A global quantitative trading firm with offices in the US and Europe.
Perks are substantial: catered breakfast, lunch, and dinner every day in office, a fully stocked kitchen, a dollar-for-dollar 401(k) match up to half the annual contribution limit with immediate vesting, and frequent firm-wide events.
The Opportunity
This is a growth hire as the tax group expands. The scope spans domestic and international compliance, transfer pricing, ASC 740 and IAS 12 documentation, and meaningful process build-out. There's real room to shape how the function operates rather than inherit a finished playbook.

Preparation of tax return workpapers and information packages for third-party preparation of domestic and foreign returns, covering income tax, VAT, and GST
Coordination with outside firms on federal, state and local, and international returns, including review of all externally prepared filings
Establishment and maintenance of formal transfer pricing with affiliates, including coordination of new studies as required
Documentation and analysis of partnership-relevant ASC 740 and IAS 12 workpapers and memoranda
Examination and documentation of local country tax risk across filing positions and transfer pricing arrangements
Recommendations on the firm's strategic tax direction
Monitoring of developments in federal, state and local tax, and GAAP/IFRS income tax reporting
Responses to information document requests from the IRS and state and city taxing authorities
Cross-functional work on tax issues, regulatory reporting, and process improvement
Process improvements to the current tax function, including identification of new systems and procedures
Policies, procedures, and controls for the tax function
Ownership of the tax compliance deadline calendar
Ad hoc tax research and special projects
What You Bring
Bachelor's degree in Accounting or Finance
CPA required
Public accounting or financial services tax experience
Exposure to partnership taxation and ASC 740; international and transfer pricing experience a plus
Comfort building process rather than maintaining an established one
Strong research skills and the judgment to escalation appropriately
Collaborative approach with the ability to work cross-functionally
Compensation
Competitive base salary plus performance bonus. Strong benefits package including an immediately vesting 401(k) match.
