-based compensation, ensuring accuracy and adherence to local regulations.
• Collaborate with HR, Legal, and Finance to oversee tax aspects of equity programs, including stock options and RSUs.
• Advise on tax strategies for globally mobile employees, ensuring compliance with complex cross-border and social security rules.
