  • Working knowledge of US withholding tax rules (Chapter 3), FATCA (Chapter 4), treaty benefits, and US forms (W-8 series, W-9), plus information reporting (1042-S, 1099, and 1042 basics).
  • Exceptional attention to detail and commitment to controls; proven track record reducing errors and improving data quality at scale.
  • Strong analytical and problem-solving skills; ability to manage peak cycles and multiple deadlines.
  • Excellent written and verbal communication; can articulate complex, data-driven conclusions to non-technical stakeholders.

Preferred qualifications, capabilities and skills:
  • Experience with tax documentation tools, withholding/tax engines, and custody platforms; familiarity with control frameworks in financial operations.
  • Exposure to corporate actions income processing, interest/dividend events, and cross-border tax topics.
