The posting

  The Director of International Tax Strategy is responsible for designing, governing, and continuously improving FORTÉ’s global tax strategy in support of rapid international growth within a very low tax risk‑tolerance environment. This role serves as the company’s first in‑house international tax leader, providing strategic oversight across income tax, indirect tax, and transfer pricing while ensuring audit‑defensible positions, strong governance, and protection of the Company’s ESOP structure. Serving as the primary international tax advisor to the CFO and executive leadership, the role initially operates as a hands‑on strategic leader with strong influence across Finance, Legal, M&A, and Operations, and will assume increased decision ownership as global tax frameworks mature.  What You Will Be Doing: 1. Global Tax Strategy, Governance, and Risk Management

Own international tax compliance governance, including income tax, withholding tax, and indirect tax compliance across all jurisdictions, leveraging external advisors as appropriate

Establish compliance frameworks, filing calendars, review standards, and controls to ensure timely accurate, and audit defensible filings worldwide

Proactively identify and mitigate tax risks related to global expansion, restructuring, and intercompany activity

Provide executive‑level visibility into material tax risks, exposures, and mitigation strategies

Protect the Company’s ESOP structure through conservative, audit‑defensible tax positions

2. Indirect Tax Leadership (U.S. and International)

Provide direct leadership and oversight of the U.S. Sales Tax team, ensuring scalable processes, strong internal controls, and audit readiness

Ensure the Sales Tax Manager retains ownership of day‑to‑day U.S. sales tax audits, with strategic oversight and escalation support provided by this role

Extend indirect tax governance globally, including VAT/GST exposure, invoicing models, registration risk, and permanent establishment considerations

3. Transfer Pricing Strategy and Implementation

Design, implement, and govern a global transfer pricing framework aligned with business operations and OECD principles

Lead transfer pricing strategy across priority corridors, including EU/UK/Nordics and anticipated future acquisition intercompany activity

Coordinate benchmarking studies, documentation, and local filings through external advisors

Partner with Finance and Operations to operationalize transfer pricing through intercompany billing, markup policies, service catalogs, and legal agreements

4. International Acquisitions and Strategic Growth Support

Support international M&A activity in partnership with the Director of M&A and International Finance

Provide tax structuring input, risk identification, and post‑acquisition integration guidance

Develop repeatable tax integration playbooks to support future acquisitions and global expansion

Enable rapid growth while prioritizing risk mitigation and governance

5. External Advisor and Stakeholder Management

Manage relationships with external tax advisors across multiple jurisdictions

Coordinate international tax audits, inquiries, and examinations through local advisors

Serve as the primary internal tax subject‑matter expert for international tax matters

Educate finance, operational leaders, and executive leadership on tax developments, risks, and implications

  What You Bring to Assure Success:

Bachelor’s degree in Accounting, Finance, Tax, or a related field required

CPA, JD, LL.M. (Tax), or equivalent professional credential preferred

10–15+ years of progressive tax experience with significant international exposure

Demonstrated expertise in international corporate income tax, indirect tax, and transfer pricing

Clear understanding of and experience with legal entity formation, nexus, and permanent establishment rules and regulations

Experience supporting international acquisitions and post‑deal integration

Experience operating in a low tax risk‑tolerance environment with strong governance expectations 

Combination of Big 4 public accounting experience and in‑house global industry experience preferred

Strong understanding of OECD transfer pricing principles, BEPS initiatives, and global tax reform trends

Ability to operate independently in a first‑in‑role environment

Strong communication skills with the ability to translate complex tax issues into practical, business‑focused guidance

Ability to influence senior leaders and cross‑functional stakeholders prior to formal decision authority
