Oversee and manage tax processing tasks within the team (approximately 50% of the time).
Play a crucial part in hiring talent and grooming them for growth within the team.
Experience in managing performance discussions with team members regularly.

Employee Development

Own attainment of high employee satisfaction and retention; lead the development of programs and initiatives to achieve this.

Ensure a customer-focused approach with excellent communication skills to convey information clearly to clients.
Maintain profitable revenue from extra hours performed on client issues.

Proactive Problem Solving

Be proactive rather than reactive in managing potential challenges and people issues.
Play an important role in all executive and client escalations, proposing appropriate RCAPA for future improvements.

What Youll Need to be Successful

Qualifications

Overall experience of 8-10 years, with a background in a shared services model.
