You will be a partner to the Tax Team to ensure that legal entity reporting and accounting for tax-related matters are properly assessed, reported and disclosed, both internally and externally.

 

Finally, you will be the Finance lead on different “special funding” negotiations with the governments and other “non- traditional” partners (Québec, Canada, US, etc.).
