Position Description : Protingent Staffing has an exciting contract Tax Manager opportunity with our client located in Santa Clara, CA.

Job Description:

We are seeking a highly experienced US Indirect Tax professional (Manager level) to join our Tax team on a contract basis through April 2026. This position will support the US Indirect Senior Tax Manager by managing day-to-day compliance responsibilities and contributing to audit, accounting, and cross-functional tax activities. The ideal candidate will have 7–10+ years of relevant indirect tax experience, including sales/use and property tax compliance, and be comfortable working in a dynamic, cross-functional environment. While our current systems include NetSuite and Avalara, we are in the process of migrating to SAP and Vertex, so familiarity with these systems is a plus. Some exposure to domestic income tax is a nice-to-have, as the contractor may also support that team as needed.

Job Responsibilities:

Prepare sales and use tax and property tax filings across multiple US jurisdictions using Avalara and NetSuite (transitioning to Vertex and SAP). Coordinate with external service providers to ensure timely and accurate filings. Perform monthly reconciliations of indirect tax accounts and manage compliance calendars. Collect, validate, and maintain resale certificates from customers using current tools and support the implementation of a new resale certificate platform. Assist in maintaining product and service taxability logic within Avalara, and support the Vertex implementation during the SAP rollout. Collaborate with cross-functional teams, including Order Admin, AR, Billing, Procurement, and Operations to resolve tax-related issues. Respond to notices and inquiries from tax authorities and assist in audit support documentation. Provide research support on indirect tax questions, including taxability determinations for new product offerings. Optional: Assist the Domestic Income Tax team on compliance tasks, such as data gathering and workpaper preparation.

Job Qualifications:

A bachelor’s degree in Accounting is required. CPA preferred. 7–10+ years of experience in US indirect tax compliance and reporting (sales/use, property tax). Strong understanding of taxability rules, audit management, and multi-state tax issues. Previous experience in a corporate tax department or public accounting setting. Proficiency with Avalara and NetSuite is strongly preferred. Experience with SAP and/or Vertex is a strong plus. Knowledge of resale certificate management and exposure to related tools. Some exposure to domestic income tax processes is a plus. Strong analytical and organizational skills; ability to manage multiple priorities and work independently. Excellent written and verbal communication skills.

Job Details:
