About the work
We’re building a high-quality library of corporate tax work products. You’ll complete self-contained tax exercises from mock files (trial balances, intercompany agreements, deal documents) and produce the deliverable for each, graded against a rubric.

What you’ll do

  • Build quarterly and annual income tax provisions under ASC 740 with current and deferred calculations and rate reconciliation.
  • Prepare returns and supporting workpapers across federal, state apportionment and international regimes, and forecast cash taxes by jurisdiction.
  • Produce technical computations and studies: GILTI, FDII, BEAT, Pillar Two, 163(j) limitation, and net operating loss and attribute analysis.
  • Build transfer pricing master file and local file documentation with intercompany agreement and policy review.
  • Work transaction tax: diligence of exposures and attributes, structuring memos, and documented tax positions including FIN 48 reserves.

You’re a fit if you have
